Great stuff showed the paradox that was Johnnie Tapia. He loved and lived life to the fullest yet when down he an equal yearning to die. Tremendous amount of charisma such an outward show of a love of life yet his inner demons wreaked havoc on his life when he was away from the ring. Joy to see his ferocious tenacity in the ring then the unbridled enthusiasm and exuberace displayed post fight. The way he hugged, kissed and lifted his team and opponents was an eye opener. What a life, what a dighter. War Tapia, RIP

I didn't know he had found his dad, that was pretty cool to see.
Johnny's half-brother, son of his dad was in prison for 14 years for second-degree murder and drug trafficking. After Johnny's death, he married Johnny's widow, Teresa. They divorced this year.
