Freeda Foreman, the daughter of boxing legend George Foreman, has been found dead, according to reports.
TMZ.com is reporting that the 42-year-old’s body was found in her Houston-area area home by another family member. ABC13 Houston says homicide investigators determined there was no foul play.
Foreman followed her father’s path, becoming a professional boxer before retiring in 2001.
“Dad never wanted any of his kids to see him fight,” she told the London Mirror in 2000. “He always protected us from that world.”
Freeda is one of George Foreman’s seven daughters. She appeared in several documentaries about her father, and even voiced a character on a 2003 episode of the animated series King of the Hill.
According to TMZ, Freeda is survived by her husband, 2 daughters, 3 grandchildren, her parents and 11 siblings.

That's sad. She is/was only 42yo. I imagine this wil take a significant toll on Big George. I had seen her fight back when Laila and Joe Frazier's daughter were all boxing. This will be horrible for all of her family that she leaves behind.
RIP much to young… I thought all of his kids were named some variation of “George”?
Dang, RIP. How did she die? They said no foul play - so do they know how she died?
Thanks!

Five boys are named George. He has a few daughters, Freeda, Georgetta(of course), I think he has one named Natalia or similar and one or two other girls. He has a lot of kids.
^ Thanks for the extra clarification…
