George Foreman is a retired American professional boxer, entrepreneur, and author. Born on January 10, 1949, he became one of the most famous heavyweight boxers in history. Foreman first gained international recognition in the 1960s and 1970s for his powerful punching ability, winning the heavyweight title in 1973 by defeating Joe Frazier.
After retiring from boxing in 1977, Foreman became a successful businessman, notably known for his line of George Foreman Grill products, which became a household name. He made a comeback to boxing in the late 1980s and, remarkably, won the heavyweight title again at the age of 45, making him the oldest heavyweight champion in history.
In addition to his boxing and business ventures, Foreman has authored several books and has been involved in various philanthropic activities. He is celebrated not only for his achievements in the ring but also for his charismatic personality and resilience.
