About this listen
George Foreman has stayed out of the spotlight this week with no new public appearances business deals or social media posts from the boxing legend himself.

Times of India reports the historic venue nod has reignited chatter about Foremans knockout defeat where Ali pulled the rope-a-dope to victory in front of a billion viewers. The East African on February 18 called it an echo of that classic showdown pitting Foreman against Ali in the same steamy African city.
Adding fuel Understandably newsletters by Bill Murphy Jr on February 17 and 18 revisited Foremans own words praising Ali as the greatest for sparing a knockout blow as he stumbled in the eighth round. Foreman reflected Probably the best punch of the whole fight was never landed adding a poignant layer to their rivalry-turned-friendship that saw Foreman reclaim the heavyweight crown at 45 after becoming a minister. HITC confirmed the Tyson-Mayweather details spotlighting the venues Rumble ties without any direct Foreman involvement.
