Über diesen Titel
George Foreman, the legendary heavyweight champ who passed away in March 2025 at age 76, made headlines again this week when a car smashed into Oaklands Lightning Boxing Club on New Years Day, wrecking a historic ring he once trained in during his 1980s comeback. KTVU Fox 2 reports the driver fled after barreling through the doors at 5845 MacArthur Boulevard early Thursday, shoving the prized canvas—also used by Sugar Ray Leonard and Wilfred Benitez—15 degrees off kilter and toppling its stairs like an earthquake hit. Gym co-owner Kris Lopez, whos mentored local kids into pros since opening in 2009, told reporters repairs will sting amid Oaklands crime woes, with a GoFundMe now live to fund a quick reopen. This quirky twist keeps Big Georges ring legacy punching above its weight, a poignant echo for fans still mourning the grill kings peaceful exit surrounded by family, as his official Instagram announced. No fresh public appearances, business moves, or social buzz from Foreman himself in these past days—hes been gone nine months—but his name lit up CBS News Sunday Morning previews for a January 4 segment recapping 2025 icons, rubbing shoulders with David Lynch and Gene Hackman in a star-studded death reel. Boxing247s New Years Eve roundup lamented 2025s heavy toll, name-checking Foreman alongside Dwight Muhammad Qawi and others as a beloved force whose charity work and preaching outshone his Rumble in the Jungle glory. Mike Tyson once tweeted condolences with fist-bump snaps from 2019, but thats old ink—no new posts pinged. All verified from outlets like KTVU, CBS, and Boxing News 24/7; pure nostalgia fuels the ring crash buzz, no unconfirmed whispers. Foremans shadow looms large, turning a local wreck into biographical gold.
