In 1967 70% of America hated Ali. Today 90% of the entire world loves Ali. Who else could ever make that statement? God bless you, Muhammad. You have earned it. I just feel sorry for the 10% who have never figured it out.
uofmdad42 go blue then your probably a poor little hobo who can’t afford to see the media and is delusional we all know who he is why the fuck did u click in the video if u didn’t know who he is it’s simple your just a little bitch wanting to talk shit online cuz you can’t do shit face to face
@WindTheBrave it's actually nothing like that 😂. Muhammad Ali is way more famous than Michael Jordan... Jordan was known for his basketball... Noone outside the US can even name 5 basketball players...
Mr. foreman one thing people don't know yet is that how much they love you. you were a great fighter but most importantly you are such a great human being. so humble and down to earth. we love you just as much as we love Ali
I remember as a kid listening to his first fight against Liston on the Radio. Was in the Army when he fought Fraiser the first time. He was and is my favorite fighter. Will miss you Muhammad. Rest in peace.
George Foreman was the ultimate gentleman and he paid the ultimate tribute to Muhammad Ali who was responsible for sending him into hibernation for over 10 years. That he came back from that devastating setback against Ali that almost ended his career in 1974 to reclaimed back the World Heavyweight crown in 1994, speaks tremendously of his courage and determination. Ali was undoubtedly the greatest human who change the world of sports to what it is today. He was the reason why there is so much money in sports these days. RIP Muhammad.
Tez what about all the other people that convert to a different religion from Islam gets a disease ? So just just your trap hole and left people tribute their respect in peace
Humanity will never see such a man again. We are so fortunate and blessed to have seen him alive. George, you are truly a great man also. We hope to have you around for a long time.
That's the thing people nowadays don't understand and probably never will due to their own ignorance and greed. People back in those days knew what respect was all about. After you beat an opponent instead of saying "I whipped his ass" they say "he's a great fighter, I was the better man today but he's great thank him for the opportunity" WTF happened to people in this world
Defeat against Ali seemed to redefined foreman as a character, as a man, mature and gentle later on in his life.....I dont know if he took ali as one of his idols (as a man/human being) like he took liston character as a fighter,but man.....george foreman really become one of the most respectable icon as a fighter, and as a man.......
the greatest , the bravest Muhammad ALI will be missed deeply. he has preached billions of people on this globe to live on your beliefs and share love and peace .
George made his own spectacular comeback after the loss to Ali and the following depression. He battled hard and came out to be another very outstanding classy figure and role model for young people. He deserves much respect too.
the world will never see such great tremendous heavy weight boxing matches ever again ... such a great man of principle ... very brave, charismatic and legendary ... rest well champ ...
Ali made all Black people proud. The night he beat Foreman was the biggest night that I've ever seen in the community. Folks were running and jumping all over the streets. Ali showed us what a man was. I carry his spirit with me every day. Ali was the real G.O.A.T.
George was a great fighter in his own right.? He invested wisely & turned his Business in to a Multi Million Dollar Enterprise. Plus I love his Foreman Grill.? He is still going strong.? RIP Mohammed Ali ,? You are missed Champ,? Bu all of your Fans.?
Ali destroyed all the media too who talked and written against him own legacy therefore this champ teached us boxing outside the ring is much more fight ....
George Foreman probably the most powerful boxer and he regain the world heavy weight title in his 40's the oldest boxer to do so.George Foreman was also a olympic champion boxer!.George Foreman is humble, a Christian and a fine man!.George never was given a rematch with Muhammad Ali had George been given that rematch I'm sure George would have fought Muhammad Ali more wisely!.
I was lucky to talk to George on TALKSPORT about 2003 i asked was Ali THE BEST FIGHTER OF ALL TIME? no said George but he would have been a winner in any kind of role because of his personality
I Loved Ali Then and I Love Him today He in deed was the GREATEST Boxer of all times in my book R. I. H. Champ, Goat, Awesome Father, Grand Dad, THE GREATEST!
humans are so fragile the way we act when he said he ain't going to war. He had the guts to say NO. Respects! George is truly a gentleman, love you too George.
wow you have to have the up most respect for George being honest it takes a real man and humility to admit that his opponent is stronger than him .and being real with himself .
George foreman would have won in a rematch I got that belief, vut the past is the past. I highly respect foreman and ali Frazer and Norton as the greatest era in heavy weight boxing, the golden age, ali passing away today is probably the saddest day in my life, he is the best. a legend, a great. but forget the boxing he was a humanitarian a activist a great father and a man. love
Trump is using plays from the Ali playbook. "I'm the greatest, I'm the richest, I'm the best, I have the best skin." Ali was voting Trump. We lost the single best, greatest vote. Ali RIP
I understand your sentiments but they are misguided. Boxing has been an escape from poverty and prison for many young men for over a hundred years. Men like Mike Tyson, Riddick Bowe, Lennox Lewis, Oscar de la Hoya, Roberto Duran, Fernando Vargas and so on would be dead or in prison if it were not for boxing. But for people who want boxing banned, it is better if these men died or suffered without them knowing they existed. Better for Ali to have died in 1965 due to a gunshot in a back alley being another statistic than dying in 2016 with Parkinson's.
Based on what Foreman says at the end of this video, I wonder if the main reason Ali became great was because he wanted to prove himself at a time no one wanted to be around him.
Most legend Boxer's are amazing people outside the the ring, I'm not a Boxer it look's a beautiful career hard and short one, Earn incredible money Triple is the best now, He'd Mayweather not this charity fight with Conner Magreggor
rip champ,,,,,some of u ppl is so disrespectful,,,,,,but i understand u cnt help it when hide behind social media,,,the difference between u and Ali,,,,,,,,,,rip to the realist Ali,
ALI=G.O.A.T. my all the things you started to lose and have difficulty w/ , come back to you but even better champ. Never was one b4 nor since you came along and then left. God Bless RIP.
I wish the interviewer had persisted on Foreman's friendship with Ali. He tended to meander about past experiences and how beautiful the man was, etc. But clearly he fell into a deep depression for maybe two years after losing to Ali, from what I understand, and Ali was contemptuous of Foreman in the post-fight interview. So I would have been interested how their friendship slowly developed. I think he said Ali tried to coax Foreman out of retirement so he could beat boxers who had beat Ali, so the friendship must have developed slowly.
In 1967 70% of America hated Ali. Today 90% of the entire world loves Ali. Who else could ever make that statement? God bless you, Muhammad. You have earned it. I just feel sorry for the 10% who have never figured it out.
Martin Luther King Jr is the only other person honestly
i have never even heard of the guy before this video. who did you poll to get those numbers..
uofmdad42 go blue then your probably a poor little hobo who can’t afford to see the media and is delusional we all know who he is why the fuck did u click in the video if u didn’t know who he is it’s simple your just a little bitch wanting to talk shit online cuz you can’t do shit face to face

Tez what about all the other people that convert to a different religion from Islam gets a disease ? So just just your trap hole and left people tribute their respect in peace
We'll never again see another like The Greatest, Rip Ali
Humanity will never see such a man again. We are so fortunate and blessed to have seen him alive. George, you are truly a great man also. We hope to have you around for a long time.
The Gentleman George Foreman
Ali was overall the best but Foreman was probably the hardest hitter I've ever seen.
Yep but Sonny Listen beat Ali and they robbed Liston and gave it to Ali. But Ali was indeed the greatest.
ATOM09
Say what you want, Liston got ko'd first round in the rematch.
34Floaty Oh Ali the man don't get me wrong. I just wasn't sold with the "rabbit punch" theory. That was some bull.
What fight were you watching? Ali knocked the crap out of Liston.
? ali beat the shit out of liston and he quit on his stool, how the hell was it given to ali?
Ali made boxing would neva been forgotten
great respectful GEORGE FOREMAN .real gentleman
That's the thing people nowadays don't understand and probably never will due to their own ignorance and greed. People back in those days knew what respect was all about.

Very sad news. Ali was an inspiration for me as a youngster. Sympathy and condolences to his family.
George made his own spectacular comeback after the loss to Ali and the following depression. He battled hard and came out to be another very outstanding classy figure and role model for young people. He deserves much respect too.
the world will never see such great tremendous heavy weight boxing matches ever again ... such a great man of principle ... very brave, charismatic and legendary ... rest well champ ...

George Forman is a freaking legend great inspiration for anybody
Ali made all Black people proud. The night he beat Foreman was the biggest night that I've ever seen in the community. Folks were running and jumping all over the streets. Ali showed us what a man was. I carry his spirit with me every day. Ali was the real G.O.A.T.
Awesome comments from George!!!!!

A Legend - Rest In Peace Brother.
Bestest icon to change the world, this will be a great memorable moment
For me, still the 🐐❤👊 pure class and the smartest boxer their ever was.
Good bye Ali. U were the best.
I was lucky to talk to George on TALKSPORT about 2003 i asked was Ali THE BEST FIGHTER OF ALL TIME? no said George but he would have been a winner in any kind of role because of his personality
You have boxers then you have Gladiators, we all knew them men were gladiators.
Wow, George is a good guy in his well-being. R.I.P Ali, your punches are like shooting stars.
Hey George, nice grill you got there.
Hey Ali,

Nice statement👌👍🏿!!!
Love Muhammed Ali and love George Foreman!
great interview
Refreshing to behold the podium for honour, class, & candour in the '70s - '80s shared by George & Ali. Thank you, gentlemen.
George Foreman and Muhammad Ali, two great fighters and two great human beings.
Two Legends 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I Loved Ali Then and I Love Him today He in deed was the GREATEST Boxer of all times in my book R. I. H. Champ, Goat, Awesome Father, Grand Dad, THE GREATEST!
I WISH time travel existed because i want to meet these legends!
humans are so fragile the way we act when he said he ain't going to war. He had the guts to say NO. Respects!
George is truly a gentleman, love you too George.
wow you have to have the up most respect for George being honest it takes a real man and humility to admit that his opponent is stronger than him .and being real with himself .
Beautiful soul. I’m inspired by you George foreman
I agree with you George. He was the greatest show on earth.
NO way i would say greatest boxing show on earth!
stfu tez he was the greatest...what have you done in your life? none so stfu
whostolemypants lol you are very stupid!.
Modest Foreman was the greatest heavyweight ever. Regained legitimate title at 47yrs. That eclipses everyone else.
things to remember about ALI, Mr. Foreman remembered, Ali of the 60s...he had no friends just God.
which one!
stfu tez he was the greatest...what have you done in your life? none so stfu
whostolemypants good man
whostolemypants I used my brain!. What as it got to do with asking which god!. Seems you no brain at all!
I love muhammed Ali hes the one of the best men to walk this earth
Ab Roman true true true !!! RIP Muhammad Ali
lyle said " we will never be able to repay ali .true what he did for black america and the world.boxing was nothing to ali if he win or loose
George foreman would have won in a rematch I got that belief, vut the past is the past. I highly respect foreman and ali Frazer and Norton as the greatest era in heavy weight boxing, the golden age, ali passing away today is probably the saddest day in my life, he is the best. a legend, a great. but forget the boxing he was a humanitarian a activist a great father and a man. love
Ask George about your idea for a new product. He says to call his friends at InventHelp
I disagree Ali would of won on points. In Ali's peak he would have tortured him for 15 rounds like he did to Ernie Terrell and Floyd Patterson.
wow , such a great man George foreman , aand Muhammad Ali RIP
I knew there would be an interview with George immediately after Ali's death and I knew the interview would be awesome. I was not disappointed.
Very classy from Mr. Foreman...mmj
The the grim reaper is undefeated nobody been able to beat him yet
@ jay jay. You funny. lol 😂
he got beaten about 4 times!
Oh, you must mean The Undertaker from the WWE.
The interviewer doesn't laugh or barely react to Georges hilarious stories about how beautiful Muhammad was/is??!!!
hace falta deportista como g f drande ali esl mas grande
Muhammad Ali pranked George for the first 6 rounds. Made him think he had a chance of beating the greatest LOL
they will be talking about Muhammad Ali all weekend and Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday
rest in peace you will be forever loved and missed
This was a time when boxers had great sportsmanship. Ali & Foreman 2 of the "Greats"
Frazier tho
RIP the great Ali u will b remembered 4ever.. George Foreman is a great dude to no petty in him
Guess it kind of depends on where you’re from . In East Oakland we are all rooting for him all the time
Trump is using plays from the Ali playbook.
"I'm the greatest, I'm the richest, I'm the best, I have the best skin."
Ali was voting Trump. We lost the single best, greatest vote.
Ali RIP
Trump points at African American in crowd and says "aren't you the greatest?" a day before Ali died. Illuminati confirmed.
+Antonio Cabrera that's deep.
I WISH BOXING WERE BANNED. GOD BLESS THEIR LIVES AND FAMILIES.
I understand your sentiments but they are misguided. Boxing has been an escape from poverty and prison for many young men for over a hundred years. Men like Mike Tyson, Riddick Bowe, Lennox Lewis, Oscar de la Hoya, Roberto Duran, Fernando Vargas and so on would be dead or in prison if it were not for boxing.
But for people who want boxing banned, it is better if these men died or suffered without them knowing they existed. Better for Ali to have died in 1965 due to a gunshot in a back alley being another statistic than dying in 2016 with Parkinson's.
Ali used to secretly eat pork chops with Foreman (right off the Foreman grill, no less), which was against his Moslem religion. 😳
Two legends
He was really the greatest man.
May Allah bless him.
Based on what Foreman says at the end of this video, I wonder if the main reason Ali became great was because he wanted to prove himself at a time no one wanted to be around him.
How come Larry Holmes got invited to Ali's funeral but not George? Does anyone know? I thought they got close at the end?
No, you're wrong, George was invited anytime
i like foreman more than ali
Most legend Boxer's are amazing people outside the the ring, I'm not a Boxer it look's a beautiful career hard and short one, Earn incredible money Triple is the best now, He'd Mayweather not this charity fight with Conner Magreggor
rip champ,,,,,some of u ppl is so disrespectful,,,,,,but i understand u cnt help it when hide behind social media,,,the difference between u and Ali,,,,,,,,,,rip to the realist Ali,
Cannot c u in heaven cos you don't go there..!
ALI=G.O.A.T. my all the things you started to lose and have difficulty w/ , come back to you but even better champ. Never was one b4 nor since you came along and then left.
God Bless RIP.
RIP

I love George Foreman
George always speak nice. What a Gentlemen. RIP Champ!!!
Rest in peace. But hes not the goat.
Wonder if George Forman would remember eating steak dinner at the Fondulac Cafe with Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, and Jumping Jimmy Neufeld. lol
