George Foreman is one of the most popular speakers from the sports world. Last week, he served as the keynote speaker at the Sage Summit at the Georgia World Congress Center in downtown Atlanta. 

Sage is a company that specializes in cloud accounting and business management software. Foreman talked about his career and the obstacles he overcame to reach boxing's pinnacle. 

There were over 5,000 people in attendance to hear his remarks. He implored those listening to keep fighting for everything they want in life. 

Foreman first made his name by winning gold in the heavyweight division at the 1968 Olympics. In 1973, he beat the then-undefeated Joe Frazier to win the world heavyweight title for the first time. 

After two title defenses, Foreman lost for the first time in his career in "The Rumble in the Jungle" against Muhammad Ali. While he retired in 1977, he made a triumphant return to the sport in 1987. 

At the age of 45 in 1994, Foreman beat the odds to regain the title of world heavyweight champion. He is a member of the World Boxing Hall of Fame and the International Boxing Hall of Fame.
