George Edward Foreman (born January 10, 1949) is an American two-time World Heavyweight Boxing Champion.

He became the oldest man ever to win a major heavyweight title when, at 45, he knocked out 26-year-old Michael Moorer in the 10th round. Foreman still holds that distinction and has been named one of the 25 greatest fighters of all time by Ring Magazine. Nicknamed "Big George", he is now a successful businessman and an ordained Christian minister who has his own church.

Foreman has 10 children, and each of his five sons are named George: George Jr., George III, George IV, George V, and George VI. He is able to distinguish one from another by the use of nicknames such as "Monk", "Big Wheel" and "Little George". His five daughters are Michi, Freeda, Georgetta, Natalie, and Leola.
