Two women are suing George Foreman over allegations that the former heavyweight boxing champion sexually abused them when they were teenagers in the 1970s.
The women filed separate lawsuits Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging Foreman began grooming them when they were just 8 and 9 years old and later raped them at age 15 and 16.
Foreman, 73, has denied the allegations and called them an extortion attempt in a statement to The Post.

Doesn’t matter if it’s true or not, George, just get your checkbook ready.
There are so many gold diggers out there, I assume any of these accusations are BS without serious proof. Not just he said/she said from decades ago.
I am very doubtful of allegations that first appear 40 or 50 years after the fact.

Hell hath no fury like a women scorned, especially if there’s money to be made. The statue of limitations should apply in this case, these two leeches waited til they were in their sixties to file a claim.

Read the article. They changed the law in California temporarily. Sounds like a bill written by an ambulance chaser.

Quick get rich schemes by lazy women hoping the nuisance lawsuit will be settled out of court and tabloid trash expecting clicks.

AAHHH
Californication is at it again.
Let the games begin.
Women......they need a payday now... in their 60’s
What better way to get it than to sue some rich guy.
Apparently, californication has no statue of limitations for suing old rich guys.
40 years? no problemo.
sorry, tooo late, poundmetoo is over...
We’ll see how much of a fighter Foreman is out of the ring as he was in it. Otherwise, Settle Out of Court City.
I’m surprised such accusations were not made a long time ago.
George has been a successful and wealthy man for decades.
*I have heard it said that George has named all five of his sons George. If so, surely, there must be individual nicknames that they go by in private.
Apparently, Mrs. Foreman had no say in the matter.
again- where are the parents in all of this? I watched my girls like a hawk!
they would not be with any man, family friend or not, at 15 alone in a hotel room.
people are oblivious that bad stuff happens to their kids.....
Which George Foreman?
Yeah, and a five year old version of Brett Kavanaugh witnessed the whole thing and messed him up.
I hope George doesn’t get the full bore
“Bill Cosby Treatment”, where he is socially ostracized, loses his honorary degrees, and various ways of making money.
But I haven’t heard George giving any lectures to blacks to get off their duffs, get back to work and stop wasting time looking for more reasons to do nothing but blame white folks
like Bill did. So, he’s probably in the clear.
What elite athlete has not had girls thrown at them? For example - college visits by elite recruits are notorious for their “pleasures” to woo the athlete.
Does it make it right? Of course not.
But the girls were as seduced by the elite’s fame then as they are today. Some responsibility must be shared if any wrong doing took place.
Foreman made over 100 million off his grill ventures, so his deep pockets attract attention.
He told a great story of how he grew up in a bad neighborhood and he was so scared that he always ran all the way home from school. As he got older, another kid asked him why he was always running home. He answered that everybody else was running too. The kid told him that everyone else was running because “they are scared of you.” In his prime he was 6’3” and a lean 222 lbs.
In the last days people shall be false accusers
The police will Grill Foreman.
“I am very doubtful of allegations that first appear 40 or 50 years after the fact.”
Me too.
Don’t confuse cuddly pitch man George with 1970s George. By his own account, Foreman was a ghetto-raised mugger and all-around cruel dude as a younger man. His idol was Jim Brown, a notorious wife-beater. His sparring partner was Sonny Liston, another mean guy who famously hung out with thugs and mobsters. The allegations are plenty believable.
Walsh had a good bit on this yesterday, they filed right after California changed how the statutes of limitation read due to #metoo.
