Glen Tapia stepped up Saturday night in Atlantic City, against James Kirkland in a junior middleweight scrap. Tapia got the short end of things, as foe James Kirkland exhibited little to no ring rust and a stunning reservoir of energy after a long layoff. Tapia had his moments in Round 1, and stunned the Texas-based Kirkland in the third, at the ballroom in Boardwalk Hall. But from then on the deck was stacked against the kid from Jersey who’s made no secret of his fondess for the career path of the late Hall of Famer Arturo Gatti, who prided himself on walking through of wall of fire to land a power punch.
