One of the greatest weighty weight of all time died. George Foreman, who became as known as his grills as his stunning second career in boxing, was one of a kind. “Our hearts are broken,” said Foreman’s estate in a statement in social media on Friday evening. “With deep sadness we announce the departure of our beloved George Edward Foreman Sr., who calmly left on March 21, 2025 surrounded by loved ones. A pious preacher, devoted husband, loving father and proud and great -grandfather, lived with life marked by different faith, humility and cell.”
He is not a hyperbola to claim that Foreman led an extraordinary life, moving from heel to one of the most believing characters of pop culture in America and leaving an indelible mark in boxing sports. “Humanitarian, Olympian and two -time heavyweight master of the world”, he continued the statement – “he was deeply respected – strength for the good, man of discipline, beliefs and as a defender of his heritage, tirelessly to keep his good name – for his family.”
After winning the gold medal at the 1968 Olympic Games, Foreman became one of the most cruel strokes in the heavyweight division. In 1973, he was ready to become a heavyweight champion from Houston, which he achieved, repeatedly abandoning the defending master Joe Frazier six times in two rounds before the fight. However, less than three years later the situation changed to worse for Foreman, because former world champion Muhammad Ali stunned the world, throwing Foreman and taking his crown in Zaire.
Surprisingly, Foreman regained the championship in weighty weight – full twenty years after he lost him from Ali. Foreman’s return probably began when he had a deep religious experience, which permanently changed his life. Becoming a ordained minister, Foreman returned to boxing in 1987 to earn money for his parish. It was then seen by many as a joke. At that moment Foreman was fat and bald, looking completely different than the intimidating giant he was once. Foreman recently laughed when in 1994 he knocked out the defense of IBF heavyweight titles and WBA Michael Moore, full two decades after losing the championship with Ali.
Foreman continued the fight until 1997. At that time, he was seen more as a ubiquitous spokesman for a celebrity and a grill than a warrior. Indeed, the money earned from George Foreman Grills reportedly made him the richest athlete in the world – even exceeding the NBA and King Sneaker Michael Jordan. After his death, George Foremeen left the world of boxing with a dazzling, positive narrative that would never happen again. “We are grateful for pouring love prayers and we kindly ask for privacy because we worship the extraordinary life of a man to call our own,” said Foreman’s estate.
Promotion of Edgar Berlang vs. Hamzah Sheeraz and Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda Doubleheader begins today at a press conference at 13:00 ET in Palladium, Recent York to discuss their event on July 12. The card will be issued outside at the Louis Armstrong stadium at Queens, Recent York.
Turki Alalshikh chose another unique surroundings of one of his cards, but he will allow ordinary fans to participate. It is a difference from the event from last month in the Times Square Exclusive, wealthy atmosphereDesigned for the upper shell.
The Louis Armstrong stadium will accommodate 14,053 fans, so it will require an extensive promotion to attract a huge enough audience to sell.
Will Stevenson reject his anger today?
The featherlight champion of WBC Shakur (23-0, 11 KO) will have the opportunity to set off his frustration related to receiving the second settlement before the media. He expressed anger because of placing Berlang from Sheeraz based on the fight.
It will be captivating if Stevenson decides to Rant. Many fans believe that he should be in the main event. He is the world champion and did much more in his career than Berlanga or Sheeraz. Shakur could transform a press conference into a therapeutic session, during which he releases his regret by pouring him out into the media.
The press conference could utilize the theater with complaining of Stevenson. I doubt he. It is a pity that Zepeda does not speak English. This is a problem that his last opponent, Tevin Farmer, tried to promote his two fights. He couldn’t divorce him to force him to answer because he couldn’t speak English. Stevenson is not really that good in slaughtering opponents and trying their anger. His knowledge is praised.
The role of Berlang in the promotion
The opponent of Berlanga, Sheeraz (21-0-1, 17 KO), is not known to fans and is not a very speaker. So to Berlang will require strengthening fans about this fight. Because Edgar is the main guy, his duty is to try to sell the event
Return Australian boxer Goodman himself could hit Jackpot after reviving his flagship fortune unanimously win with Mexican Cesar Vaca in Sydney.
Goodman improved his undefeated record to 20-0 thanks to the dominant performance at the Hordern Pavilion Night on Wednesday, which could fall in the 26-year-old in a hit world title shot in the USA.
The Goodman team will now ask for the highest in the world of the IBF Super-Bantameight Fighter in the world to become a must-have pretender to face Nayya Inoue’s supergising.
Goodman can even end up on the same card as his stable rematch Tim Tyu from Sebastian Funda in Las Vegas in July or August.
The Crack of the Inoue world title would only be deserved after 26-year-old Goodman had a battle with the Japanese in December in the amount of $ 1 million cruelly broken by two sparring injuries.
Goodman went down in the financial danger of PO, first of all, his planned Christmas hit against Inoue in Tokyo was postponed after the pretender suffered a cut on his left eye during the training.
Albion’s talent was then devastated after postponing the January duel, when he opened the cut again and was forced to undergo surgery.
Goodman faced the loss of a house for a million dollars, which he bought at the end of last year if he lost on Wednesday evening.
He finished the meeting with high rates with cuttings in both eyes and was properly released from survival without any major damage.
“It was a blow that led me to this, and then, the fuck, it was the beauty of the main ass that led me here,” said Goodman after receiving the competition 99-92, 99-91, 100-90 by three judges.
“So the next two rounds were that they managed to deal with it and win the fight.
“The idea was to be a clever fight and regaining this pace on the road to world titles.”
Jake Paul says that Canelo Alvarez is “over the hill “ And he would beat him if they fought on May 3. The weight of Jake’s circuits notes that he has shown more shots in his eight two-minute fights with Mike Tyson on November 15 last year than Canelo in his 12-round fight with William Scull.

Crawford also looked at the shot
Paul thinks it is a signal that Canelo is washed. This is an sincere assumption. Canelo looked like a 100% shot, just like Terenka Crawford in his last fight with Israil Madrimov. They were their former themselves.
Paul and Canelo negotiated in February last year to clash on May 3. However, when Turki Alalshikh signed Alvarez for four fights, on that day he adapted him to William Scull. Turki preferred Canelo to fight “real warriors.” Turki would be better if Canelo would fight Paweł than Szuli, because it would be fun.
“I threw more blows in eight two-minute rounds than in a 12-round fight [against William Scull]- Jake Paul said to media Today during a press conference with Julio Emperar Chavez Jr. at Avalon Hollywood Theater in Los Angeles to promote them on June 28 the fight for Dazn.
Canelo fought, as if he did not train cardio to fight and was too tired to cast more than a few shots in each round. He only threw 152 blows throughout the fight.
“Undoubtedly 1000%. I would beat Canelo. This is what I said. He is on the hill. Oh, for sure”, asked if his fight with Julio Emperar Chavez Jr. It will be more comical than the fight Canelo vs. Terenka Crawford on September 13.
Did Turki call?
Perhaps Turki made the right move, not allowing Canelo to fight Paweł, because if he lost to him, he could not be put in a “great fight” with Crawford after this defeat. Alvarez would be useless.
“Of course, Crawford is a great warrior. Canelo is a great warrior, but I just think it has more noise. We just saw how they are bored ** fights and probably just sitting and dancing for 12 rounds,” said Paul about Canelo vs. Crawford Clash.
Jake is right. Canelo-Crawford will be lifeless because no warrior has nothing, and they probably only fight for money. They are so senior and are not comical to watch.
Paul says that the fight against Canelo “must happen to improve boxing sport.”
