“I Had No Hope”: George Foreman Describes How His Biopic Could Help Fans Starting From the Bottom

George Foreman, the former boxing heavyweight champion, has traversed a life that is replete with vicissitudes. From his modest beginnings to attaining worldwide recognition as an athlete, Foreman has confronted numerous trials and tribulations during his odyssey. Recently, in a talk with TMZ, he expounded on his forthcoming biopic, entitled “Big George Foreman: The Miraculous Story of the Once and Future Heavyweight Champion of the World,” and how it could potentially galvanize individuals who are at the bottom of their lives.

However, his response contained a rather peculiar statement that captured our attention. Foreman espoused the concept of living in a desolate world bereft of any hope and how Doc Broadus provided him with hope.

George Foreman’s Interview with TSN

In a recent interview with TMZ, former heavyweight champion George Foreman discussed his upcoming biopic film and how it could inspire people who feel they have lost hope. When asked what he thought the movie would teach people about him that they may not know, Foreman responded, “You know in that movie I saw for myself how you can actually live in this present world without hope. Hope didn’t exist, I had no hope, but yet you start from the bottom, you keep working.”

He continued, “Somewhere down the line I discovered Doc Broadus who gave me hope and I think everybody can walk away from that movie and say if George can do what he did, I certainly can do something now. They can leave out of there with hope.”

Foreman’s comments reveal the personal struggles he faced while making his way to the top of the boxing world. Despite feeling hopeless at times, Foreman continued to work hard and eventually found a mentor who gave him the hope he needed to succeed. With this film, Foreman hopes to inspire others to never give up and to always keep working towards their goals, no matter how difficult the journey may be.
