Ever since marijuana was made legal in certain states in the United States of America, especially in California, celebrities have begun to venture into the its production and cashing in on increasing demand.
Former world boxing heavy-weight champion, Mike Tyson, is one of those celebrities keen on going into full scale production of the formerly banned psychoactive substance.
On Dec. 20, 2017, Tyson started his pot business and later acquired a 40-acre multi-purpose farm which will be used for all production related to marijuana marijuana.

The 40-acre farm which is called the “Tyson Ranch” is located at California City, a town of about 14,000 people in the Mojave Desert, which islocated in southwestern United States, primarily within southeastern California and southern Nevada.
The legendary boxer said that cannabis has helped him through aches and pains.
He said, “I’ve been fighting for over 20 years and I have so many aches and pains. If I didn’t have cannabis I don’t know what would happen.”
Mike’s victory title was stripped off him 18 years ago when he won against Polish boxer Andrew Golota after which he reluctantly took a urine test and was tested positive for cannabis.
American celebrities like Willie Nelson, Snoop Dogg, Whoopi Goldberg and Cheech & Chong are all into the same line of business but Tyson has surpassed them in production.
The ranch is said to have paid professional marijuana growers, an amphitheater, a supply store, campground, and a factory for edibles.
