Foreman Changes Mind

George Foreman wants to fight just once more, then retire. If the fight can be made against Mike Tyson, he will take it.

In an interview Friday, Foreman’s promoter, Bob Arum, said Foreman told him Thursday that he did not want to fight twice more, as originally planned. “He wants to fight just once - the biggest money fight he can do,” Arum said. Arum has also said that a rematch with Axel Schulz was possible.

If Foreman has accepted the possibility of fighting Tyson, it would mark a turnaround from his previous contention - that he would never again fight anyone promoted by Don King.
