In this clip, George Foreman introduces himself and the theme of his motivational speeches.
George Foreman is a two time World Boxing Champion and often considered one of the greatest heavyweights of all time. As if being one of the most recognizable figures in American sports history was not enough, Foreman also became a minister, started his own reality TV show, and became successful entrepreneur.
Foreman grew up in Houston, Texas and had little connection to his father. After a rough childhood, Foreman joined the Jobs Corps where his strength was recognized by Charles Doc Broadus. He began training to be a boxer and had a stellar amateur career. By 1965 he had won the heavyweight class gold medal in the Olympic Games in Mexico.
In his first headline bout, Foreman defeated veteran slugger, George Chuvalo and went on to face Joe Frasier for the heavyweight title. He knocked Fraiser to the canvas six times before a second round knockout, which earned him the heavyweight championship of the world. In a rematch, he once again defeated Fraiser, but after his defeat in the quest for another title shot, he took a ten-year break and turned to ministry.

George Foreman is the hardest puncher of all time. He is my favorite boxer in and out of the ring.
