Great fight, but what a sad story
Happy heavenly birthday champ 🙏❤️🙏

On this day...

'My mother was murdered when she was 32. I didn't think I would outlive her. I never thought I'd make it past my own 32nd birthday. I didn't even want to make it past her 32nd birthday. After turning 31, I could feel that time was coming on. It started growing in the back of my mind, and it was always there in my head. I was counting down the days, weeks, and months to the time that I would be the age she was when she died. I started to feel that time was running out for me.'

Three division world champion and International Boxing Hall of Fame inductee, Johnny 'Mi Vida Loca' Tapia would've been celebrating his 56th birthday today.

Happy Heavenly Birthday, Champ. Rest in Peace.
