The ending was great im sorry its gone.
Any way to upload as an unlisted video maybe and link it here? This was always by far my favourite of yours!
Thanks for all the work making this it was good
"Fear the old man in a profession where men die young"
Wow. Who said that?
Wow. Who said that?
Damn that was deep
Hey man, that´s quite true! damn I´m gonna remember this one.
All these retards saying “damn that was good” no, no it is not. That’s one of the most over used phrases on the internet
"Beauty contests are won on points. I knock people out." George Foreman
Hey, my man, this man was really hitting hard, it looks like he was somehow more leveraged than Mike Tyson, though I think Tyson skill and speed was above par.
@@afurakashomara3409 tyson hit you like a Ferrari where as George came at you like a speeding Ford F150
@Jeeses99 The old Foreman won many fights by KO / TKO unlike the young Foreman but still his KO record is impressive by whatever standard. Except for the Rumble in the Jungle fight against Ali, Foreman had never been humiliated. Yes in his "old" days Holyfield, Morrison, Briggs beat him but all those fights were not humiliating / punishment against George.
@@GeorgioArmoni lol f150? more like a fucking peterbilt
@@lanceharper4107 Facts
I watched the Foreman vs Moorer fight live on TV with my dad. When Foreman knelt and prayed in the corner after he won was the first time I ever saw my father shed a tear. Dad still has his original Foreman grill too 😂
👍👍👍👍👍
I had the exact same experience.
@@theangryconstitutionalist583 you still have your original Foreman grill?
Foreman wore the same trunks he wore in the Ali loss, to the moorer win...I want those red trunks to give to my son to wear at his wedding and then at my funeral. 🤐
fight looked fixed
The body shots Ali took against Foreman are absolutely insane….
Were those punches= one of the cause of his parkin?
@@proactivelifewithljc4000 definitely. Ali failed to change his style effectively after he got banned for dodging the draft. In his prime, he barely got hit, but after that, he took a lot of punishment. He was winning fights almost completely off of willpower alone.
@@Madvillainy48 he took uncanny beating in his later years. It was a slow suicide.
He spent weeks in hospital
Ali had massive ticker to get in the ring with foreman after the frazier demolition....let alone win. Ali was that good.

Hunger is the main ingredient in a sport that is 90% mental. If you're hungry for it you are willing to go get it.
@@sportinlife1 that's what I'm talkin' 'bout!
Therefore George's biggest defeat by Ali turned out in the end to be his greatest victory. If Foreman had actually defeated Ali, he would not have risen to the incredible person he later became. It's true, then that God DOES works in mysterious ways!
This has to be one of the greatest true life boxing stories I have ever seen!
He deserve a movie , he's a big inspiration..
This is a movie 2 bro
But a Hollywood movie
Foreman fought right never held Ali and made it appear as a boxing not wrestling.
Starring Winston Duke as Foreman
Boom, perfect timing
He said something that made me cry, and reflect upon myself, he said he 'walked around with anger for ten years', or something close to that. And I didn't just realize, I know, I've been walking around with anger for the last couple. We all have our reasons. I need to let it go. Big George, thank you.
It's all on how one uses that Anger.
I walked around with a lot of anger and resentment for longer than ten years. Eventually, we need to make peace with our own demons. Its never perfect but we don't have to be perpetually angry. Cheers!
@@maintain.faith.3657 no that anger no matter what you use it for drains you. Negative energy can never overcome positive energy and neutral energy may be the best for stamina
@@sproutsisters5398 I can only speak for myself.
one year later did it work?
Just showed this to my wife, she had never heard of GF. She wanted to cry by the end, straight up could not believe this was made by some guy on CZcams and not a professional company. Outstanding work as always
TV is obsolete these days, better stuff, like this to be found on the web.
Yes awesome production by Bored as always. Me too, I really didn't realise George came back like that at his later years. Very emotional and so fucking great that he did it. Unbelievable really. What a man
@@birlove1471 Amen To You Sir
@@tyreepowell8367 Amen Back At You Good Sir ;-)
Why did she want to cry?
The fact that no one believed in him and he proved them all wrong was the greatest redemption in boxing
Arnold Schwarzenegger rule number 4 to success: *Don't listen to the naysayers.*
Watching him live life in his 40's makes me feel very happy. Everyone loves George. How could you not?
He has The POWER🌩 ✊🏿🌩
He shows us how to live
One of the big shockers is that Foreman really has no extreme signs of brain damage or CTE. Despite the extreme punishment and lack of defensive form during his fights he maintains a sharp mental acuity. A stark contrast to Ali.
Ali had Parkinson's and could happen to anyone. Ali had the sharpest mind of all the boxers.
Not so sure it was actually Parkinsons disease. I think them 15rd fights are hard on boxers
god protected him
George Foreman never really got hit like that. He only got KO’ed once. He was never brutally beaten. He was huge and so his size advantage combined with power and skill was like his defense.
People really have no clue about Ali and parkinsons.
One of the greatest ever, gave Holyfield a war 13 years past his prime, imagine what a prime foreman could of done to the heavyweights of the 90s, the only man who could truly beat a prime Foreman was Ali and that was due to Foreman’s naivety, Foreman could have been the best ever
You know they say your in your prime when your at your peak mentally and physically. With this I feel George may have been in his prime the night he shocked the world against moorer. Young George didn't have the mental strength and maturity to be a great, it took life lessons and time to transform him.
Sooooooo true on many levels
I love foreman too. But i believe that old big george was better than his younger version.. same "speed", Better mentaly and tactically, better chin protection, defence and probably even more power due to more mass. But i dont think this is good cooperation.. Wilder is totally different type of puncher.. We dont need huge overweighted strong slower Wilder. I truly believe his power is his speed and athleticism. Wilder needs get back to his natural fit weight arround 215-220lbs but work on his defence.. I believe he needs mayweather to help him with footwork and defence..
Politics managers nd people played a lot in not giving Ali again to George because of Ali's following blindly in order to protect Ali from Foreman
I'm from India, making this comment, by a lottttttttttttttts of upset. Ali was a little part of poooo of Foreman
Ali was a hair on George' dick
George FOREMAN was all time GREATEST
@@shallowbubble931 well, at least you stay true to your username
George really pulled a Ali on Moorer.
Ali let himself get bullied, get pushe to the ropes, let himself take the punishement so he could slowly but surely take away georges weapons, tangle him up and tire him out.
George tricked Moorer into thinking he was old, slow, no longer has power so he could stand right infront of him. Wild. Still learning from ali 20 years later .
Thats the mark of real humility too imo; he learned from the lowest point in his career, and used it to reach a new height.
Wore the same trunks that night that he wore in Zaire. Powerful shit.
Ali didnt really get punched clean though
@@calogerogriffin861 What fight did you see? Watch again!!!
The best ever
He hits a guy with a punch that looks like its going about 10 miles an hour with a look on his face like hes mentally making his grocery list and his opponent looks like they just got hit by a meteor.
Always liked foreman and Frazier over Ali...never had any time for Ali...foreman/Frazier/Tyson....MY..3 favourite boxers.....now, it's the 2 Ukraine's....lomochenko/usyk..a pair of matrix boxers...
"By the time you get to know a fella, it's all over." is one of the greatest lines in boxing history.
one funny liner
George Foreman’s life story definitely deserves a Hollywood blockbuster movie. What an inspiration.
And now he gonna have a movie
Haha you Got it now
@@jeppesleiborg8177 he deserves a better movie
He is an inspiration he didn't quit after ali he came back & carved out his own legacy
Well technically he did kinda quit, but he came back and that's even more inspiring. He had to swallow his pride, humble himself, rearrange and regroup and came back smarter. George knocked out 2 undefeated champions to become champ.
Yes what Forman did was extraordinary
I think that foreman would've won if they'd fought in usa.. everybody turn against the man in africa, and praised Ali as god and shat on poor george and that get to him
Actually he did quit but came back later
R. A. Well he did if we’re being honest. However it was only temporary. He came back and kept going. He didnt have to keep fighting for a title because he made enough money off of grills. His love for the sport and self belief kept him going.

A classic
@MUFC soccer is the most boring sport ever. No one wants to see grown men flopping over while kicking a ball up and down a field for an hour and a half especially when the only exciting plays is the 1-3 goals scored. I dont even have anyrhing against soccer but bots like you make me never want to watch soccer
@MUFC and there arent 240 countries
Absolute legend. The guy was fighting in the 60s and became world champion again in late 90s.
Foreman is an enigmatic, complex man who just happened to be one of the strongest punchers in the sport. A really good film...a fascinating, redemptive story!
If KO ratio means anything, he was THE strongest puncher in the sport.
If forman would have hit clay with a big!!, Real!! "Full force" " haymaker! He would have killed!!!, Clay!! That's why! He did not! Do that!!!, You can clearly see!! He is not! Using his full power!!!!!!, Get real!!!!, Gene, forman former neighbor, in Livermore, calif.............
He is already the father of the heavyweight division.
When we lost Muhammad Ali, he became the new grand old man, who everybody looks up to.
He sure could punch
Now he is the last Grand Old Man of his era. Ali, Frazier, and Norton all left us in the last 10 years.
Yes sir
@@GinoCorleone Lol To You
How come Hollywood has not made a Movie about this man?!? This is a True Comeback story...
Cause he’s a hard worker and loves America. He will have to turn into a libturd to get a movie deal now haha
Because Hollywood hates conservatives
True

*George Foreman:* Maybe I am telegraphing my punches these days, but the message still comes through loud and clear
"I'm not the greatest but I'm the hungriest" What a fighter !!
Golden Age
68 KO’s... that’s actually an unfathomable amount. He actually is the KO King.
That's what I say to the tyson fanboys, what this documentry did not show was how many times George said he wanted to fight tyson and KO him for the title. Foreman has more KOs than Tyson even had total fights !!
@@michaelmohrle1773 Yup! Don King admitted he ducked the Tyson Foreman fight. I'll never forget that Sports Illustrated cover "George Foreman eyes Mike Tyson". Sadly we never got that fight and my money was on Big George for sure.
@@Skazellino I have several Ring magazines with Foreman calling out Tyson, but not one Tyson calling out Foreman !!
??? Lookup 124 ko record. I'll wait.
@@finished6267 ?
I saw many of these fights when they first aired live on TV. I was a kid. Then years later, a man. George was still around. Still fighting. It was crazy. Then he won again. He won America's heart at that point. . He is an institution. An actual legit legend. Thank you for this wonderful documentary. When GF looked up and kneeled, yeah, I got misty. Old softy, I guess
He gave Evander Holyfield a great fight at the age of 42 just imagine what he could do if he didn't retire at a very young age

As opposed to a half killa?
So true bro!
Those grills are all kinds of excellent tho
wrong
No one thinks that
Perfect timing and pinpoint accuracy that was what old George Foreman brought to the table. The only reason his punches appeared to be slow and weak was because he was totally relaxed while throwing them, but he had his full bodyweight behind them, so they were heavy as hell.
Foreman was just naturally freakishly powerful. Even in his older years he had this aura of invincibility about him.
He named all his sons George 😭
💀💀😭
Dre bishop also his daughters
Kid: "My name is George the 4th.."
Friend: "So who was the first? Your Great Grandfather?"
Kid: "No he's my Dad."
@@LucidDreamn 🤣
Thats next level narcissism lol
Moorer didn't get up and I was speechless. I looked at my dad for an explanation...
"Son, thats what i mean when I say grown man strength."
Upper cut while casually walking is just d best KO in boxing history...so casually done...no doubt George Forman is legend...nobody can ever make a comeback after 13 years forget about winning d title
Yeah, george was just going to the bus stop, and remembered he was in a boxing match, left uppercut, right cross,..an george got on the bus, and into the all time legends hall of fame, king of the ring,
@@palerider2020 It's been referred to as a "Drive-by Uppercut" against Gerry Cooney. And it actually looks like it.
Then he threw a right "just to make sure."
@Will Stanton yeah, that stroll by, 2 punch sniper sting, is the best combo/ tactic in boxing..that's calm experience.
If you watch George swing, you'll notice that he takes huge, swinging arcs coming in from the side. With the mass of his arms and fists, coupled with his size and strength, that was devastating. Never seen another boxer swing like that! Brutal!
George simply overpowered his opponents. You couldn't trade shots with Big George
A perfect example of this is his match against ron lyle
Young 1970s George forman, young mike tyson would have a prayer
George Foreman Is Boxing Heavyweight Legend As The Greatest Of All Time.
That took a Holyfield.
Yeah, someone should ask dip shit Teddy Atlas how it all worked out in his eyes after he talked all his shit!!!!!
I want to congratulate Bored Films. This was brilliantly edited and had us all on the edge of our seats despite us already knowing the story. Very very well done.

I loved watching all of his comeback fights.what a life this man has lived.He doesn't get as much respect as Ali but I believe he should.He is an American treasure.And I am thankful for the memories
When George knocked out Moorer & Moorer hit the canvas the whole room was speechless, nobody said a word. We were shocked!!
Moore was fighting a heavyweight legend who gave a prime holyfield a run for his money so nobody should have been shocked
@@Djuane again we were shocked!!! Moorer had the fight in the bag & was told he setting you up for the right hand. Moorer should stayed away!!!
@dalelovesimba Because Moorer thought George was just washed up and probably thought it was gonna be a cake walk

A gift? He literally just edits together existing footage, my 12 year old sister could do that.
Moved me back then and this time again. This is the greatest champion of all time, his mission was not a selfish one. This is a story of spiritual growth.
I got goosebumps and tears when foreman sat more down at the age of 45.
31:35 taking 2 straight hooks to the jaw by a prime Holyfield and not even staggering. Legend Foreman.
Holyfield is a tremendous athelete, and a perfectly polished boxer that hit very hard. Several times Holyfield hit "Big George" with combo's of so many punches in a row in rapid succession its hard to count how many it was. Foreman seemingly unaffected, makes me wonder what that voice inside Holyfield's mind was saying, because Holyfield has quite a since of humor. Both Great Boxers and Men worthy of being the HeavyWeight Champion of the World. Holyfield and Foreman both very devout Christian's, and good kind men. They inspire me to be a better man and more likeable person, yet with two years of boxing as a teen under my kind appearance and peaceful outer layer live's a man that can lite 'em up quick fast and in grand style. Ive loved boxing every since I can remember. These two men are two of Boxings Best Ever. Best Ever by the was Joe Louis. Nobody will ever defend the heavyweight tile more that the 25 times the Brown Bomber did. Louis would have more than that had the second world war not prevented him from having more fights. Wish Louis"s life after retirement had not been so tragic, hate and greed had its way with Joe Louis mostly by the Government, and after he did so much for the government. Louis Schmelling 2 is the most important sporting event of the Century. Joe beat the Nazzi's, no telling what the world would be like had Louis lost that fight. Confidence brings success and success brings confidence. Had louis lost it would had given quite a boost to the so called "master race". Thank God Louis took the wind from thier sail.
Holyfield has no power he was a blown up cruiserweight...no way he was going to ko Big George Foreskin
@@EmperorNerox he had no power are you joking or what
@@melvynsngltn27 he's a blown up cruiserweight...no power at all. Hit big George Foreskin 20 times straight and big George didn't flinch

Could you please add Rocky Marciano, please please😊

I cry every time the Ali sound bytes are played over his Moorer victory. Beautiful and unforgettable moment.
in my eyes the two most emotionally satisfying moments in sport involved George. So so happy that he regained the title. Bless you George Edward Foreman. x
"They said the fight was fixed....sure it was, I fixed it with a right hand" George Foreman! I remember the night he fought Moorer. I had a room full of friends laugh at me because I told them he was going to win that fight. I got the last laugh that night!
Amen .....it was fixed by GOD in Christ JESUS whom he serves!
foreman's punches looked like phone poles, the power he took into comeback years was phenomenal.
@@proactivelifewithljc4000 See I see people say stuff like that all the time and I have a question as to what you mean by such a statement. Win or lose, whatever happens then is Gods will, is the universal viewpoint I thought.
The crowd was Ali’s greatest weapon. With everyone chanting his name he forgot what everyone thought he was capable of and became what he knew he could be and what that crowd wanted to see. This is truly the greatest upset of all time imo. Foreman could’ve easily been the greatest to ever put on the gloves, yet Ali’s persona and tactics were the perfect storm needed to wear down an all time great for some time until he came back determined and hungry at age 45 to win the heavyweight back. What a great story no one could’ve made up
absolutely. i wonder why there isnt any movie about foreman
@@calogerogriffin861 i think rocky 6 is inspired by his story
But listen, Ali took a beating. A hell of a beating with his tactic. Watch the whole fight and you just cant take anything away from what Ali pulled off. And thats why hes considered the greatest... But he was only gonna pull that tactic off once against Foreman lol and thats no mistake
The whole crowd shouted "Ali bomba ye" "Ali kill him!" I don't think Ali would had stahd a chance other then in Kinshasa
@@vincentvega6932 agree
To this day, every time I see the Ali Forman fight it blows my mind. I never tire of it. Ali is the perfect example of professional. He could have hit Forman as he fell, he consciously chose not to. Even to that exhaustion and stress, he kept his wits about him.
Often overlooked. Wilder, OTOH, often hit opponents who were on their way to the canvass
The brain and attitude of 90s Foreman in the body of 70s Foreman is a boxer I'm not sure anybody could realistically beat
One of the most scariest Boxers ever, transitioned to one of the most inspirational boxers ever. George Foreman is a legend.
THE most scariest boxer ever*

This is a masterpiece
Thanks for watching!
You see the punch coming, it's slow and when it lands it shakes your whole body. When George hit opponents to me it looked like he was chopping a tree down, TIMBER. Down they go, one after the other. In combination of bone crushing power, Foreman evolved as a man from being very angry to being very humble, honorable and very very likeable. He belongs in the top 6 heavyweight champions of all time. George Foreman was a better man than he was a heavyweight champion.
Man rewatching the highlights of holyfield vs foreman.. George was an absolute warrior. He literally ate 10 - 15 of holyfields heaviest hardest shots and kept coming forward.
And even in old age hes not punch drunk! I think that's amazing!
Its why i think he could beat tyson then
Holyfield said nobody ever hit him as hard as George Foreman.
@@jonathanblaze1648 This doc doesn't show Holyfield promptly vomiting after the fight was over, George was fucking him up so bad.

This man is an inspiration to the entire world. And his love for Ali, the man who beat him, is priceless
He learned a valuable lesson from Ali.
Jesus, Big George ate more punches from Holyfield than he ate cheeseburgers and just like the burgers, he ate 'em and smiled. Completely fucking unaffected. He made no face, his demeanor didn't change, his resolve completely unshaken. What'a goddamn legend.

The Heart,determination and Power of George Foreman is greatly respected amongst those that fought and watched him box...His Experience will not be easily forgotten.
I have watched this documentary dozens of times. Whenever I need inspiration; whenever I need a reminder that redemption is possible I watch this. George did the seemingly impossible and so can you.
Joe you know I already loved you and am one of your biggest fans. But you did my cousin George Foreman justice!!! Now I love you even more! I will try and make sure George sees this!!! He will definitely appreciate this!!!
You cousin is great man-
not just to have reclaimed the title in his 40s but because he was able to overcome his demons, conquer pride &, do so much in service to other people- that is true greatness sir.
Did you show it to him?
You're saying Big George Foreskin is your cousin? Did he scratch u a fat check when he sold the foreskin grill rights for 160 mil?
tell him no man has ever worn the fat better
Iron Mike saying "whoa, perfect timing" gets me every time 🤣😂🤣😂
It was Ali’s defeat of Foreman that solidified his greatness to me. I remember thinking there was no way he was going to beat Big George. Like many others, I was wrong.
The editing on these videos are nothing short of amazing. Especially the slowmotion in the fights and the commentary to go along with it.
I am not alone in saying "ouch!" out loud seeing all those devastating blows from Foreman throughout the video.
Don't worry...I'm here with you...
The use of that "Ali, Bumaye!" Chant during the last fight was chill inducing.
When someone tells you it can’t be done…think about George.
George is an inspiring man. To come from a place of anger and vengeance, then to rebuild himself as a better man and a better athlete is inspiring to the old, the troubled, anyone who feels they need to change their life. You can always become who you want to be, and George is living proof of this.

32:25 It's almost as if he transformed into Ali with that speech.
He did
I always saw Foreman as if he was a version of Sonny Liston that was able to conquer his demons, be accepted by the people and live a happy life after all the chaos he lived.
RIP Sonny Liston, and I'm so happy his pupil had such a great legacy in boxing and is alive and well 💙,
I wish Sonny had the same fate .
George Foreman is one of the best players in boxing. He won a young man and won the title when he was in his forties. He is the strongest jaw and the strongest punch. I wish him health and wellness

I wouldn't say he's the best heavyweight of all time but he's definitely up there.
He wasn't the best of all time. The best of all time was the guy who was first to beat him in his prime. He definitely was the most feared and the hardest puncher ever though.
This gentleman was the best boxer ever.
A truly killer machine.
GOAT.
One of the most underrated ever.
Ppl still dont realize just how good he was because he will forever be relegated under ALI's shadow.
Around 85-86 I saw a man preaching outside in Houston. Stopped to listen out of respect for the word. Had no idea it was the former baddest man in the world.
Only george foreman could make a comeback like he did. When you get old you lose speed that you can never get back. But punching power stays or you can get it all back. Foreman was easily the hardest puncher in boxing history. Holyfield said it himself
After seeing this video without a doubt Foreman in his prime was unstoppable. Watching Foreman is like a watching a Rocky movie.
I remember a friend telling me " don't you wish we could wear something, that when we watch boxing we could feel the punches" hahaha!! Can even imagine having to be foreman's sparring partner haha!!
I loved Big George'es humour in his later years.
He wanted another shot at Ali.
He would’ve gotten it if he didn’t decide to take a tune up fight against Young, however Ali did agree to the fight, but Foreman was out of shape and lost, Ali never DUCKED Foreman.
@@papichurro7570 Exactly, Because Foreman Was No Match For Muhammad Ali The Greatest🥊👑🐐.
@@papichurro7570 WOW I didn't know that
@@papichurro7570 ...You're absolutely and positively correct, Papi! Thanks-a-million for your honesty!
@@papichurro7570 lol.. ok. lol
"I'm not the greatest but i'm the hungriest". That's it.👍🇺🇾
The mind of veteran George with the body of young George might have been truly invincible
Why is there not a " George Foreman " Movie!? like this man's story is captivating! HES A LEGEND!
No one brings it home like Joe Vincent, no one
Puting the "is that all you got Goerge" just before the final round was beautiful
And the 'You were in school when I beat Sonny Liston!'.
@@matthewcb1970 i thought he said "you are as cool when i beat Sonny Liston" like in you are cool like him but i still beat him.
Man could you imagine if he never retired? Geeez 10 years of prime boxing skills wasted… he is absolutely amazing. He needs to be in the convo as greatest boxer to ever live.
He was comically slow, but hit so hard you had to completely dodge every punch. Only Ali could do that.
He was not comically slow in the 70’s
@@johnp515 ...He sure wasn't!
He is so humble, he seems like he really is a good person.
He earned that humility, he was arrogant af when he was younger.
@@jakeand9020 really?
Thank you for adding the grill. When I was 6 years old I didn't even know the man was a champion and a legend, but damn his grill fed us a lot .
Thanks for the inspiration George.
I had about 4 of those things.
I will literally never get tired of that Tyson "Boom, perfect timing!" soundbyte
In my honest opinion, the greatest Heavyweight boxer of all time. This man needs a movie! He needs to be celebrated and appreciated while he is still here, it will be a very long time before we witness a career like his. Also, is his name not the best name for a fighter ever?! George Foreman. Just straight up powerful.
