George Foreman is the man, this is maturity at it's best, we all know he won this fight fair and square, but he was gracious in this highway robbery.

One of the blind judges lent his shades to George.

"What has that got to do with the price of tea in China or the result of this fight?" "I'm trying to sell my grill Larry....."

What a guy..... I respected foreman before, but after watching this I now have a million % respect. Pure gentleman and 100% beast

It's touching to hear these words from George. Life tought him well, and he has learned from it. And to think that he was a killing machine in the 70s, full of anger. "The kid was hitting me behind the back, and i decided i can't that do that back to him" - top class. Respect George. Now i understand, you're not "Big" because of your muscles, it's your heart that makes you "Big".

Thank You George. Your Comeback was awesome. We enjoyed it. What you did in the sport of boxing will never be duplicated.

Respect to George Foreman. Man of God. Warrior.

Total class act...he knew Shannon needed that victory more than he did,very emotional to see a black man give another black man support,George clearly won that fight,but showed he's a bigger winner in life

God bless that man. Even how he mentioned his mother, how he had a hard year.. what a great heart on foreman

This is why he's my favorite fighter ever. Those grills were a lifesaver when I was in the Marine corps and the mess hall was closed. I'm sure they still sell like crazy at the PX.

I strive to be as mature and have the peace of mind of George Foreman as I get older.

George Foreman you are a legend. A legend Sir

True legend what a great bloke

I learned a lot from what he said. And the integrity that he displayed. True class act

The physical embodiment of southern manners

I love George Foreman. Always be the "People's Champion"

Class Act

wow what an attitude. commendable

i love george foreman he's a true great wall of america..no one can knock him down in a pair match..he's a true warrior,iconic,legend..🙏🇵🇭🇺🇲

It's funny, the money he won from this fight is chump change compared to the money he makes with the GFGM.

GOD bless George Foreman.A throwback to the days before arrogance and trash talk were the norm.A gentleman in the ring and out.

He got robbed. Period. Even Briggs seemed to think so

LOL. He has a new commercial. Unlike other old boxers, he doesn't slur his words and isn't punch drunk. I'll be honest with y'all. I grew up in church, used to be a devoted christian, but I left the church years ago because I had questions. I 'd heard the same sermon one to many times and it was all sounding and feeling stale. But a couple of weeks ago, I saw George's new commercial and as I said earlier, he doesn't sound like an old, aged ex fighter. He's lucid and looks damn young. When he lost to Jimmy Young in 1978 (In think) and had the locker room "conversion" we all thought he was nuts. But look at him now. He's made millions and he served God for all those years. We laughed when he said he was coming back. Most laughed until about 2:03 of the 10th round of the Moorer fight. If there is anything that has made me rethink religion and God, it was been George Foreman.

I still love George and over the years we had 10 of those grills. Great man with a great product.

George is like the Buddha of Boxing

Eow. This is to much.. He knew briggs didn't win but he was mote happy for him as his career over.. If George got the win he could av one more big big title fight.. Im lost for words how beautifully humble he is after a fight like that. He truly is one special man from an era of such greats!! I lov u George foreman. U giv me strength when im weak. ✌️❤️🎤Dropped

Guys get you a foreman grill it’s great specially for the ones that can’t cook and want to eat good

I love this man

Foreman you are the Winner

He used this platform and sold millions of grills and made more that everyone in the ring that night...free foreman grill commercial

Foreman is a boss. Oh yeah, I lost the fight, but anyways let me tell you about my excellent grill!

Such an incredible guy man. George Foreman easily top 5 heavyweight ever.

YES SIR! Love your grill. Love your book. You are an inspiration.

Mad props to Big George for taking the high road. He could've moaned and complained but he copped it on the chin in typical gracious fashion. In my opinion, he went out of the game as a winner when he did that. It only enhanced his legacy.

You gotta love this guy!!

GAWD I love George Foreman in this interview, so freaking real, so right, won't let Larry and his negative reminiscing into his head. He's already thinking ahead.

Such a humble legend 💞 love both of em.

He really made it work with the Forman brand.

What an absolute legend!

Classy man. Heart of gold.

George is one of the most amazing people to ever live. He greater than Muhammad Ali He was the one who called Muhammad Ali the greatest of all times but really it was george. George accomplished more in boxing than almost anyone ever

Love you Big George one of the greatest to ever do it without a doubt absolute legend

Very odd, that I, being a girly girl, would watch a fight but I grew up watching them all with my Dad and then with my former spouse. I watched this entire fight ,LIVE. I remember the feeling of the rug being pulled out from under me (or George) after hearing the decision. He clearly won but his post interview went down into infamy for me. What a CLASS act and gracious opponent. I'm NOT saying loser because Mr. Foreman is anything but a loser. He kept the main thing the main thing as far a being an example to his children. Well done, Mr. Foreman. So glad to have found this clip and relive a GREAT athletic moment in time. You SHINE! God's abundant blessings on your and your family. AND the grill! LOL

Wow how humble and wise is Big Foreman.

George showed such class knowing he had just been completely robbed of a fight he won clearly. The Judges in this fight should have been fired for complete incompetence.

Classy. Classy. Classy. Makes me love George more.

George is a GOD. An absolute blessing for humanity and a wrecking ball in boxing trunks

Even in a robbery like that big George is a true gentleman through and through

Classiest man in boxing

Foreman is so class. Just everything about him. Superb man. This was a total robbery.. But the way he took it... Perfect. What a man

What a legend, true man big George

I Love this so much.

George went out fighting, with honor and glory.

George is such class lol

Absolute sheer class from Foreman

Wilder is still angry with his out fit for his defeat to fury 😀😀😀😀😀

This is how a class act and a man takes a loss. What a great example.

Words of wisdom! Well done mr. Foreman.

Absolute class from George!

Total class act in losing even though he was robbed, but not a single gripe from the gentle giant😊

God bless you George. You won this fight. They robbed you

A real man !! Big George Foreman

Legend

Humble

Class act! 🎩

What a legend !

What a man!!

dude has a legitimate case of complaint with the whole world backing him up but he lets go and moves on and seems to be more concerned of of his grill machine. wow wow

What a chad, dude loses a fight and then sells his grill

We need more man who talk like this

Class act

Larry Merchant has that job for one reason and one reason only.

I’m gettin emotional watching this interview. Mr. Foreman shows one word: class. Everything he says is true: it’s about 2morrow.

I had George winning 116 to 112 but what an elder stateman

george you won this fight big time what a robbery

What a good dude...

Foreman didn't care about that match he's and icon and the Foreman grill made him a multimillionaire

Spoken like a true Champion.

Class in boxing is dead. Ali,George,Frazier never cursed once. Mature, class, gentlemen

Imagine foreman with the knowledge we have know about nutrition etc. Just es freak of nature

Classy!!!!!!!

May God bless his soul

Wow George foreman is a pretty good dude.

GROWN MAN INTERVIEW

The simple truth is this: Shannon Briggs beat George Foreman because nothing happens in a New Jersey boxing ring unless Larry Hazzard, commissioner of the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board, wants it to. Two of the judges in the fight, Calvin Claxton & Larry Layton, only credentials to be boxing judges were that they were friends of Hazzard’s. Claxton, who was not licensed to be a judge anywhere other than in New Jersey had judged one previous bout, the prior year’s Witherspoon-Mercer fight. In a very close fight, he somehow came up with a 97-91 score for Mercer - who coincidentally, like Briggs, was managed by Marc Roberts. Layton had only judged one previous fight, involving Jesse Ferguson was also managed by Hazzard’s close cohort, Marc Roberts. Hazzard it appeared, had a feud going with Foreman’s promoters, the well-known music biz impresarios, Irving Azoff & Jeff Wald, since the Foreman-Savarese fight the previous April. Reportedly he had to be pulled off Azoff in the ring after the fight. In order to avoid similar unpleasantness, Hazzard just canceled the rules meeting - coincidentally, the one time when a fighter’s camp gets the chance to protest the choice of officials.

Now after he was paid to throw the fight George Foreman was paid to rig the fight 💯💯🚩

george foreman and tyson fury have to be my two favorite humans on this planet

God bless you George.

I'm gonna buy a grill rn

I’m baffled by anyone in these comments that thinks it’s close or that Briggs won this fight? They punch stat machine alone shows that foreman won this fight

Humidity at the highest level true great. Blatantly robbed

Mr. Foreman is cool
