To this, Foreman replied, “Power doesn’t age”. After which, he asks the person holding the bag if he is ready. To which the person behind the bag says, “Let me see what you got, champ”. After which, Foreman throws some heavy punches at the bag. At one point he hits an area of the punching bag near the face of the person and his cap ends up falling down. Foreman’s punches shook the other guy who was trying to hold the bag. And very soon, the other person simply held his hands up and gave up. And then the camera panned toward Foreman, and he said that he is ‘ready for a comeback again’. The video ends with him punching the camera.

The Persuasion that Changed George Foreman’s Mind about Boxing Comeback

Speaking of making a comeback, Foreman recently shared that he had considered a boxing comeback at 55 years old, almost a decade after becoming the oldest heavyweight champion. This was after he initially retired following a loss to Muhammad Ali but returned and continued to dominate the sport. Foreman eventually retired for good at age 48 in 1997.

George revealed that he felt he was in good shape and could make a return, but his wife persuaded him against it. Foreman shared what his wife told him at the time that changed his mind. She said, “George, isn’t that the way you want to leave the sport? Feeling like you could still do it?”

George now agrees with this statement. He says that he would never want to wake up knowing that he cannot do boxing anymore. Foreman ended up becoming a successful businessman and commentator. There’s even a movie made about his life, highlighting his remarkable career and comeback. What do you think about the situation? Do share your thoughts.
