Suggested Interview Questions

for George Foreman

Author of God in My Corner

------------------------------------------------------------------

• George, you’ve seen the best and worst life has to offer, from growing up in poverty to earning boxing’s heavyweight championship; from bankruptcy and failed marriages to a second championship and a new career as “King of the Grills.”  How did you fight off despair at the low points?
  
  
• You came out of retirement in your 30’s and became boxing’s heavyweight world champion for a second time at age 45.  What advice do you have for listeners who think it’s too late to change their lives for the better?
  
  
• I read in your book, God in My Corner, that you consider your biggest losses (losing to Ali, losing to Jimmy Young, losing your investments and losing to Evander Holyfield) to be some of the best things that ever happened to you.  What do you mean by that?

• You’re a preacher as well as a puncher (Ring Magazine named you one the top nine punchers of all times).  How do those two things fit together?

• Your new book shares tips from “George’s Corner” on topics like inspiring others, being an optimist, seizing opportunity and finding success.  It seems you are consumed with helping others become better people.  What makes you such a nice guy, George?  Have you always been this way?
  
  
• Did you really name all five of your boys “George”?  Why would you do that to them?
  
  
• There might be some younger folks who know you better as the “king of the grill” than “king of the ring.”  How did this phenomenon begin, and how many have you sold so far?
  
  
• Do you think having God in your corner gives you an edge over others in business?  How do faith and business come together for you?
