With all of us, it's going to happen sooner or later, but with this guy, I guess it was obvious it was going to be sooner rather than later.
I hope he finds the peace he could never find in life.
He was one of my all-time favorite fighters.

Great fighter and even greater personality. Terribly self destructive though. Johnny was a fun-loving guy, to the extreme.
