RIP Mr. Foreman!
I know and so sad. One of the true Greats!
I miss him. I wasn't around for his prime but I knew him as a loveable character. I saw the documentary When We Were Kings which was great, and it's interesting to see how much his personality changed as he got older.

I remember staying up late many nights with the TV on and watch his George Foreman Grill infomercials.

I was a fan in the 70s, and was disappointed when he lost to Ali. How he used that to turn his life around is really one of the great sports stories of our time.

God bless him. He was truly one of a kind.

I think he has like 10 kids from multiple ladies and all 5 of his sons were also named George too. I read the rationale for naming all his boys the same was that since he got hit so many times by other boxers that he cannot remember names, so he went with his name for all the boys.
