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

George Foreman
If you want to be obsessed to be your best, you must get ride of the negative things that are weighing you down.
George Foreman
When I was a boxer, I wanted to be champion of the world, not the richest man in the world.
George Foreman

George Foreman
The Rope a Dope would not have existed without the Big Dope.
George Foreman
The Internal Revenue Service is the real undefeated heavyweight champion.
George Foreman
All the dogs I have are German shepherds from Germany, and I fly them back to Germany to show them.

George Foreman
As long as I'm reading, I'm at home.
George Foreman
I respect that you want to protect your niece. You know, I didn't want my daughter to become a boxer. Neither did Mohammad. But Joe Frazier, on the other hand, he had his baby girl boxing in the crib.
George Foreman
