“Champions” is the theme song of Sony’s 2016 Hands of Stone

According to Usher:

“When we created ‘Champions,’ I wanted it to represent two icons standing toe-to-toe fighting for their countries. There’s such a relationship that happens within that ring… between Sugar Ray Leonard and Roberto Duran. And I wanted to capture that. I wanted Rubén Blades’ interpretation of it to be as pure so he wrote his part and the dialect to go between Spanish and English. I wanted it to be as authentic as possible to offer some hope.
