Accompanying Johnsons homage is a video of a teen Dwayne ringside, watching his father go to work.
I was the boy sitting in the seats, watching and adoring you, my hero from afar.
The boy you raised to always be proud of our cultures and proud of who and what I am.
The boy you raised with the toughest of love.
The adoring boy who wanted to know only your best qualities.

And my empathy turned to gratitude.
Grateful that you gave me life.
Grateful you gave me lifes invaluable lessons.
