Heavyweight boxing icon George Foreman has died at 76, his family announced. Foreman won Olympic gold in 1968 and became a two-time world heavyweight champion, famously defeating Joe Frazier in 1973. He lost his title to Muhammad Ali in the historic 1974 "Rumble in the Jungle." After retiring in 1977 to become a preacher, he made a stunning comeback in 1987 and, at 45, became the oldest heavyweight champion. Beyond boxing, he found immense success with the George Foreman Grill, selling over 100 million units. His legacy as a fighter, businessman, and preacher leaves an enduring mark on history.
