The Life and Legacy of Boxing Icon George Foreman

After defending the belt twice, George, 25 years old and unbeaten, faced Muhammad Ali in 1974 in one of the most memorable boxing matches ever, coined “The Rumble In The Jungle,” in Zaire. Ali shocked Foreman, winning by 8th round TKO.

Years later, the men would become very close. When Ali died in 2016, George told us … “I lost my best friend.”

In 1977, Foreman retired and became an ordained minister shortly after hanging up his gloves. George dedicated his life to God … and preached at a Houston area church.
After a 10-year hiatus from the sport, George announced his comeback in at nearly 40 years old in 1988.
