I Am Duran: The Autobiography of Roberto Duran

'If a pound-for-pound list of boxing autobiographies existed, this fascinating account of his life would sit comfortably on it' Marc Deanie, Boxing Truth

They called him Manos de Piedra - 'Hands of Stone' - and he blazed a trail through the golden decade of boxing. Crowned world champion at the age of twenty-one, in 1980 he caused one of the greatest upsets in boxing history by defeating the previously unbeatable Sugar Ray Leonard. The legend of Roberto Durán was born.

But with fame came the outrageous parties and, out of the ring, he lurched from living like royalty to bankruptcy. Then came the debacle of the infamous 'No Mas' rematch with Leonard, which he confronts here for the first time.

Durán came from nothing and changed the world. This is the autobiography of one of boxing's most iconic legends.

'He was a beast, an animal, a rampaging monster, a man whose only thought was to hunt down and destroy his opponent. He was death on legs, the fifth horseman of the apocalypse, terror given form' Guardian
