This video is highlights but the reality is that he fought like this all the time

When he was in his prime he was a much different fighter though.

He was fast and slick and used his counterpunching to win fights. At around the end of the second Ayala fight.......he altered the style to be more crowd pleasing.

The version of Tapia that beat Danny Romero.........could not have been beaten by any man under 130lbs in the history of mankind.

Counter uppercut was always his best punch.

He ducked a looping shot and bang.

Two guys broke into his house when he was a child, tied him to a chair then raped and fatally stabbed his mother.
