I won't say I like this one any better than the 2k14 version, but I certainly don't like it any less. I think, though, that's more because of the feelings the different versions evoke. The 2k14 version makes me feel more hopeful and happy and energetic, while this one gives me more feelings of determination and drive and triumph. If this song was the main theme for a movie, I'd say that this is what would play while the hero has a training montage or emerges victorious while 2k14 might play as either the opening or during a carefree period before the main conflict arises.
I'm probably over explaining a bit, but there you go. Either way, Flying Free is my favorite song of yours by far!
