Freeda George Foreman (born October 16, 1976 in Houston, Texas) is the daughter of former world Heavyweight champion George Foreman, and a former competitor in the sport of Women's boxing.
After Laila Ali and Jackie Frazier-Lyde (daughters of Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier, respectively), became professional boxers, Freeda Foreman decided to pursue boxing herself, hoping that her last name, and the fact that George Foreman fought both Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier, would bring her big money fights against Laila and Jackie. As it turned out, Freeda Foreman had a short career in boxing.
On June 18 of 2000, she beat Laquanda Landers by a two round knockout in Las Vegas, to mark her professional boxing debut. After four more wins, she suffered her only loss at the hands of Evelyn Rodriguez, by a four round split decision, on November 20 of 2001, in Humble, Texas.
Apparently discouraged by defeat, she has not returned to a boxing ring since. She had a record of five wins and one loss, with three knockout wins.
