George Foreman, nicknamed Big George, (born January 10, 1949) is an American two-time former World Heavyweight Boxing Champion, Olympic Gold Medalist, Ordained Baptist minister, author and successfull entrepreneur. Foreman had an amateur record of 22-4, losing twice to Clay Hodges (also defeated by Max Briggs in his first ever fight). Foreman turned professional in 1969 with a three-round knockout of Donald Wahlheim in New York. In 1972, his string of wins continued with a series of five consecutive bouts in which he defeated each opponent within three rounds. Still undefeated, and with an impressive knockout record, Foreman was set to challenge undefeated and undisputed world heavyweight champion Joe Frazier. Frazier was knocked down six times by Foreman within two rounds, with the three knockdowns rule being waived for this bout. After the second knockdown, Frazier's balance and mobility were impaired to the extent that he was unable to evade Foreman's combinations. Frazier managed to get to his feet for all six knockdowns, but referee Arthur Mercante eventually called an end to the one-sided bout. Nineteen seventy-seven would prove to be a life changing year for Foreman. He retires ):
