The most powerful punching heavyweight champion ever. Just brutal, heavy handed natural born destroyer. He amazing destroyed the undefeated Joe Frazier at 24 years old, Olympic champ and destroyed Norton in his early defences as champ.

They thought he was going to kill Ali in Zaire but that fight made George. Foreman chased the rematch, beat up 5 people in one day, the slugfest with Lyle, destroyed Frazier again but losing to Young retired him to work with the youth and vulnerable.

Then the amazing comeback to try and beat Tyson. George made money and recaptured the tile after a failed attempt against Evader Holyfield. Big George carefully managed who he fought but Moorer was suckered into taking that right hand. To win the world title after 20 years at 45 years of age is truly amazing.

I am sure he made good money selling that George Foreman grill. Big George always talked well about everyone and was a genuinely good guy.

RIP Champ. Up there with the legends.
