India, March 22 -- George Foreman, the legendary heavyweight boxer known for his fierce battles in the ring-including his iconic showdown with Muhammad Ali in the 'Rumble in the Jungle'-passed away on Friday at the age of 76.

Foreman just wasn't a boxer. He became a minister, a youth mentor, a cookbook author and an established TV personality who marketed his own brand of big and tall menswear.

"A devout preacher, a devoted husband, a loving father, and a proud grand- and great-grandfather, he lived a life marked by unwavering faith, humility and purpose," his family shared the news on Instagram.
