Hands of Stone

As he reaches 20, an American legendary boxing trainer Ray Arcel, who nearly lost his life after being attacked by an assailant sent by the mobster, Frankie Carbo in 1953 in New York City and is now living with his wife Stephanie, notices Roberto's raw talent and punching power and takes the young fighter under his wing, becoming his coach.After his fights through the 70s and 80s, rising through the divisions with phenomenal success (just one loss) he challenges Sugar Ray Leonard, dubbed as the "Fighter of the Year."At the house party, Durán is made aware of Leonard's challenge by his manager Carlos Eleta, but he was intoxicated and reluctantly agrees to the rematch.But in the eighth round, Durán gives up by saying "No más" (English: "No more") to the referee, angering the entire Panamanian community, thus Leonard wins via technical knockout (68–66, 68–66, and 67–66).The website's critics consensus reads: "Hands of Stone's strong cast and fascinating real-life story aren't enough to compensate for a crowded narrative and formulaic script.[17] Owen Gleiberman of Variety magazine wrote: "Gets the job done, but it's hard to escape the feeling that you're watching a routinely conceived, rather generic boxing flick.
