They called him 'Hands of Stone'. In his own words, and for the
first time, Roberto Duran tells his unbelievable story in I Am
Duran: The Autobiography of Robert Duran. From the mean streets of
Panama to the bright lights of Las Vegas, blazing a trail through
the golden decade of boxing, Duran, in unflinching form, dispels
myths and lays bare the cost of conquering the world. He also
returns to the debacle that entered sporting folklore during his
rematch with Sugar Ray Leonard, when he uttered the infamous words
'no mas' - no more. Starting life in abject poverty as the
illegitimate son of a serving US soldier, Duran quickly realized
that his fists could both protect him on the streets and put food
on the table. His reputation in and out of the ring travelled the
corridors of boxing power on the day, for a bet, he knocked down a
horse with a single punch. From his stunning debut in New York to
the glorious defeat of Sugar Ray Leonard, the world titles and the
chaos that ensued after the No Mas encounter, Duran's explosive
life in the ring was matched only by the volatility outside of it,
as he lurched from kingmaker to bankruptcy, before the ultimate
ending of a bloody comeback and, finally, redemption.
