George Foreman III, aka “The Monk”, made his professional boxing debut a successful one with a boxing style reminiscent of his father, the legendary former world heavyweight champion of the world. Monk knocked out Clyde “The Stalker” Weaver of Parsons, Tennessee, in the first round with a series of power hooks that looked like he had cinder blocks in his gloves held low and swung from his waist.

the monk.....?

Nobody calls him THE monk. Just Monk.. I've known the guy for about 6 months and still have yet to ask him why they call him that hehe.
Anyway I've seen him hit the water bag with brutal force, I just didn't want to comment on it in the last thread. Its one thing hitting a bag and another to hit something that hits you back and moves.
But yes George has crazy power.Comment

They call him "Monk" but on his robe and trunks he had "The Monk" and he was introduced in the ring as "The Monk"
Papa George Foreman named him Monk when he was born. It is short for Monkey, which is what the other children called Papa George at the time. He said he was giving the newborn his nickname.Comment
