George Foreman is regarded as one of the greatest heavyweight boxers of all time, and during his prime, he was simply unstoppable. At the age of 24, Foreman defeated the legendary Joe Frazier to become the WBA and Ring heavyweight champions. For 40 of his first professional fights, Foreman was undefeated, and nobody had any answers to his resilience.
When he was scheduled to fight an old Muhammad Ali in the biggest boxing showdown of the century, George Foreman was the favorite to win the fight. The Rumble in the Jungle fight card was huge and gained attention from all over the world, and the results shocked everybody. Ali proved his haters wrong and won the fight via KO. This infuriated Foreman, who couldn’t believe his loss and took some extreme measures to deal with it.

In an interview with The Telegraph, Foreman said: “I had no fear. I put everything into knocking him out in one to three rounds. After the fourth round I can remember being shocked that he hadn’t gone down…I can remember like it was yesterday. What I remember most is being shocked that I hadn’t knocked him out.”
According to Foreman, Ali was simply invincible that night and had the will to survive anything. However, over the years, Foreman’s anger towards Ali shifted to respect, and ultimately both became great friends.
