Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Template wrapper".Script error: No such module "Check for clobbered parameters". George Edward Foreman III (born January 23, 1983) is an American entrepreneur, professional boxer, trainer/coach, and founder of EverybodyFights. His father was businessman and former two-time heavyweight champion George Foreman Sr. He is one of Foreman Sr.'s five biological sons, all named George. Foreman Sr. also has seven daughters, five biological and two adopted, in his four marriages.

Early life

As a child, Foreman watched his father train and sat ringside when his father was doing color commentary. He always loved boxing, but never got involved with the sport until his early teens. Foreman attended Fay School in Southborough, Massachusetts. He graduated from Culver Military Academy in Culver, Indiana, in 2001 with a high school diploma, where he played lacrosse.

When he was 19, he went to the gym to do some sparring, but never went back because he did not want his father to find out. His mother, Andrea Skeete-Foreman, never thought that he would ever become a boxer because he was so calm and would never lose his temper.[1][2]

Foreman earned his BA from Rice University where he studied Business and Sports Management,[3] and went on to serve as the business manager of his father's empire[4] and executive vice president of George Foreman Enterprises, Inc.[5][6]

Foreman starred on the E! network's reality series Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive.[7]

Boxing career

George III spent his entire youth absorbing the history and art form that is boxing and boxing training. He went on to pursue his own professional boxing career in 2009. After going 16-0, George Foreman III retired. He returned to the ring in 2024 and made a successful comeback. His record currently stands at 18-0.

Foreman started training for boxing in July 2009,[8] with very similar training methods to his fatherTemplate:Snd the "torture chamber", in which he dragged a Jeep as far as he could, dug holes, chopped wood and ran to the point of exhaustion.[2]

He made his professional debut stopping Clyde Weaver at 1:16 of the first round. He floored Weaver twice: first with a left to the chin, then with a left to the body, before the referee called a halt to the match.[9] He won his third pro fight on September 26, 2009, at the Coushatta Casino in Kinder, Louisiana, against Marvin Ray Jones by TKO in the first round.[10] His last bout was in 2024 in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Business

In 2013, George Foreman III opened a boxing fitness gym in Boston called "The Club by George Foreman III". In an effort to further promote the core beliefs of the gym's culture, George eventually changed the name of the gym to EverybodyFights. George announced in January 2021 via Instagram he was no longer affiliated with Everybodyfights. No reason was given.

In 2016, the company received a series-A investment from Breakaway in the form of four million dollars, and soon after announced the opening of another location in Boston. Since then, EverybodyFights has opened five locations, and plans to open over 20 new locations for expansion in other major cities across the United States.
