Everyone loves a comeback story, and George Foreman’s comeback tale is just as big as he is. 

In this summer’s Big George Foreman: The Miraculous Story of the Once and Future Heavyweight Champion of the World, viewers learn how the heavyweight champ took his hits in and outside the ring. 

Director George Tillman tells how a high school dropout from Marshall, Texas, gained fame as one of the world’s most promising boxers. Khris Davis plays the boxer and entrepreneur extraordinaire, depicting him through every pivotal stage of his life. 

In a Shadow and Act exclusive, the 74-year-old legend narrates the moments of his life that led to fame, fortune, failure and faith. 

Foreman, who serves as an executive producer of the film, stated that “boxing influenced my whole life. I’ve learned when you get knocked down, you get up again.”
