    Can not wait for this. The preview was hard to watch, knowing that he is no longer here. Most badass fighter since Duran. Not sure we will see the likes of a Johnny Tapia again..

    I like Tapia too, but it's hard for a 115 lb, light punching fighter to be the Most badass since Duarn.

    Are you serious? First off, he was 59(30KOs)-5-2. I wouldn't say he was a knockout artist, but he certainly had respectable power. He also had an iron chin. But what makes him a badass is that he overcame a lot and always came to fight. Always confident in the ring and loved fighting. He was everything you could want in a fighter. If hes not a badass fighter, I don't know who is.
