FORMER heavyweight contender Ron Lyle, who fought Muhammad Ali for the title in 1975 and later battled George Foreman, has died in Denver, Colorado, at age 70. Lyle died on Saturday from complications from a sudden stomach ailment, said Ron McKinney, a Salvation Army official in Denver. McKinney, a family friend who hired Lyle to start the charity's boxing program in 2002, said Lyle retired from the program last December but continued to work out at the gym every day. Lyle lost to both fellow Americans Ali and Foreman in the mid-1970s. After his career in boxing, Lyle lived in Las Vegas where he trained young boxers and worked as a security guard.
