    That's pretty cool and much deserved for the living legend, Duran. I'm definitely watching this movie.

        One of the greatest Latino fighters of all time? Duran IS the greatest Latino fighter of all time, no question.

          Can't believe DeNiro's 72 years old. I have to watch Raging Bull again.

                Duran had such a unique fighting style. Constant head and upper body movement, close right hand to cheek and his footwork...I really hope Edgar Ramirez studied the **** out of his style and that he doesn't come out like a Rocky movie, all wild winging punches and getting punched in the face. That's what made Duran so special and I really hope that gets captured.

                There'd be nothing worse, at least for boxing purists, to see them portray Duran as a face first brawler without any style or substance. That'd be the ultimate tragedy for this movie to me.

                  That time of the month is it?

                  No need to get so emotional. It's just a movie premier.

                      Can't wait to see this. Not a fan of usher's acting hopefully he doesn't have many speaking lines
