George Foreman, a two-time world heavyweight boxing champion and Olympic gold medalist, has passed away at the age of 76. His family announced his death in a statement, stating that he died "surrounded by his loved ones." Foreman's career spanned multiple fields, including athletics, pastoring, and business. He is best known for his legendary rivalry with Muhammad Ali, which culminated in the famous "Rumble in the Jungle" bout in 1974, which he lost. Foreman also holds a second world heavyweight title, having knocked out Michael Moorer in 1994.

    1. George Foreman is dead. What a GREAT FIGHTER!!! He had, without question, the heaviest and biggest punch in the history of boxing. With the exception of Ali, when you got hit, you went down.

    1. He was a knockout artist in the ring, and it was a pleasure getting to know him not only as a boxer but as a man. After leaving the ring, he turned into an amazing businessman — I even bought one of the first George Foreman grills!

    1. Rest in peace, George Foreman. Your legacy lives on, champ.

    1. The first time I didn't believe it. When you fight for the heavyweight championship of the world it does feel unbelievable, it doesn't feel like you're really there, it could be a dream. 'You're going to wake up soon, you don't belong in the ring with these guys.'
    2. What I do is fall in love with every product I sell.
    3. I tried boxing just to show my friends that I wasn't afraid.
    4. He hit me with a quick one-two, knocked me down to the canvas and my whole life changed. I was devastated. Little did I know I would make the best friend I ever had in my life.
