I'm too young to have seen his original championship reigns. I do remember his later exhibition matches, I had a couple of Foreman Grills which performed as advertised, and noted his charitable work. A real class act. He will be missed.

^It was actually a new invention with its own patent. It was the first grill with a clam-shell design. It was also the first grill to be slanted, allowing the fat to leak out, making the cooked meat leaner. Foreman credited healthy eating to his boxing comeback, so he was a natural fit as spokesman.
He was better than Ali and would have very likely won the rematch if there was one
The Foreman electric grills were one of the greatest inventions ever. I think he made more money giving his name to the grills than he ever made boxing.
