George Foreman lost to Muhammad Ali in the famous "Rumble in the Jungle" due to Ali's strategic approach, which involved using the "rope-a-dope" technique. Ali absorbed Foreman's powerful punches while leaning against the ropes, conserving his energy and allowing Foreman to tire himself out. In the eighth round, Ali capitalized on Foreman's fatigue, knocking him out with a series of quick punches, securing his victory and reclaiming the heavyweight title.
