George Foreman named each of his five sons after himself, clearly set on carrying on the family name. The two-time heavyweight champion, however, drew the line at a family boxing tradition. “It is such a rough sport,” he said. “I never wanted my kids to do that.” But George III will become Foreman’s first son to fight as a pro today when he faces Clyde Weaver in Kinder, La. George III is 6-feet-5 and 240 pounds and has been in training for about a year. The 26-year-old has worked as his father’s business manager since getting a business degree from Rice.
