The Ghost of Johnny Tapia (Hamilcar Noir True Crime Series)

"If I wake up, I know I'm a success. The day I don't wake up, I know I'll be home. I have one foot on this earth and one foot has crossed over. I didnâ€™t just die, I lived.â€â€•Johnny Tapia

...the ghost of Johnny Tapia lives on.

â€œMi Vida Locaâ€ (My Crazy Life) was Johnny Tapiaâ€™s nickname and his reason for being. Haunted by the brutal murder of his beloved mother when he was a child, fighting and drugs gave him the escape he cravedâ€•and he did both with gusto. In The Ghost Of Johnny Tapia, Paul Zanon, with the help of Tapiaâ€™s widow Teresa, tells the harrowing and unforgettable story of a boxing genius who couldnâ€™t, in the end, defeat his demons.
The Ghost of Johnny Tapia is the second in the Hamilcar Noir series. Hamilcar Noir is "Hard-Hitting True Crime" that blends boxing and true crime, featuring riveting stories captured in high-quality prose, with cover art inspired by classic pulp novels.

From the Foreword:
"Johnny had incredible heart, was such a sweet man, but was also tormented. He had two sides to him. The sweetest, nicest guy, but then the other side which could probably kill you. He was tortured with his addictions, but Johnny was always pure emotion in that ring."â€•Sammy â€˜The Red Rockerâ€™ Hagar, Musician
