This episode of the Haymakers for Hope podcast features Chris Rohland, a former Haymakers charity boxer. Chris talks about how he first heard about Haymakers through a colleague at the Boston Globe who was preparing to fight. Although skeptical at first, Chris attended the fight and was blown away by the commitment of the fighters and the crowd support. A few years later, Chris decided to sign up to fight after encouragement from Haymakers co-founder Andrew Myerson and an offer to train from George Foreman III. Chris faced adversity in training due to injuries from a previous serious car accident. But with dedication and his trainer George's belief in him, he was able to get in fighting shape. On fight night, Chris left it all in the ring. He was filled with emotion after completing the demanding training and fighting for his father, who died of cancer at age 58. Chris says the experience taught him you have to fully commit to get results. He remains involved with Haymakers and says it has become an important part of his life.Timestamped Quotes:(00:00:44) "I always was looking for ways to honor my father, who died, you know, again from cancer when he was 58. And I'm 58 now, so it's kind of surreal for me to think that that was it for him, you know, 58."(00:20:53) "I remember Rod saying to me, Man, good thing we didn't have another couple rounds because I was getting gassed and you just kept coming." (00:21:36) "I sat down in the corner and started on taping myself and just kind of, and I'll admit it, I just kind of cried because you just left everything in that ring and it was, uh, It was amazing."(00:22:24) "Listen to your trainer and don't go against what he or she tells you what to do. Go all in."Resource Links:Donate to Chris RohlandDonate to Haymakers for HopeFollow Haymakers on InstagramHaymakers for Hope is an official 501(c)(3) charity organization that gives you the opportunity to fight back against cancer.

It's easy to think of elite athletes as physical outliers, genetic anomalies who are destined for success. But of course, just because you have the tools doesn't mean you can put it all together. The greatest athletes in any sport aren't the most physically gifted; they're the ones who transcended their physical limitations and became something more. Training, mental fortitude, problem solving, poise under pressure — athletes have myriad skills that have been forged in the crucible of competition. And these skills don't just apply to sports. They're transferable to the courtroom and the law office. To that end, we're bringing you the best insights from our conversations with four of the world's most elite athletes so that you can step up your performance and make your career elite. It's All About Preparation For all these athletes, the wins and records stem from training. But it's not just about hitting the gym; it's the mentality you bring to that practice. George Foreman III never lost a professional fight, in part because he challenged himself in training and took his losses there. By the time he got in the ring, the bout was simple compared to what he had overcome before. For attorneys, so much of the outcome is determined before you set foot in the courtroom. The game is when you show how well you've prepared. Edging the Competition in the Details Each of these athletes also carries incredible competitive spirit. But to turn success into dominance, you can't just rely on best practices — that's what Mat Fraser found. At the elite levels of CrossFit, everybody was training hard. To win five titles in a row, Mat had to find the 1% gains on the fringes — perfecting his nutrition, his sleep, his travel. Stacking these small advantages gave him an edge on competition that led to sustained excellence. Just Keep Pushing And just like law, reaching new heights involves navigating the low points. In their journeys, Mark Beaumont and James Lawrence pushed themselves to the limit. They fought through injuries, exhaustion, and the elements. As they persevered, they found they had reserves of strength they didn't even know about. When James reached his goal of 100 triathlons in 100 days, he ran another, just to show that you can always do one more. Mental toughness isn't simply a cliche. It's a skill, cultivated by consistently challenging yourself. There's so much for game-changers to learn from these athletes. Their competitive spirit is parallel to some of the top attorneys in the field, as is their relentless drive to be great. So pop in your earbuds, click play, and start your training. No montage necessary.

"You have to do things that other people aren't willing to do. When you go in that ring, you have to tell yourself: I may lose this fight, but not because I wasn't in condition." - George Foreman III How did years of training — and winning — hone George Foreman III's business clout? What does entrepreneurship have in common with stepping into the boxing ring? What did George Foreman III learn from marketing the most successful household appliance sold in QVC history? How can fighter-level preparedness take your law firm strategy to the next level? George Foreman III: Dedication, Sacrifice, and a Relentless Work Ethic Failure is not in George Foreman III's vocabulary. He's an undefeated pro boxer (who retired with a perfect 16-0 record), trainer, fearless entrepreneur — and yes, son of two-time heavyweight champion George Foreman. He attributes his entrepreneurial prowess to the lesson he learned training and fighting to win. In this episode, we hear George Foreman III's incredible success story: dedication, sacrifice, and a relentless work ethic. Plus, we discuss ways to leverage the fighter mentality both in business and in life. Learning From the Best: Managing the George Foreman Grill Empire Boxing and household goods might seem incongruent, but just about anyone who loves the Foreman legacy has a George Foreman Grill! The grill began as a product promoted by a boxing champion but broke records by representing the real American family, eventually becoming the most successful household appliance sold in QVC history. So how did the Foremans do it? George Foreman III served as the business manager of his dad’s empire and EVP of George Foreman Enterprises, Inc. when the grill boomed. He shares the crucial business lessons he learned from that period, including how to achieve phenomenal success by working small, local markets. From Boxing to Business: Building Mental Resilience One of George Foreman III's biggest takeaways from his years training with his father is mental toughness. He learned the hard way that in any kind of challenge, you have to arrive at a place where cognitive power will take you over the finish line. Quite simply: when the body is tapped out, the mind takes over. George explains how preparation allows him to take his losses ahead of time, so he can show up to his business ready to do battle. His secret weapon? Being willing to do what others aren't. Key takeaways: Even the best laid plans need to flex. It doesn’t matter how smart you are or how perfect your plan is if you can’t pivot and adjust when adversity strikes. Prepare to win. Take your losses in the gym so you don't have to take them in the ring. Boxing and life are all about challenges. Winning is about stepping up, putting in the hours, and stepping out of yourself.

#REPOST: This week on Hurdle, I’m reposting five back-to-back episodes featuring Black guests, hoping to amplify their voices and continue my commitment of being a better ally. Today's episode was originally recorded in June 2019. If you ask George Foreman III what it’s like to grow up with a two-time heavyweight champion as a dad, he’s pretty humble about it—because that’s all he’s ever known. Graduating with a degree in business administration from Rice University, Foreman went on to preside over his dad’s business, traveling the world meeting celebrities and managing contracts. Amidst all the glamour and chaos, he came face to face with his #hurdlemoment. Standing at 6’5’’ and weighing in at more than 280 pounds, he realized he wasn’t happy in his corner of the world, going as far as to shut himself in a hotel room for three days. Then, he made the jump into boxing himself. After a year of training, Foreman stepped into the ring for his first fight weighing in at 231 pounds. He’d go on to have an undefeated professional boxing career that ended in 2012, a year before he opened the first EverybodyFights in Boston. In today's episode, we chat about everything from depression and the scary side of entrepreneurship to his goals for expanding EverybodyFights dramatically by 2021.

George "Monk" Foreman III is an entrepreneur, professional boxer, trainer/coach, founder of EverybodyFights, and son of businessman and former two-time heavyweight champion George Foreman. He serves as the business manager and Executive VP of his father's business empire George Foreman Enterprises, Inc. He also starred on the E! network's reality series Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive. He opened a boxing fitness gym in Boston called "The Club by George Foreman III". In an effort to further promote the core beliefs of the gym's culture George eventually changed the name of the gym to EverybodyFights. In 2016, the company received a series-A investment from Breakaway in the form of $4 million and soon after announced the opening of another location in Boston. Since then, Everybody Fights has opened 5 locations and plans to open over 20 new locations by 2020 for growth in other major cities across the U.S. Podcast Highlights Who is George Foreman III? George describes himself as a really sad and quiet child. He cried when he got his first B in school and he didn’t see his next one until he was 17 years old. To George, the real risk is life passing you by and never coming back. If you have the chance to look back at your life in your last moments, the real risk is regrets. As part of George’s boxing career, he had an agreement with his father where his dad would train him, but at the same time George had to train other people as well. After finding some success in his boxing career, George realized that if he could make a reasonable living doing what he wanted to do, which was to teach and instill fitness in others, than that would be a success as well. EverybodyFights When George decided to open his gym he put his business plan together in seven days and it was during a brainstorming session with his friend where the EverybodyFights name came from. As soon as he heard it he knew he had a winner, but it actually held him back initially. When trying to lease a space George had to adjust the name to The Club by George Foreman III. It wasn’t until a few years later and the business had found its footing that he decided to change the name back to EverybodyFights because it fit his core message better. Brand is what you make of it. If you execute and your company culture is on point, your message is clear and consistent, and you act with integrity you can make a big brand out of any name. Another Fitness Club? At the time there weren’t a huge number of boxing clubs around so the market wasn’t too saturated. As part of his strategy with investors George took a large pay cut to prove his confidence and dedication to the business. Once he had the money in place, he also had to prove the concept to the community and that involved a lot of meetings with the city. When you sign the right deals and have a business with a decent profit margin, you can take some chances and experiment with things. When George opened his first gym he had boxing and yoga under one roof, in addition to pilates and cycling. He also taught a number of classes and within a year his gym became the best gym in Boston. George’s ultimate goal is to make fitness free. He would like to create a way where other co
George "Monk" Foreman III is an entrepreneur, boxing trainer and coach, and the son of legendary businessman and former two-time heavyweight champion George Foreman Sr. In addition to being his father’s business manager for seven years, Foreman III spent his entire youth working at the George Foreman Youth & Community Center, where he not only developed the habit of giving back but also honed his ability to effectively use boxing as a platform to effect change within the community. After earning a degree in kinesiology from Rice University, Foreman III went on to pursue his own professional boxing career in 2009 and finished with a perfect 16-0 record. In 2013, Foreman III founded a luxury boxing fitness gym called EverybodyFights. In 2018, the company started its national expansion, with over 22 new locations planned to open by 2022. Foreman III’s mission is to use his background in boxing as a platform to teach the mental laws of fighting to as many people as possible. In 2013 he published his first book The Fighting Spirit, which includes his original 12 “Fight Laws.” https://www.instagram.com/Everybodyfights/ https://everybodyfights.com/

George Foreman III may be the son of the two-time world heavyweight champion and Olympic gold medalist, but it’s the business lessons he’s carried forward from family more than anything. Today, George feels passion for both boxing and business, with foresight and fortune of an entrepreneur. In this episode, we get a lesson in discipline and putting your ego aside. Watch the full episode on YouTube George “Monk” Foreman III says that it was always weird watching his dad on TV, but the fight game didn’t get in the way of family life, as his dad gave his kids all the attention they needed and more. George’s own boxing career saw him go 16-0 as a heavyweight, with 15 knockouts. Managed by his father, he spent training time learning how to grind and never give up, dragging vehicles and performing functional fitness movements such as digging and chopping wood. This not only gave George Foreman III his endurance and strength for the ring, but taught him determination and perseverance for his entrepreneurial journey, too. George Foreman III has always been driven by a passion for boxing in business, ever since his father’s instruction to run the combat element of his own training space. In 2014, George opened EverybodyFights. He’d done his research. Boston was number one city in the nation for percentage of the population with a gym membership. It was also number three in terms of average price paid per membership. Looking into break even points, George’s findings meant that his vision and business plan for a boxing gym made total sense. EverybodyFights has opened five new locations since 2014. New York, Boston, Kentucky, Chicago, and Philadelphia in 2019. Visit everybodyfights.com and unleash your inner fighter. Episode Highlights Learn ways to ensure that nothing or nobody can push you as hard as you’re willing to push yourself. How to avoid imitation over authenticity in any entrepreneurial venture. Make your decisions based on the belief that your vision is going to work out. Give your brain the opportunity to be creative enough so you can execute your vision, regardless of your situation. Why doing your research on the competition is important before any business venture, even to the point of where George Foreman III physically ran to and toured every location in Boston to see what he was up against. The importance of real estate insight before you even think about what you’d like to do in the building itself. Hear the reasons why you’re supposed to quit. Why nobody else does what’s needed with an innovative venture, and what you need to get through it. The best way to market and why it’s about authenticity and not just advertising to any particular cultural division, nationality, gender or age group. Make it real.

George Foreman III is a professional boxer, fitness instructor, author, entrepreneur, and the founder of EverybodyFights, a Boston-based luxury boxing gym with locations around the country. And if you didn’t catch it in the name, he’s also the son of legendary two-time world heavyweight champion, “Big” George Foreman, Sr. Looking at George, the son of an international boxing legend, it could be easy to assume that things were handed to him. But the real story is so much better. The gym, EverybodyFights, didn’t get its name from the notion that everyone should box—although that certainly wouldn’t hurt business. Instead, it’s about the fact that everybody fights, we all do, every day—for the things we want and need. EverybodyFights was not funded by the George Foreman Grill. In fact, George lived on his business partner’s couch for 14 months during the time it took to get the business off the ground. And, together, they took 91 meetings to secure funding to open the first gym. As a pro boxer with a 16-0 record, George knows what it means to be a fighter. And in his first book, The Fighting Spirit, he shares the strategies and mental tactics that give him strength, motivation, and focus. So, on the eve of EverybodyFights opening its sixth location—a 12,000-square-foot coliseum of a gym in Philadelphia, the culmination and physical embodiment of everything George has learned over the past five years since founding EverybodyFights and prior as a professional boxer—I thought it would be the perfect time to air this tremendous interview. While we had collaborated briefly in the past, this interview was the first time I got to sit down with George and really dig into all the questions I had for him. From his early days as a pro boxer and all it took to get to that point, including training under his father, to running a successful, rapidly expanding business—with the help of a few tactics learned in the boxing ring. We talk about how to keep things in perspective, and what it really takes to create your own legacy. We also discuss how to approach decisions from a position of power rather than fear, and much, much more. It’s an episode worthy of a season finale if ever there was one. -------------------------------------- This episode is brought to you by iFIT NOURISH. iFIT NOURISH delivers personalized nutrition to your door—with protein, vitamins, and minerals to support your individual needs.

Are there limits of legacy? Just because you're born into a family doesn't mean you're bound by their identity. What appears to be a blessing is sometimes a curse, and alternately what seems like a curse can become your biggest blessing. If you've been struggling with life, feeling out of balance, invisible but ready to been seen, this is the show for you! Join Dr. D and special guest, boxer, entrepreneur, and television personality George "Monk" Foreman, III. He is the son of former two-time heavyweight champion George Foreman. They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree; George followed in the footsteps of his legendary dad but is definitely wearing his own shoes. George has carved out his unique identity despite what many might see as a looming shadow cast by the hugeness of his father's legend, at one point tipping the scale at nearly 300 pounds, and being one of 5 "George's" in his home. Despite and/or because of it all, Foreman has achieved great success. He served as the business manager of his father's multi-billion dollar empire, starred on the E! network's Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive, and started training for boxing in 2009 becoming a champ in his own right. He recently opened The Club by George Foreman III, a 15,000 square foot luxury gym where he now inspires others to let out their own inner champion both in and outside the ring!
