Hi Ho! From the ring to the boardroom. The rivalry between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul will reach its peak at the Cowboys Stadium. However, there’s a chance it might spill over into other arenas as well. The pair is slated for a much-anticipated face-off on November 15. The showdown between a 58-year-old former heavyweight champion and a 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer has become one of the boxing world’s favorite talking points. With just a fortnight left for the clash, reports reveal that Carma HoldCo, the parent company of Mike Tyson’s cannab*s brand Tyson 2.0 and Ric Flair Drip, has struck a partnership with a plant-based food brand.
The news follows Jake Paul’s latest collaboration with a restaurant chain, Dog Haus. Outside of their passion for boxing, both Tyson and Paul have achieved quite an enviable success as businessmen. The youngest heavyweight champion has taken considerable strides in the cannab*s sector with Tyson 2.0. Especially in the last few years, his venture has witnessed a tremendous expansion. The brand value of his business reportedly exceeds $160 million! ‘The Problem Child’ doesn’t stand far behind. Despite his youth, time and again he has displayed a sharp sense of business.
