1. What was Johnny Tapias 1st nickname? Don't know
2. He is the only Japanese Bantamweight to defend a World title more then 4 times. Who is he? Hozumi Hasegawa, knew that one.
3. As an amateur he defeated Joan Guzman, Steve Molitor & Jose Navarro. Who is he? Omar Narvaez, although I needed other answers to confirm it.
