Former heavyweight champion George Foreman sued over alleged historic sexual abuse

Boxing legend George Foreman is being sued by two women who claimed he sexually abused them when they were teenagers.

The alleged incidents date back to the 1970s when the former heavyweight world champion, 73, was at his peak. According to the lawsuits filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the women, using the pseudonyms Gwen H and Denise S, initially met Foreman when they were under 10 years old.

The former champion is accused of grooming the girls for several years, according to the complaints, before forcing them to have sex with him. The women claim the abuse occurred in places in an apartment in Beverly Hills and a hotel in San Francisco. The two women are now both in their early 60s.
