George Foreman III, one of the sons of former world heavyweight boxing champion George Foreman, knocked out an overweight human punching bag named Clyde Weaver to win his first professional boxing match on Saturday.
Said the elder George Foreman of his son, "You never know. This guy surprised me. A guy can train in the gym and look real good. But then they get in the ring and is a flop. Now I know he's a fighter."
George III, who sometimes goes by Monk, is the second of Foreman's five sons. All five Foreman boys are named for their father; the others are named George Jr., George IV, George V and George VI.

In his day, Big George was a great fighter to watch. Not that your first pro fight needs to be against a top ten contender, but... this was disgraceful. If Weaver had any skills at all, it wasn't apparent.

Are you kidding me what a waste of money for the fans. Please put a real fighter with George in the ring. That weaver guy looks like the guy I see everyday at my local bar.......

I would think that you need at least some pugilist prowess to fight. If I was Monk, I would have refused to fight that out of shape slob. Whoever put that card together could have done a better job with a better opponent,Yes?

Monk stunk... looked like 1st round eliminations of asub novice Golden Gloves fight. Be careful George, this kid is going to get hurt down the road !! He can't punch, how many blows does it take to knock down a glass jawed tomato can ? The guy just quit !! Monk , go to school, design a grill .

Don't blame Monk because his oppoent sucked. I'll bet that if any heavy weight took one of those bombs he would go down just like this guy did. I just want to know if he has his dads killer instinct. His dad was merciless. 95% K.O percentage. Remember this is Monks first fight period...not even an amateur fight. This guy, could be awesome...He damn sure has the genes, the size and the power.

What worries me the most is, who the hell sanctioned this fight? All this guy did was run for cover. If George is really serious about his sons fight career he should have, at the very least put him in with a fighter who could at least hit back.
