George Foreman stars on Sanford & Son 1977

For a fighter in those days, George made quite a few TV and movie appearances; I remember seeing him on the Six Million Dollar Man, but can't find a clip anywhere. He was also in a movie with Bill Cosby:

I still prefer 'Arold Steptoe n son to the US version

Bloody hell Foreman has large fists. His fists look as big as Cosby's head.

 

Cosby will make sure Foreman is drugged beforehand though.

 

Zaire all over again

 

What a great funny man, Redd Foxx, what a great program, Sanford and Son, and that was a great episode with George Foreman!

 

Agreed.

Bill would put him to sleep.

 

Word is, Cosby was with the Ali camp in Zaire

 

Redd Foxx was a big boxing guy, even managed a few fighters. I think he had Gonzo Montellano, who lost a very close verdict to Sean O’Grady when he stepped up.

Did he also handle Andy Price for a little while?

Little trivia: Redd’s real name was John Elroy Sanford.

RIP Redd. You finally had the big one and went to join Elizabeth.

 

Possibly, it's a done deal if Mitch Green fought him in the street. Notice how smooth Bill was dealing with George.

 

Yeah, Redd's brother name was truly Fred Sanford. Washed dishes with a young Malcolm X. Lived a very interesting life.
