Former heavyweight champion George Foreman has turned down a fight with Sweden’s Anders Eklund, but still plans to fight on a March 19 card in Las Vegas, according to Lee Samuels, a spokesman for Top Rank, which is promoting the card at Caesars Palace.

Samuels said that Foreman turned down the fight with Eklund because he just didn’t like him as an opponent.
