Duran is one of the greatest fighters of all time........simple as that!!!!!!!!

I'm panamanian and you can see him everywhere in town, and he is always humble to sign autographs and pictures with people, funny and friendly man.

I love Roberto Duran. He’s immortal. May God bless you mr. Duran.

One and only, Roberto Duran!..

Duran was a master fighter....aggressive AND defensive.....one of THE Greatest!!!!!

Tremendous interview! My Dad had the distinct pleasure to have been in the company of Roberto, after the Pazienza I fight. He stated that Duran was the most gracious and sincere man!! He was his idol as a boy, and he still loves and admires this man. God bless the greatest pound for pound fighter of all time, Roberto Duran.

Duran's fight against Iran Barkley was a master class of fighting......

He is a true legend long may he live and be happy

ONE OF THE GREATEST

Big up Mr . Roberto Duran much respect to u sir

Watching this interview Duran cannot stay still. He remembers everything.

Top 5 of all time. Would've been a top fighter in any era.

The Hand’s of Stone is such a Legend.He is one of most beloved Warriors.God Bless Mr.Robert Duran.🙏

Greatest lightweight ever! What a fighter with heart and skill and power! I loved to watch him and if you fought him (Sugar Ray) fighters were in trouble! Just a hunter and instinct to destroy. Wow! Unreal!

His hair still fresh hands of stone!

Loved to watch Duran fight I think Tyson learned a lot from Roberto as soon as he closed the distance hard shot to the liver then upper cut to the chin so glad to see he's still well when he beat sugar Ray Lenard I almost ran my head into the ceiling fan great fight.

I have the book, very crazy life story...such a gifted and brutal but good person in heart....Duran will always be my toughest hero

Best Latino fighter ever!

great to see that he still appears to have all his marbles.

Awesome precise translator

Hardass,,great fighter..

His greatest fight was the 1st fight against Sugar Ray! What a performance!

It’s crazy that he used to crash on my dads couch when they would get drunk crazy I didn’t know till now how much of a legend he was

Ali said at 135lbs he`d dodge him in a street fight. Perhaps the greatest Lightweight.

Wow what a legend!

This should have millions of views, hard to find many interviews in English with this legend

Hi, Pound for pound, I think Duran was the hardest hitting fighter. He fought higher than his weight class. It was truly awesome to watch him fight. I watched the Leonard/Duran Bout live. Wow! Peace

The mindset of a Lion

Good quality interview, man. Great questions! Edit: and great translator too

🖤 Great interview 🎩

Legend

Ese hombre es puro, no tiene que ver con nadie. Que grande!

I remember that fight with Hearns. Duran entered the ring making the weight ok, but there was no muscle tone, he didn't look in good shape and Hearns looked amazing, focused and ready. Hearns took Duran very seriously and he said that he would take Roberto out in two. Did he really believe that he actually could do that?Duran didn't seem to have a stragedy. He at least should've done much better. He was careless and paid the price. Definately over confident also. Hagler on the other hand, knew what he needed to do. He was focused, and knew that if Hearns got to hit him with the punches that Duran took; that he too, might go the same way. Hagler had to get to Hearns and hit him hard and to get him to fight. He got Tommy really angry and Tommy fell into Marvin's trap. On this occasion, Hearns lost focus, my God, if you can knock Duran out like that, you can do it to anybody is what he maybe thought. Hagler knew the danger. Don't hang about with Tommy Hearns around. Duran had the most illustrious career and at his best, as he was with Leonard in Montreal, unbeatable. He was the most enigmatic. Hearns was the hardest single puncher and a wonderful boxer, but if he got hit hard and clean, he could go, few ever got the chance though! Leonard was a super stylish, hard punching boxer and was the darling of the sport and he in my opinion didn't beat Marvin. I also think Tommy got got the edge on him during the second fight, but a legend nevertheless. Marvelous Marvin Hagler was one of the greatest middleweight's of all time, but unfortunately he wasn't given the credit that he deserved. It wasn't Leonard's fault, but to beat the champ, the challenger has to what Roberto did to Ray in Montreal at least. Ray, Roberto, Marvin and Tommy were the real Fab Four. Sorry, John, Paul, George and Ringo.

Duran eres el mejor de todos los tienpos

ONE OF MY HEROS..

eres lo máximo Roberto,Dios te Bendiga!!!!!

Listen to how well he speaks. Listen to Tommy Hurns speak. Say what you want about no mas but he is a smart and to this day a sharp man.

Excellent absolutely excellent human being,,very professional even after all downs and failures and highs n above he still kept a true champions attitude and proved to be thy best light weight of all time’s,,q viva mano de pierdas Roberto duran el fenómeno 💪🏽💪🏽👑💪🏽💪🏽

It’s amazing how a guy who was undersized against world-class opposition was able to dominate the ring.

Bro, EXCELENT QUESTIONS @fighthubtv

Duran manos de piedra un grandeeeeeee

Duran's personality was shaped by having been born in a slum with no father around and being having to fend for himself . So those experiences made him very hard but he still always had a soft compassionate side.

Much respect

👍🏼 Excelente Durán

WHAT A MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Legendario roberto duran idolo..great boxer in the world..mabuhay ka!.

la leyenda del box

It's nice to see those old hard guys smiling, reminiscing on now ancient battles.

If Duran and leonard hearn and hagler wil be fighting now they would be multi millioners those was real boxing matchs

The best latin american fighter ever, "Hands of Stone" Duran.

Ali and Duran are my favorite fighters of all time.

Great job Marcos Villegas

When is the Documentary or flick coming out?

The greatest with Mike and Ali

Most ex-boxers seem to be drunk but its the neurological damage caused by each ko or punch to the head that they've suffered. Its the only sport that makes a winner by causing neurological damage to the opponent. But he was the best ever to do so

Offensively aside, Duran was one the best defensive fighters in the history of Boxing.

Leonard’s camp mainly A Dundee.knew after Duran Leonard 1 ….That Duran would celebrate win in excess and gain a lot of weight. So they made ultimatum for immediate rematch . Knowing the difficulty losing weight would entail . ‘’ Now or never “ was Leonard’s camp demand. So to make weight Durans camp used diuretics.. Which led to stomach issues before the bell even rang .

BEST LIGHTWEIGHT OF ALL TIME - SIMPLE

The GOAT!

I gotta see the movie

What do these people mean when talking about taking risks? Who enters the ring risk-free? The way you train and fight makes the difference in the ring. If you are sluggish and less skilled you get into a tough fight. If you train, hard and well will high level of skills you fight your way and you get opponent to follow. Period.

Greatest LIGHTWEIGHT of all-time. Top 5 overall, all time. FACTS! If he only had his Lightweight career, which was overshadowed by Ali's career & his fellow Heavyweights, he's top 5 all time. Fought in 5 decades! After Lightweight, was already past his prime! Top 5 all time great, PERIOD.

So many fighters abuse their bodies with drugs and alcohol and whatever else if Duran would of taken better care of himself he would of been the greatest in every weight class he fought

I remember reading an interview with Angelo Dundee, Sugar Ray Leonard's trainer. He said that Duran was notorious for partying after fights. So Dundee asked for another fight between Leonard and Duran, knowing Duran would not be prepared. It's too bad Duran spent so much time partying. Who knows how great he truly could have been, knowing how great his career was as it is.

manos de piedra👍

Don piedra

i wanna know how muchray arcel helped him as a boxer. senor roberto , are you here to tell us?

Duran said that it wasnt risk taking, but back then if you wanted a million dollars you had to figth a top dog, and today you dont have to figth a really dangerous opponent to make that kind of money.. but it has nothing to do with being a risk taker or wanting to prove you were the most macho, but as a result of the economically more rich times of today

One of Durans greatest strenghts was his ablility to take punishment and keep going. I think this shows itself even in his life after boxing.

Any fighter can run to avoid punches like Leonard and Ali,You can move your head around and make people miss like Benitez used to. You could catch punches with your glove like Jack Johnson did . Duran could stay flat footed be right in front of you and you had trouble hitting him let alone hitting Duran solid. I don't know anyone including Ray Robinson that could do what Duran did being flat footed.

Floyd has Duran at #2 greatest fighter of all time! Respects.

GOAT

Prob the best fighter of all time..

With all the new advanced training programs it would be easy for the 4 ie. Hagler etc... would beat most of today's fighters simply because they were mentally tougher!

La Piedra

*The film Hands Of Stone show that he could speak English very well* 🤨

not someone u want to fight

regardless of what he said about what he did before the Tommy Hearns fight he would've never beaten Hitman

He has not aged well. He was very entertaining always and fought some of the best boxers in boxings heyday. He was very elusive in and out of the ring. I say that he was one of the best having fought all the great lightweights, Sugar Ray, Thomas Hearns, Marvin Hagler all superstars at that time. When legitimate boxers were no longer to be found you could always count on Roberto Duran. He had a durable mug, I never once saw him bleed.

Duran is a legend one of my favorite fighters of all time...I still feel bad for him and how they did him in the second Leonard fight not giving him time to train for that fight because they new in shape he was better then Leonard and would have beat him again forget about the third fight he was past his prime..

I Love Duran, my favorite fighter of all time. BUT, Hearns clearly hit him on the chin with the final blow, not the head, as Duran claims here. Just wanted to clear that up.

That fight was close i don't know why he quit they when to card 2 judge have the fight 65 = 64 and the other one 67=66 leonard winning

love these latin fightersl. know english but wont speak it. man is a motherfucking top 2 or 3 lightweight of all time, but he aint losing face. me and you roberto when i speak chinese in china!

ONLY UNTIL NOW DID I DISCOVER THAT HEARNS NEVER GAVE DURAN A REMATCH.

Tommy Herns knoced him out cold. He hit him on the head and chin. The chin shot put him to sleep.

Stick and move hands of stone

tough as nails and sill laughing

Duran has a point a great point on how much boxers made back them to now. Jordan made the same point in basketball and mickey mantle in baseball. You had to be great to stay relevant in the respective sports back then. Today athletes get rewarded first and have no incentive to be great. Athletes in the past were better and had that hunger. Today kids just want to make money and are not disciplined

Better formulated questions than the White House press corp ......

Fuiste valiente pero fuiste el más devil.de sugar.marvin.hearn

Why did have to mention Chavez Jr. Durán dislikes Chavez Jr 😂

Look at his hands...

Need a better translator

Over 40yrs making his money in America and he's never learned English . F'king amazing !

: / I WANT TO CORRECT ROBERTO HERE, ON HIS BELIEF THAT HE HAS NO REGRETS BECAUSE HE THINKS EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IN OUR LIVES IS WRITTEN BY GOD AND HAS TO HAPPEN THE WAYS THEY HAPPEN!!! THIS IS COMPLETELY NOT TRUE! GOD GIVES EVERYONE OF US FREE WILL AND A CONSCIENCE! WE ALL HAVE A CHOICE! WE CANT ALWAYS CONTROL THINGS THAT HAPPEN TO US, BUT WE CAN CHOOSE WHAT WE DO ABOUT THEM! ITS THE SAME IN MATTERS OF LOVE AND WORK, AND FRIENDSHIPS, AND FAMILY TOO! WE CANT CHOOSE WHAT OTHERS DO TO US, BUT WE CAN CHOOSE HOW WE ARE GOING TO REACT TO IT! AND WHAT ROBERTO DID NOT SAY ABOUT THE QUESTION ASKED TO HIM ABOUT THE "NO MAS" INCIDENT WITH RAY LEONARD, WAS THAT HE "QUIT" BECAUSE RAY WAS NOT FIGHTING! HE WAS TAUNTING ROBERTO AND TRYING TO PLAY HEAD GAMES WITH HIM, BUT WAS NOT FIGHTING.. ROBERTO WAS THERE TO FIGHT, NOT TO PLAY GAMES.. SO HE GOT TIRED OF RAYS SHIT AND SAID, NO MAS! AND WALKED OUT OF THE RING.. I THINK HE WAS CLEARLY MAKING A STATEMENT.. HE DIDNT ACTUALLY "QUIT".. ROBERTO WOULD NEVER "QUIT".. HE JUST GOT REALLY FRUSTRATED AND TIRED OF RAYS GAMES.. RAY WAS LIKE A BRATTY KID, AND HE WAS AFRAID OF ROBERTO.. IF YOU WATCH THE FIGHT, YOU WILL SEE HE DOESNT REALLY "FIGHT" WITH ROBERTO, HE STAYS AWAY AND TRIES TO GET POINTS WHENEVER HE CAN. BUT HE DIDNT WANT TO FIGHT WITH ROBERTO.. FOR GOOD REASON TOO! LASTLY, TO GET BACK TO OUR CHOICES IN LIFE? WE NEED JESUS TO FORGIVE US FOR OUR SINS AND TO COME INTO OUR HEARTS, TO SAVE US FROM OURSELVES, RECONCILE US BACK WITH GOD OUR FATHER, AND TO HELP TRANSFORM US INTO GODLY PEOPLE! WE CAN DO THESE THINGS OURSELVES! NO ONE IS FORGIVEN FOR THEIR SINS UNTIL THEY CHOOSE TO GO TO JESUS AND ASK JESUS TO FORGIVE THEM FOR THEIR SINS!

I understand both languages very well and to me Duran makes up alot of excuses , mostly all I hear from duran is that he wasn't prepared and that he is stronger and that he can beat whoever easily .... me personally I strongly believe Duran lacks good sportsmanship

🇵🇦🇵🇦❤️

Leonard fought Duran’s fight the first time and lost a close decision. Then embarrassed him in the rematch to the point of quitting. He stopped Hearns with one eye. Then defeated the invincible Hagler as a middleweight. Time the man gets his due!

Yeah right! I guarantee you that it bothers him. When ppl see him, that's one of the main things that comes to mind. Regardless of his many accomplishments, he'll always be remembered by quitting.
