George Foreman is mourning the passing of his daughter Freeda after her death at the young age of 42.

The former world heavyweight champion and Olympic gold medalist, 70, posted a heartfelt message about his daughter’s death to Twitter on Sunday.

He began by remembering how Freeda had wanted to follow in his footsteps as a boxer, saying she told him, “Daddy I want to box.”

His advice to her was to “get an education first” — a feat he was proud that she did. “She brought the bacon home (degree),” Foreman tweeting, adding a picture of the two of them at her college graduation from Sam Houston State University.

Freeda would go on to begin boxing professionally, taking on the profession in 2000 before retiring the next year with a record of 5-1. In addition to her education and her boxing career, she was also mother to two kids with her husband and grandmother to three grandchildren, Foreman noted.

“First Sunday in 42 years without my Freeda,” he lamented. “She’s with her maker now.”

“Just one more day I wanted,” Foreman, a father of 12, added. “Okay, one more year — aww one more decade.”

On Saturday, TMZ — saying they heard from law enforcement sources — reported that Freeda was found unresponsive in her home near Houston, Texas, by a family member. The outlet said that police are waiting on a report from the coroner’s office to determine Freeda’s cause of death, but do not suspect foul play.

Houston’s NBC affiliate KPRC-TV reported that sources said officers with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office were called to her home around 6:13 p.m. on Friday night.

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office and reps for Foreman did not give a response when questioned.
