On October 28, two heavyweight champions will come face-to-face in an epic showdown. While the fans eagerly await the fight in Riyadh, the fighters are busy training for the same. Even though Tyson Fury is the crowd favorite in the lead to the fight, Francis Ngannou has the legend Mike Tyson on his side. Following a recent development, however, ‘Iron’ Mike has hit the breaks on Ngannou’s training. But why?

The former world champion recently launched a new coffee shop with his brand name, Tyson 2.0. He even visited the shop on 13th September, pausing Ngannou’s training camp. Meanwhile, Ngannou took the time to make an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast. While in the interview, Joe Rogan helped Ngannou with a new style of healing technique that can help him with the upcoming bout. What is this revolutionary technique?

Halfway through the podcast, Rogan and Ngannou started discussing the latter’s knee surgery. It naturally led to a discussion about a new-age therapy. Rogan inquired, “Did you get any stem cells or anything?” In response, Ngannou shared his experience with PRP treatment, stating, “Not yet, I had a..PRP.” But Rogan, having dealt with such treatments before, informed Ngannou about a company in Austin. The company helps people recover from serious injuries through procedures like Stem Cell therapy.

“There is a company in Austin, ‘Ways2Well’, that I wanted to hook you up with,” Rogan told Ngannou during the podcast. Ngannou seemed to be aware of the company and told Rogan he had been trying to contact them. “Yes, I get in contact with them. I haven’t get them to do my exam.” However, Rogan told Ngannou that he would get things sorted out easily. Rogan further added, “It’ll help you.”

Mike launched his cannabis company in December 2021, selling a plethora of cannabis products. In an interview with Muscle and Health, Mike even revealed he used to smoke cannabis when he was young. But he stopped when he started his boxing career, claiming he missed out on the substance as an athlete.

Recently, Mike opened a restaurant under the Tyson 2.0 brand alongside his business partner and CEO Adam Wilks. It’s the first time Mike is taking his business venture into the European market. The move from Tyson and his business partner can prove to be highly lucrative. That’s because of two main reasons. One, Europe, especially Amsterdam, receives millions of tourists every year. Second, Mike’s name will attract a lot of people.
