When asked who he would most like to step into the ring with today, the Panamanian sporting legend known as Manos de Piedra – or ‘Hands of Stone’, said “I would like to step into the ring with Donald Trump to see how many Latin people, how many Latinos he’s going to deport and to see how really strong he is.”

Throughout his campaign for the White House, Trump has taken controversial stances on immigration , repeatedly proposing to build a wall at the Mexican border.

Durán laid down his challenge to Trump as he promoted the Robert De Niro film “Hands of Stone” which charts the boxer’s life.
