About this listen
George Foreman, the legendary two-time heavyweight champion, has passed away at age 76, according to a family announcement on his Instagram page reported by AOL and Field Level Media. The boxing icon peacefully departed Friday surrounded by loved ones, with no cause of death disclosed, leaving fans mourning a life of faith, family, and ferocious fists. His family hailed him as a devout preacher, devoted husband, loving father, proud grand and great-grandfather, marked by unwavering humility and purpose.
Tributes poured in swiftly from boxing royalty. Mike Tyson tweeted condolences, saying Foremans contribution to boxing and beyond will never be forgotten, per AOL. Top Rank promoter Bob Arum called him a great friend to my entire family, devastated by the loss of this family member. Another piece in AOL reflected on his arc from boxing monster to cuddly veteran, his remarkable story now etched eternally.
Amid the grief, anniversaries of his epic past resurfaced. BoxingNews24, Ring Magazine, and Boxing247 celebrated the 50th anniversary of his brutal 1976 slugfest with Ron Lyle at Caesars Palace, a five-round chaos of knockdowns that set an unmatched heavyweight standard. Foreman himself reflected in a Spreaker podcast on it as one of my finest moments, a redemption after his Ali defeat in Zaire that rebuilt his shattered confidence amid mental turmoil, lawsuits, and exhibition oddities.
No fresh public appearances, business moves like his famed Grill empire, or social media mentions beyond the obituary emerged in the past few days from reliable sources. All eyes now turn to legacy retrospectives, with this seismic news poised to dominate his biography forever. Rest in power, Big George.
