George Foreman: Muhammad Ali was bigger than boxing 

Xarina's World Beautifully said! I’ve always admired them both. You can just feel the genuine goodness in George so his kind words and respect for Ali... were heartwarming! God bless them both!

Nice person and great sportsman too.

Foreman himself came back when he was in his 40's to support the youth support centre and became the oldest champion. Truely admirable

Actually after his loss to Ali he went into a dark place. Just came from a vid by The Modern Martial Artist. Search the night Foreman faced 5 men by The Modern Martial Artist and you'll see. But it is very respectable that he brought himself back and learned from his mistakes. The more mistakes you make, the more potentially wise you become. Potentially because some people just stay bitter but those who can forgive themselves and others come out wiser

U won't say that if u saw foreman vs 5 boxers in one night....its on RU-vid

Yes he is

Hayder Hussein 800thin

Hayder Hussein he is also a Grill

Hayder Hussein a animal in the ring , a gentleman outside in the ring

He is.

The way he fought minimized how much he got hit. He truly was great at the art of boxing. Just like Sandy Saddler.

5 losses, how he won 🏆 99.9% of his fight

Foreman has to be every ones favorite retired champion ! A great guy ! !

By Knockout

Because he is built like a tank

The introspection of this man is unbelievable

Once a reporter was asking Mike tyson about the loss of holyfied Mike lossed his temper 😂😂

@@like2jo4796 I mean handle their loses differently. I don't see how that's funny though.

@@like2jo4796 lost*

@@bradydavis4666 stop with your relativism. The way Foreman handle his loss is greatly superior than the way mike tyson handle his. Because foreman is more mature. Don't insinuate that its the same

each time you see something new and intersting

I was vitamin C in his age but watched all his fights in last couple of weeks. I guess you can call it overkill

BBB

all my life 22 years

😎😎

he effectively reinvented himself for the better. not many people can say that. Tyson too.

Zahra S Impressively George has developed his 'Yin' more than most of us. Thank you Master George!

Zahra S he learned From Ali fight

So true! Foreman could have been a disciple of Jesus. He affected my family in wonderful ways - more than boxing.

dont forget he became the world champ, after ali, again

Also mike tyson

The prime Tyson is with them.

You nailed it. Those 3 are the greatest.

Exactly sir..

@@davidesperanza7701 Tyson prime = MOST BRUTAL FIGHTER of all time

Rocket Ronnie respect gentleman. You understand what respect and true sportsmanship is

Oh yes . We love Big george!

George hates Ali..

@@syedfayaz1428 no after he retired didn't any longer

Amen.

ali is great at what? beating up people and ant white racism?!

+Sigmund Freud go back to your grave Freud. This ain't your time.

True

+Sigmund Freud What's with the disrespect, Mr. Freud? You're better than that! 😑

Hisoka hunting for dat booty whats with the hype...a racist is a racis black or white...he did not like whites and i dont like people who are like that

He loved and adored Ali sincerely!

Actually, all look noob when Mohammad Ali is being talked about.

Yes and he was pretty good. Did he win that fight at 45?

@@evan4672003 yes oldest guy to have the title

@@mohammadhaseeb7392 Mohammed Ali doesn't get his rep just from boxing he was all round king. But there is no way people looked like noobs one of those "noobs" beat him soooo

tbh that just shows how much of a humble man George is

Rightly said

Peter Herrington who’s worthy then ?

@Pikadead agreed that

and what is your problem? What was the part you found so offensive?

NikkeQuan 2 Larry King, Colbert, Rogan, Stephen A., Jon Stewart, Arsenio, Ed Bradley...just to name a few🤷🏽‍♂️

And almost all of them are named George...even the daughters have a version of his name...no kidding!

well said bcoz u want to

100% true

What an amazing character.

That's Exactly what I've wanted to comment

Sure is.They both have REAL class.

Except me.I am the greatest

There's no doubt about that.

Ali and Pele are the most famous athletes, worldwide, of the 20th century...

Only the great can identify the great

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Shows how sharp and witty George is.....

❤❤❤

Dumb and kinda rude question

realy.

And so is HE :))

Well said

+Liz G. frazier looked like he had been stomped on come on Ali looked beautiful after each fight

Liz G. You and many others miss the whole view of Muhammad Ali, he's not called the greatest because of what he did in the ring, he's the greatest because of what he done inside and outside of the ring. If you know his story, you know what I'm talking bout. He never bent, he never folded, stood tall against it all.... fighters these days don't have that type of heart or affiliation with the people as Ali did...

He's had to learn to be humble after the Ali defeat. And because it's the only fight he ever gets asked about.

ameerul aqmal he really is humble

ameerul aqmal agree he's a good man

mohamd Ali ,was disgrace

Well guess who humbled him yes u guesssed it. he wasn't always humble in fact he was the opposite.

Yes I was looking for this comment

Foreman have a big hearth what a gentle soul

This woman is very weird ... is she really a journalist or just some trash talking on tv

ruuuuude and stupid to say the least

Cuz he is a LEGEND!

And sounds like a million bucks! He could open a university on how to reinvent yourself. A LOT of people don't know the George before the fight in Zaire, Africa. They don't realize how different he was but to have seen him come full circle is a true testament to what God can do when he chooses you. The same goes for Muhammad Ali. RIP champ.

Yes, George took lessons in intimidation from Sonny Liston and he learned well. Back then, he was a scary guy. He showed he was also a great entertainer, storyteller, he has timing and can tell a great joke, is a fantastic salesman, George has it all. Thank God for the great George Forman & great late Muhammad Ali.

And still talks in straight sentences. That happens when you're giving out most the beatings instead of takin em. Never another George.. never another Ali

He’s about 70 now

It's Christ in him

I thought it was only me who felt so...

These interviewers are idiots

Yeah and the way foreman responded to them was as if they where good questions what character this man has

When a person is very humble, there are no difficult or uncomfortable questions. Few people are like Foreman especially nowadays.

DYS TOPIA that’s exactly what I was thinking

and after this Fight .

I would too but I don't believe he cares what these people think he sees it as there opinion he cares about his family and friends opinion as he should

This is a part when they talk about the "Rumble in The Jungle next or previous video they talk about how he feel when he become the oldest Heavyweight Champion.

Ollie Pope George wouldn’t care. Considering he’s ones the all time greats, plus he’s a BIG man. He’s bigger than such insecurities

And after that too.

Yes sir!

An amazing guy.

100%

@randy johnson well didnt we all do that at one point of our life :/

@randy johnson He said he hated white people , those who oppress his race! Speak in context!

randy johnson Speak in context, stop spreading nonsense

Proof?

blueberry11051 -Most definitely, warriors of the highest caliber!

Absolutely!

Gale King is hard to watch.

George Foreman is closest we’ll get to perfect

He is the man of holy spirit.

God has and is using this great man to do great things!!

ya george is humble and have a great heavy punch

Yeah, I wouldn’t want to meet him in the ring though, the man was a monster. One of my favourite heavyweights of all time.

well said..😊

It's also a good answer, he wasn't referring to being beaten up, it's the will behind those punches.

What a dumb question

It was a brilliant answer but the question wasn't dumb. The "rope-a-dope" is probably in the webster dictionary and no one really is born with the ambition to be tied to that. He had to grow beyond that and understand his story and the lessons of his story in order to communicate his larger live lessons. Not everybody woulda been able to get past that, much less befriend the guy who humbled you. That was the genesis of the question, I think.

classy?! racism and hating whites is classy?

+Sigmund Freud dude, racism is very bad and stupid, but if I was not allowed in restaurant I would be a big racist. dude he lived during prime time of kkk

Freud Ba thats no excuse...there are double standards and you know it

Sigmund Freud Ali didn't run for the office to represent officially people, sure he may have taken his fighting social justice to far. but i don't blame him.

Freud Ba excuses...double standards...etc

JonathanAnon humble to

The unfiltered Foreman stories would be great because whenever he's on TV nowadays he's in salesman mode 50% of the interview. To appear I'm certain he said they had to mention the grill. They did.

As I have said...George is like Ali...Always on the showcase! lol but who doesn't love George. The last of the remaining TITANS.

+MrDrmillgram LOL

salute

Md.Ali♡♡♡ The Father of The Legends.... The G O A T♡♡ ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

It's coming back alright maybe not Ali Foreman Tyson Lewis types, Deontay Fury Klitschko Joshua, It's improving again slowly, Still the best division Hevy Weights, The punches they throw

Give me 5 years motherfuckers

Feargal Kelly aight go it

Init deonty wilder champ of world 😂😂

EvilReni Its the aura those people gave when they boxed in the ring. When I watch today's heavyweights, it doesn't certainly feel the same unlike before.

Me too!! 2 very special people.

# that smile

+Tommy Nikolas and that laugh!

She doesn’t know boxing

Right? Ali said when he fought Foreman that was "the closest I've come to death" that dont sound like no joke to me lol

@@Janellabelle was it the Foreman fight or the last frazier fight where Ali were both in hospital for a week after the fight

@@suf1an658 oh man I never heard about that! I'm going to read about it and find out though. These fights were before my time so I dont know details like that, but thanks for telling me because this seems like it must have been the golden age of boxing having all 3 of those guys fighting at once, and I'm fascinated by their talent. Wish I was alive then to have seen their fights and the aftermath and the smaller details lost to time.

Literally. Couldnt be more true!

Foreman Hristiyan farketmez Yüreği kendinden büyük insan

Ikr he is such an idol

Although his face is fierce and violent when he is in the boxing ring and certainly many opponents are afraid when they want to face him, but outside the ring, George Foreman is actually a gentle and kind person who easily smiles and gets along with friends, especially if we know him more closely. He is a large man who always thinks big and broad when he is with his friends. He is also very careful and polite if he wants to let go of his words". May our Uncle George always be in the best of health, Champ.

including Liston

You need help.

AbuAsma true...

Yes I agree she was rude. Should have been more respectful in her manner of questioning.

AbuAsma she really did.yes foreman took a beating from Ali but he also gave Ali a terrible beating she makes it sound like foreman was a walk in the park for Ali, it took every atom and molecule of Ali's body and mostly mind to win that night, and that was Ali's only night,time,and he knew it that night or no night remember Ali did not give foreman a 2nd chance. Both great boxers and greater men.legends,they were both kings.

Yet he responded gracefully.

I still have that hahahaha. Yep....in 2019! And this reply is a year late.

Jimmy Jux he made 300 million off the grill

Mark Cianfarani Hogan did not turn them down he missed the phone call

amazing racist and anti white biggots...ali and mandela...burn in peace

+Sigmund Freud I bet you're a trump supporter

Ali Bomaye no im not...i think both are crap...and im not american so i dont care about trup or anybody else...stop seeing yourself as center of the universe

Yes brother
