About this listen
George Foreman, the legendary heavyweight champ who passed away in March 2025, has been lighting up boxing nostalgia feeds this week with fresh reflections on his epic ring wars. Seconds Out reports that on January 21, Foreman once pinpointed Ron Lyle as the strongest fighter he ever faced, praising Lyles raw power over even Evander Holyfield in a vintage Ring Magazine interview resurfaced amid endless debates on heavyweight punchers. That same day, Boxing News Online dug into Leroys Caldwell tale, where the ex-fighter ranked Earnie Shavers punch above Foremans but hailed Big George as a title-snatching beast after his 1971 demolition of Caldwell en route to dethroning Joe Frazier.
Fast-forward to January 22, the Jamaica Gleaner flashed back to the Sunshine Showdown exactly 53 years prior, with a classic photo of Foreman pounding the heavy bag in Kingston prep for his second-round TKO of Smokin Joe that crowned him world champ. No underdog at 3-to-1 odds, Foreman floored Frazier six times in a bout Howard Cosell immortalized with Down goes Frazier. Todays January 24 marks another anniversary, as WRIF Rocks Detroit recalls Foremans 1976 Caesars Palace thriller against Lyle, overcoming two knockdowns for a fifth-round KO named The Ring Fight of the Year, a comeback that fueled his later age-defying title grab.
No fresh public appearances, business moves, or social buzz on Foreman himself hes long retired from the grill empire and pulpit preaching. All this chatter underscores his unbreakable legacy as oldest heavyweight king at 45, with no unconfirmed rumors just pure historical heat dominating the discourse. Boxings old guard stays fiercely relevant, darling.
