    Default Johnny Tapia biography

    I'm looking to buy Johnny Tapia's biography but it's quite expensive wherever I look such as amazon, play and waterstones.

    So before I pay out for it whats people's feedback on it who have read it?

    I read the article on him in boxing news and thought it would be a good purchase.

    I'll be paying out for it regardless of what any reviews say

    Yeah, I read one titled Mi Vida Loca and it was really good IMO. Not too meticulous in regards to his pro boxing life and adventures but his struggles outside of the ring made this a fascinating read. I am not a voracious reader by any stretch of the imagination but I finished this book very quickly. I would recommend it.

    Hell...they should make a movie about Tapia's life.

    I've seen the Mi Vida Loca book go for about $15 on Ebay.
