Hands of Stone

No mas. No surrender

This boxing biopic follows the life of Panamanian boxer Roberto Duran, who made his professional debut in 1968 as a 16 year-old and retired in 2002 at the age of 50. In June 1980, he defeated Sugar Ray Leonard to capture the WBC welterweight title, but shocked the boxing world by returning to his corner in their November rematch, famously saying the words ’’no mas’’ (no more).
