Really?? Did not know that.what about his mom?
I read somewhere that Johnny Tapia birth name Is John Lee Tapia.these guys are worse than hollywood.

ok i'm confuse, so his last name is tapia? so that means his mothers maiden name isn't tapia cause it can't be since tapia is marcos' last name it can't be his middle name too then right?

marco could have officially used his mother's maiden name if Tapia is his mother's maiden name. it's common in the Philippines if your parents are not married.

actually a lot of mexicans (that I know) will unofficially put their mothers maiden name after their official last name...

so that explains the Tapia after the last name.thanks getup. cc +2.

HahA Must be tough on Jorge anytime he's raised as a subject it's immediatly changed to his brother

ffs, it's a spanish thing hence a mexican thing, your kids take BOTH parents last name.

the greater ones always prevail like the case of Manny and Bobby PAcquaio. Bobby will always be remembered as the brother of Pacman, not as Bobby. ^-^

Same with:
Matthew and Ricky Hatton
Marvin Hagler and Robbie Simms

ahaa....that's the reason it's also common in the Philippines. We were under Spain for more than 300 years.
