Well technically George was the heavyweight champion when King was well into his 60's.

"In 1994, Foreman once again sought to challenge for
the world championship after Michael Moorer had beaten
Holyfield for the IBF and WBA titles Foreman broke two
records: he became, at age 45, the oldest fighter ever
to win the world heavyweight crown; and, 20 years after
losing his title for the first time, he broke the record for
the fighter with the longest interval between one world
championship and the next."
Don King definitely was well into his 60's by then!
Good post.

Big George and Don King
About George Foreman being a great fighter when Don King was young etc.etc. Actually he WAS fighting in the early to mid 1990's, but he was NOT a great fighter. He was a fighter who won his share of the title when he very luckily KO'd Michael Moorer in the last few seconds of the 10th round, all 10 of which he had easily lost until the KO.
And as somebody who has seen this fight quite a few times, it really looked like a rathwer soft, ordinary punch' Moorer going down from it was a HUGE surprise to everybody, I think even Geoge himself.
When Don King was "young", actually around 40 or so, George made his real reputation, and in no way was he "great", but just a hefty, strong, average fighter. It was his KO punch, which got him through the first -and best- part of his career.

Man, i know everybody has his own criterions for greatness.... But saying that Foreman wasn`t great is like... saying that Mother Thereza was a nazy...
