    Ssadly, his wife found him dead in their bedroom. Police confirm his passing.

    Ferocious fighter, unfortunately he couldnt beat his battles outside the ring. No fighter had a more pertinent nick name than johnny - mi vida loca.

    RIP Johnny.........carried a lot of burden thru a bad life on his shoulders......some people have a horrific upbringing that we honestly have no idea how they survived as long as they did........a great warrior in & out of the ring.
