Inside Tyson's 165-hectare cannabis resort
Former heavyweight world champion Mike Tyson has revealed plans to launch a 165-hectare cannabis resort.
When you have as much wealth and time as Tyson likely has, anything is possible. The Tyson Ranch will complement his cannabis company Tyson Holistic Holdings, which he created in 2016. It sells marijuana strains, edibles and merchandise. The ranch will include a festival venue and the world's longest lazy river, which will apparently take an hour to float down.
There are even plans for a hotel. It will also include Tyson University that will be dedicated to teaching cannabis growing techniques to would-be farmers.
Tyson will also use the ranch for research purposes, as he dedicates himself to his new business venture. Tyson Ranch will span across 165-hectare and according to GQ, you will be able to smoke anywhere on the Californian plot, but marijuana will not be available to buy onsite. Work started on the ranch near Desert Hot Springs in 2017. In an interview with Cannabis Tech Today, Tyson outlined his vision.
“I thought about how much good I could do by helping people with cannabis. It was a no-brainer,” he said.
When he's not building his cannabis empire, Tyson hosts a podcast show. He recently had Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan on as a guest, with the outspoken presenter sparking up on the show. Describing their wide-ranging, cannabis-fuelled chat for Mail Online, he added that the former boxer gave him a weed-themed goody bag from his ranch. Piers wrote in his column: “Whatever your side of the debate about marijuana - I view it as less dangerous than alcohol or cigarettes - I've never seen a happier, calmer Mike Tyson.”
Michael Gerard Tyson, born on 30 June 1966, is the former undisputed king of heavyweight boxing and competed from 1985 to 2005.
He holds the record as the youngest boxer to win a heavyweight title at 20 years, four months and 22 days old.
