'Big George Foreman' Hits Theatres: Champ Recalls Day He Died and 'Jesus Christ Came Alive in Me'

Описание: HOUSTON, Texas - George Foreman remains a household name for generations of Americans. He's an Olympic champion, a two-time heavyweight champ, a preacher, a broadcaster, a husband, father of 12, and even a TV pitchman. His latest role is executive producer for a movie about his life. It's called "Big George Foreman" and it hits theaters Friday.

It's been nearly 30 years since George Foreman's historic return to the ring to become the world's oldest heavyweight champion at age 45. Three decades later, he's still one of boxing's biggest personalities.

"When I made my comeback into boxing, I was ready to go and my wife didn't like it all. But she had a vision that I was going to become heavyweight champion of the world," Foreman tells CBN News. "We never forgot that vision. And she had to be reminded of it as well, that I was heavyweight champion of the world. That kept me fighting. That kept me fighting."
