Man I didn't know he died. This man was a warrior in the ring. RIP Tapia!
Me either smh
Thank you Lamont for giving Johnny Tapia his flowers 💐 He was a Warrior and a Champ!
8 yrs old having to go thru that😢
That either makes you or breaks you.
His story breaks my heart.
I met Johnny when he stayed at my hotel in big Bear Lake California in the mid 90s. He was there with his wife and Pastor. The pastor told me in confidence he was trying to help Johnny with substance abuse. Johnny invited me to watch him work out at his home there where he had a boxing ring and gym at his residence. Very cordial kind person and his wife was very nice. We went to his home to watch him work out. What I remember is how seriously this man worked out in order to stay in top condition. Brutal. Thank you, Johnny for being so cordial to us.
Hate he let drugs rule him
Johnny was the Most Emotional Fighter I’ve Ever Seen in My Life. Even Iron Mike was a fan a Johnny Tapia ❤
I live here in Albq. New Mex. Tina Ortiz, checking in. My son is in MMA here, cause of Johnny. He is a good fighter. My son is in Jackson's Gym. Keep up the good work Lamont.I see u everyday your videos. .🥊♥️

I thank this is Titos ortiz mom oh man that is cool to see somebody's mom that is famous
Tito Ortiz💪🏼🤩🤟🏼
I met johnnys wife in Albuquerque she was very nice I gave her my condolences 💐 she said thank you so much. I met her 2014 Albuquerque is such a beautiful place
I'm from Albuquerque and was a boxer at San Jo gym in 1988-1991. Johnny, Tiger Fowler, and me would hang out all the time. Fast forward to 2012 I was a boxing coach at Tapias gym with my son who was an undefeated pro at that time was full circle.
I remember meeting Johnny in las vegas 2002 at the sams town hotel and gambling hall i was aye hugh fan of his i got his autograph on my tshirt and cap which i still have such aye great man really humble and it was sad when i heard of his passing 😔 rip Johnny
Your story put him in my top 5. This dude lived a life. Great video 🤟🏿😎
My wrong first impression thoughts of him initially were that he was kind of a punk. But one time my Mom saw/met him at an autograph session and he was so polite, friendly, and kind towards her. He had a hard life situation and I was so sad to see him pass. Rest in peace Champ 🙏
It’s so crazy to think, everyone there were once people, alive, just living life. Then you are just in a hole in the ground, poof gone. We all think about it. And as we age and time is going by so fast, we are so much closer. Okay well have a great night, sleep tight ❤
Sleep tight my ass,I’m almost 40 with full custody of 4 kids. The thought of dying keeps me up at night….
@@TheL1arL1ar- Screen Name aside, there’s no sense in worrying about something you can’t control. Plan ahead, make sure you have life insurance and plans in place for your children. Then, G-d forbid, should the worst happen, your children will be taken care of.
Otherwise, you’re just piling on stress and shortening your own life, friend. In the famous words of Klaus Mikaelson, “Death dances in everyone’s shadow and she doesn’t give a damn. So why give a damn about her?”
Plan ahead and find peace in life. 😊
Take care.
@@sisterspooky I actually am currently looking at life insurance at the moment, oh yeah and since this is RUclips it seems my screen name goes way past just the app….ive had people call me out strangely especially women. And I offer my snap and they get mad and I get called a creep. 😆
He let the drugs get the better of him which led to his ultimate demise
Live one day at a time as the Lord intended. Be grateful for everything. The peace of Jesus will slow down your life and calm all fears and anxiety. Including fear of death. "Do not worry about tomorrow; tomorrow will take care of itself. Sufficient for a day is its own evil" Matthew 6:34 God Bless ❤️🙏
Used to love watching him fight, may he rest in peace
Do one on Salvador Sanchez, one of my favorites. I loved Tapia, too. He lived his life, though. Very entertaining, never quit.😊😊😊
I remember his fight with Danny Romero both from Albuquerque and it's by far the biggest combat sports event in the history of New Mexico
Born n raised in Albuquerque, he will always be a legend here, all my family is buried at that cemetery some just feet away from Tapia, I enjoy your all your videos, I appreciate you giving him his respect , Thank you 🙏🏻💙
We sure loved this guy!!
I'm from Albuquerque. Thanks for the story about the great boxer.
I grew up in Westgate and yes, I have visited that graveyard a lot. Jonny Tapia will always be Albuquerque 's champion . Hi from Edgewood NM
I remembered watching Johnny Tapia fights back in the 1990's. He definitely was a beast in the ring.
Great video for anyone who loves boxing.
Tapia one of the greatest boxers Berrerra another great boxer remember he shut down The Prince Naseem Boxing 🥊 was great back then .I miss those days God Bless You Lamont
I wonder who built the ring for his grave, that was a good idea. He must have loved Dr Pepper.
🇵🇦 Roberto "Hands of Stone" Duran 🇵🇦 one of the four Kings of boxing.
He always put his blood sweat and tears into boxing he was amazing!
Wow his resting place is awesome. The pictures and info on his fights adds to the beautiful place. RIP Johnny Tapia.
My birthday is February 13, '60. Always nice to see a birthday brother or sister.
Pillar of a time when boxing was the real deal Unc 👊🏿
Born in 67 same as me
I didnt know tapia passed ! He was great ! Also pernell whitaker.hector camacho.
Such great fighters !
I remember him, he was a good fighter.
Never heard of him rest in peace 🙏 Johnny tapia
Johnny! You're great . Rip 🙏
He definitely was a fighter in and out of the ring. Lol I had forgotten until I watched this video that he and I share a bday. Great work 🥊
I loved watching Tapia box, he always put on a good show and never stopped. Maybe it was because we were younger back then and had more time to watch but boxing seemed to be better.
Great video. Rest in peace johnny & his mom. So tragic 🙏🕯️✝️🌻
I didn't know that he passed! What a fighter. I agree with you 💯 Lamont.😢
Stay safe out there, and rock on, Lamont!💜✌
He was amazing, Thanks 👍 for this video ...
Gracias Johnny 😮😢
Interesting...never heard of him...thanks!👍
He was so exciting to watch.
@Goldie… 😮 🙀 Wow! Are you really young or something???
They were some of the best years of boxing. I remember the Tuesday night fights and I believe later Thursday night fights.
Thank u Lamont! He’s one of my favorite! Him and Morrison were on mine
Johnny tapia was a bad ass boxer. RIP champ
Rip🙏🙏
I like that drone zoom out at the end
Great video. I know at the end he didnt have much $ to blow but he had money. It's nice they were able to give him that extravagant grave site. Hes #1 in funeral visitation sites for me. Johnny was a wild one and he wouldnt listen to anyone, but he was so humble. They did alot of stuff to f with him including the DNA dad thing and his ex marrying his step bro or something like that. Johnny lived a crazy life. It's sad he went to soon.
Yeah 💙💜💙💜
Hi Mary
Rip champ !!!
This cemetery looks like it is taken care of there is a lot of cages around the graves to keep crazy people from stealing that is so disrespectful. RIP Johnny.
Come visit me Lamont, if your still here. Albq. 😊
Good video bro I was a big fan of Johnny Tapia to thank you for the video.
One of the absolute best that ever did it 🥊
Johnny was one tough warrior.
Wondering why all the gated graves,tapia was great!
Lamont, I thought you said on your channel no Cursing was allowed, but you cursed, the "D" word.
“Diamond dogs”
I didn't know he died either. I watched a few of his fights. He was a passionate boxer! I had no idea that he had such a tough life. Thanks for telling his story!!
Sounds like he was a legend Johnny Tapia rest in peace champ
I live in Albuquerque and I remember the day that he passed away
He had a near death experiennce and recounted about going to the good place . I think that he finally found the true peace he never had here .
Legend
Great boxer. Tragically taken. Xx❤❤
Thanks for that Story Lamont I Had a Dramatic day Yesterday i Work at a YMCA and the City Pool is Across the parking Lot From Us and we have a Park Behind us So Anyway a Grandma Came in and Ask if We Seen Her Grand Daughter She Took Off Away from her she was 2 Years old We found her in the Park Safe and sound i love Kids I,m Single At Work i Enjoy Working With Kids Even though i Clean The Place i still feel like there my kids maybe some day i will find a Single Mom I,m from Ohio
One of the top boxers of all time
Great fighter=Check...entertaining fighter=check=tormented=sadly yes... I loved the guy....found out his trainer was actually his father in later life. His wife saved him. Yes those body shots are Mexican fighters go to and they will usually do the trick. I am 71 and watched all of Tapia's fight's. Thanks for this reminder of one of the greats.
Thanks Lamont. Very interesting indeed. Very good presentation.
i just saw this i cant believe he passed away at only 45 years of age ..........
Very good video!!
Ah Yes Johnny .My Godfather use to love watching him..and My Aunt when alive told me when he was younger she would talk to him .The boxing building where he trained I believe is still there it was for awhile run down but then was fixed up and still in operation... I never seen him but I am sure he knew lots of my cousins..Thank U for this ..😎🌶🌶
Tapia is an excellent documentary. Glad to see he has such a fitting resting place. Stay safe out there, Lamont 🫶🏼
Thanks you for sharing
That’s an ugly cemetery. RIP to all the people buried there.
I loved Johnny Tapia, but this wasn’t one of those. I’m surprised he died at 45 situations. This was more like I can’t believe he made it that long.
Can't avoid those chemtrails. Great story
Yes.
Johnny " My Vida Loca " Tapia !!!🙋🏽♂️
Great video
A warrior in life and a born destroyer in the ring #LegitAF
another great video
R,I,P❤
Sooo- Sad-🕊️💐🦅
RIP Johnny
Awesome vid, Lamont. If you do one of these for a boxer next time you’re in SoCal, I know everything about boxing. Would love to collaborate then.
Mi vida Loca
Lamont my dad’s family is from Albuquerque NM we have alot of “Tapias”, and are related to him. I love going to visit family there often in the barelas neighborhood where my dad grew up. I love the food, people, and the history! Where is that graveyard? I’d love to go see it next time I am in town 😊🌶️🌵
You may have already left, but Bob Foster should be buried in that area too. Another Albuquerque (Boxing) legend from the 60s and 70s.
Good video, man. Tapia and Gotti, were a lot alike. Lots of heart and gave their all in the ring. Definitely two of my favorite boxers!
Hey pimp ..your so right!!!!
Lamont could you do a story on the VON ERICHS ?? So much talent, such a tragic story
Hello Lamont ❤😊❤✌️💯
What a sad cemetery - no green on the ground, little flowers, some bushes, only sand to walk on.
The best boxer of all time ever was Salvador Sanchez, the best ever he was a complete boxer and unfortunately died in a car accident when he was just 23 years old. A lot of mystery behind his death many say he was murdered by big people from Mexico. Look up this guy Lamont you'll be amazed from his story and the way he died. They say they found his break lines cut!
Edit: He was the best to ever do it on both offense and defense he was undefeated when he passed, even the greats in the likes of Mike Tyson and Roy Jones have mentioned he's the best to ever do it!
Me either and barely learning of his death until i saw this video
Poom poom poom, he was great! 😊 Also, I think Marco Antonio Barrera was definitely top 20! I forget but I think he'd beat Pacquiao? Or at least he gave him a good fight
Chicano boxing 🥊 legend 🇺🇸🇲🇽
GREAT 👍 CHAMPION 😊
Lovely voice Lamont😂
Barrera had "Tapia" on his trunks
Hey
Barrera is top 50, I think… I watched him come up at the Forum. One of the few boxers from a rich family.
