Mi Vida Loca: The Crazy and Unbelievable Life of Johnny Tapia

anyone read it? is it any good? I have heard quite alot about his crazy life

Legend....

Great book, and even a greater fighter.....

If you look at his record and SEEN him fight in his haye days you could see signs of greatness. Just like in the case of many other fighters.....

I like him and hes probably the one boxer that defines 'Good sportsmen Conduct' (IN THE RING) ;)
IMO he falls in that "What could have been" category

will get it in next few days, lookin 4ward 2 reading it

He got robbed in the Ayala fights, never saw him at his peak after that.
