    Been reading four kings, would like to read more on Duran. Should I get I am Duran or Hands of Stone?

    hands of stone is one of the better boxing books I've read, not read the other one.

    I wouldn't necessarily trust anything Duran says at face value, so the Guidice book is probably your better bet.

    Both Duran books are really good. Especially his autobiography.
