Panamanian and world boxing legend Roberto "Mano de Piedra" Duran has been seen in images that were published on social networks during an event with Fiterman Sports Group in Chantilly, Virginia along with another legend, Mike Tyson signing autographs and taking photographs of fans over the past weekend.

"Good morning family. Every day I am improving, and grateful to my God and all the loving messages from him. Here I am sharing with my friend that I love Mike Tyson very much. Next time I'll go shirtless. They are wanted for free. “Hands of Stone,” wrote the former champion of four weight divisions.

"Manos de Piedra" Durán would have had a complete atrioventricular (AV) block, which is a cardiac disorder that affects the system of electrical impulses that control the rhythms and frequency of heartbeats, and he had to have a pacemaker implanted weeks ago in the Santo Tomas Hospital in Panama City.

Duran and Tyson have been very close for several years and there has been a lot of appreciation, respect and friendship between them since the 1980s.
