More quotes by George Foreman
Its very important that people know that I really enjoy everything that has happened to me.

And I just want to leave that legacy that being nice is a true treasure.

Klitschko has had a good career. A lot of his fights have been out of the country as though he hasn't even been invited into the real heavyweight picture in the United States. He's a good fighter. You can't talk about him unless you can beat him and it doesn't seem that there's anyone around who can truly beat him.
George Foreman

George Foreman
If you want it, leave your excuses behind and come and get it
George Foreman
As a child I was sometimes so hungry that I used to dream that one day I'd get locked in a grocery store.
George Foreman
As a matter of fact, there was a period of time, especially in my first career, when that's the only one who would work out with me: my dogs. As you get better and better working out, there's no one who can keep up with you running.
George Foreman
Learn to sell and you'll never starve
George Foreman
I want to keep fighting because it's the only thing that keeps me out of the hamburger joints. If I don't fight, I'll eat this planet.
George Foreman
Anytime I can sneak in a moment to fish and ride horses, I'm a happy camper!
George Foreman
When I was a boxer, I wanted to be champion of the world, not the richest man in the world.
George Foreman
Forgiveness is that subtle thread that binds both love and friendship. Without forgiveness, you may not even have a child one day.
George Foreman
Nobody can do everything well, so learn how to delegate responsibility to other winners and then hold them accountable for their decisions.
George Foreman
