Carl Froch boldly stated that George Foreman “clogged” most of today’s heavyweight boxers. The iconic two -time heavyweight champion, who died last week at the age of 76, was mentioned tenderly when he left this world “surrounded by loved ones”.

“Substantial George”, the Olympic gold medalist in 1968, became a professional and quickly became a force that should be reckoned with, eminent for Joe Frazier in 1973 to win the title of World Championships. Foreman initially disconnected his gloves in 1977 after he lost another shot in the world championship title. However, ten years later he returned to an unusual one.

In 1994, at the age of 45, he defeated Michael Moorer to become the oldest heavyweight champion in history, which remains uninterrupted. His career finally ended in 1997 after losing to Shannon Briggs, but his heritage as one of the greatest bulky in this sport is undisputed.

The debate on how previous generations of heavyweight will act against current stars was again awarded Foreman’s death. Carl Froch, former united champion of a super medium weight, now shared his thoughts on this matter. Although he expressed some reservations about Foreman’s chances against Oleksandr Usyk, he certainly stated that the American legend would dominate both Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury in their leader.

“I don’t think Usyk is large enough,” said Froch TalkSport. “I mean he is a fantastic warrior, so forget about Usyk. But George Foreman, if he was in the heavyweight era, you can forget about all the other bulky weight. He would fight them to pieces. He wouldn’t be able to live with him.

After his death, his family issued a honest statement, singing the praise of the boxing of Titan both inside the ring and outside: “Our hearts are broken. With deep sadness, we announced the death of our beloved George Edward St., who calmly left on March 21, 2025 surrounded by loved ones.

The statement also presents the extraordinary achievements of Foreman and the personal characteristics: “Humanitarian, Olympian and two -time heavyweight champion of the world, was deeply respected – the strength for the good, man of discipline, beliefs and defenders of his heritage, fighting to pay to keep his good name – for his family. From a man who we were blessed to call his own.”
