His chin was something else. Was an all-rounder.....pace, hard punch, head movt, leg work, chin, reach-use |

judewrites:He became incredibly popular in the 90s and was able to accumulate a wealth of almost ~$300M in the process, almost 40 times more than his total earnings from boxing. |

Big George Foreman. |

femi4:He retired first in 78 or 79, then came back in 1988 or so. About 10 years apart. Still returned to win a World title. |

My oh my. A legend is gone. What a man, what a mountain, what a phenom. These are the folks that made pro boxing the number one combat sports of the century. Before corruption and division in the ranks of the governing bodies ruined everything. Today soft assed Brits are being knocked around by Eastern European paperweights calling themselves world champions.....sad. |

judewrites: Judolisco:He was very very popular. He was one of the greats that dominated the heavyweight division in the 1970s. I watched his fights on Big Fights Of The Decade with Chuka Momah on the NTA in the 1980s. He retired and then came back and was even more popular. He became the oldest man to win a world heavyweight title. He became a popular pastor. He had his own situation comedy in the 1990s. And of course he gave his name to the George Foreman Grill. I think he made even more money in the 1990s than he made in the 1970s. He was everybody's favourite uncle in the '90s. |

Had one of the heaviest punches, pound-for-pound in boxing history. If he hit you just once, you will feel it. RIP Big George Foreman |

Judolisco:He wasn't as popular as Mohammed ali, that's what I meant. |

What a loss and what a good memory to look into... There's no champion for Life... |

IrepChrist:SHUT UP AND STOP DISTURBING PEOPLE. WHAT MATTERS IS HOW YOU TREAT YOUR FELLOW HUMANS AND ALL LIFE, NOT WHO YOU CLAIM TO “WORSHIP”. You people go around committing ATROCITIES, bigotry, tribalism, and even supporting the mass murder of innocent Palestinian children, and then you will come out with “JESUS”. Rubbish. What matters is your righteousness, NOT who you claim to worship. God is not stupid. |

vanity upon vanity, whether we do good or bad, we shall all leave this planet one day. if life was endless and one could live forever here on planet earth, then doing rituals or anything for fame and money would have been worth it but alas, no matter how rich or poor you are, yow will leave and within 3 months the same people that cried at your burial will forget totally about you. |

May his soul rest in perfect peace. |
| Re: Great George Foreman Is Dead At 76 by planetx: 2:27pm On Mar 22, 2025 |
Watching those two clips with Ali and Frazier, you can see that the days of true heavyweight boxing are over. When men were not scared to go toe to toe, not the AJ style of boxing of running around the ring afraid of getting hit trying to win on points. |
| Re: Great George Foreman Is Dead At 76 by Iceberg3: 2:43pm On Mar 22, 2025 |
Rest in peace, legend... |
