George Foreman says he wants to work with WWE

Over the years, WWE has used celebrities to help drive interest from the mainstream world to their product by having them appear at events and, in some cases, even wrestle.

Legendary boxer George Foreman spoke with Bally Sports Network’s Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson about a wide range of topics.

During it, Foreman was asked whether he thought about potentially partaking in WWE as a wrestler or in creative.

“I still think about it because some of those first original heroes of mine were from wrestling and then that mixed-martial-arts stuff. I never would’ve gone for the rope-a-dope stuff if I had been in that.”

Foreman was asked about his favorite wrestlers.

“I had so many favorite wrestlers. Hulk Hogan and I became great friends. We even got into the ring together and…The Rock. The Rock is interesting. Do you know I sparred with his dad when his dad came over to spar with me way back in the 70s? He was a rock for real. His dad, muscular guy.”
