More quotes by George Foreman
There's never been a great fight without the writers taking on and finding an identity for it. That's probably what has happened boxing. Writers are not writing about us big boys anymore and I tell you right, however you feel, take something, find it, and use it because American needs something to read about.
George Foreman
As an entrepreneur, don't follow the crowd let them follow you.
George Foreman
I know from experience that you should never give up on yourself or others, no matter what.
George Foreman
If you can look in your mother's eyes and she's proud of you, then you're a champion.
George Foreman
I look at my children and one thing I'm most proud of, in my heart, are my children.
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
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
Evil lurks where disappointment lodges.
George Foreman
I hit Ali with everything and he said 'is that all you got' and I said 'yeah, that's pretty much it.'
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
Boxing is the sport to which all other sports aspire.
George Foreman
There ain't nothing like being in the corner, and the trainer is whispering in your ear and another guy is putting in your mouthpiece. Five seconds to go, the boom! The bell. It's more exciting than looking down a cliff.
George Foreman
Today the biggest decisions I make aren't related to the heavyweight title. They are whether I visit McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's, or Jack-in-the-Box.
George Foreman
Read the Bible it is your roadmap through life.
George Foreman
So many of us have loved ones and people we really care about, and the only time we show affection is when they are gone. I have preached at funerals, and you see loved ones who didnt even say hello to dear ones when they were alive. Give them hugs, kisses while they are alive and need it.
George Foreman
A boxer never sees the big one that hits him.
George Foreman
You have to keep your goal in mind and never lose sight of it. I envisioned myself winning the heavyweight title for ten years before I actually captured it. If you're not driven to do your best, you'll never reach the level of excellence in your life.
George Foreman
I was a tiger, a good fighter, in good shape, but I was always nervous before boxing matches.
George Foreman
Anytime I can sneak in a moment to fish and ride horses, I'm a happy camper!
George Foreman
The world is full of people who want to play it safe, people who have tremendous potential but never use it. Somewhere deep inside them, they know that they could do more in life, be more, and have more -- if only they were willing to take a few risks.
