Who in the world wouldn’t want to work with Mike Tyson? In a surprising twist of fate, the boxer-turned-millionaire businessman offered a partnership deal to an audience member. However, things aren’t that simple because the Heavyweight champion had one condition. The former champion has built himself a whopping $160 million cannabis business empire in the course of the last handful of years and has collaborated with some of the best minds.

Not so long ago, ‘Iron’ Mike partnered with Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, and Evander Holyfield, forming highly lucrative partnerships. So, the same for a budding entrepreneur attending the VAULT Conference Interview with Patrick Bet-David, featuring Mike Tyson, the offer was life-changing. However, as luck had it, the offer came with a condition. 

Mike Tyson asked the audience member to give him a call

While discussing the importance of a mentor, the audience was given the opportunity to ask Mike whatever they wanted. So, one guy made the most out of the opportunity to ask Mike, “What’s the mindset you have when you’re looking to team up with somebody in the Cannabis industry?” Unexpectedly, Mike had an offer ready for the guy.

Mike immediately interrupted him and asked, “Well, what do you have to offer?” The guy responded by suggesting he had a few cannabis retail stores and a lot of knowledge about the domain. So, ‘Kid Dynamite’ asked how many stores he had. The guy claimed, “One, working on three.” That’s when Mike introduced the dreaded condition for the partnership. “When you get a 100, give me a call,” said Mike. With Mike’s offer out of the way, his parent company recently achieved a new milestone.

‘Iron’ Mike’s $160 million partnership proves to be a boon

The parent company behind Mike’s ‘Tyson 2.0’ is a company called Carma HoldCo and the CEO of Carma HoldCo, Adam Wilks, turned to Instagram, sharing the good news with their followers online. Wilks wrote in the caption, “Proud of the team — Big things coming in 2024!”

Wondering what was the achievement? Well, Carma HoldCo was featured in the coveted Cannabis 50 list. It’s the fifth iteration of the annual listings, and this year, it honored Carma HoldCo for its influence in the domain. “MGO unveils ‘Cannabis 50’ list, spotlights Carma Hold Co’s influence in the industry,” wrote Wilks.
