A Knock-Out: Gael Garcia Bernal will play boxing legend Roberto Duran in Jonathan Jakubowicz's Hands of Stone. Al Pacino is reportedly circling the role of boxing trainer Ray Arecel in the biopic, and one-time Vulture hero Ben Silverman is producing! An excellent line-up, so far.

Never make a biopic when the person is still alive.

I wish in these athletic biopics they wouldn't try to recreate fight scenes. It just doesn't work. Just show fight footage and pick it up with the actors in the corner between rounds etc.

I don't mind it if go over the top with it, instead trying to be "realistic." Kind like fight scenes in Raging Bull. Totaly over the top, but greatly done.

I love seeing these movies being made. It only helps boxing and gives legends like Duran exposure to new audience that didn't grow up on him
