Tyson 2.0 – Knockout, Undisputed Cannabis

What makes a cannabis brand stand apart from others? For some, it’s the triched-out flower. For others, it’s the clarity and potency of cannabis concentrates. For Tyson 2.0, it’s Mike Bites ear-shaped edibles and psychedelics-inspired strains.

Tyson 2.0 is a knockout cannabis brand – this pun, and many more, intended.

Tyson 2.0 – Undisputedly Premium Cannabis

Cannabis is a powerful plant. While this can reflect potency and effects, that’s not what we have in mind.

Cannabis has the power to bring about meaningful, personal change. That’s what Mike found in his exploration of cannabis, as shared with Green Entrepreneur:

This plant-based therapeutic has struck him, as he told Forbes at Zen Leaf Prospect Heights:

This is what I’m going to do for the rest of my life.

Now, while Mike sees the beauty and promise of the plant, he understands cannabis culture, too. His tongue-in-cheek approach to cannabis products is fun and even nostalgic, particularly when it comes to edibles.

Holy Ears Gummies

Tyson 2.0's newest edibles addition was born from what may be an unexpected partnership: Mike and Evander Holyfield (yes, the Holyfield). The boxing legends and former rivals now have something to celebrate together with Holy Ears cannabis edibles. Holy Ears are a play on the infamous matchup from 25 years ago, when Mike Tyson memorably took a bite from Holyfield's ear.  

This gummy option will be available in one flavor – Black Cherry, and each package will have a total of 100mg of THC. The all-natural, vegan, and gluten-free gummy makes it that much more enticing to take a bite out of. The partnership between the two legends will be lasting until Evander launches his own cannabis line starting in 2023.

You can’t take yourself too seriously, no one knows this more than Mike Tyson. His infamous bout in the ring with Evander Holyfield is cemented in sports history, and now, in cannabis edibles.

Mike Bites gummies are an ear-shaped masterpiece, featuring a small bite out of the tip of the ear. Variety is the key to life, and Mike Bites delivers just that in six delicious flavors: Black Raspberry, Watermelon, Red Raspberry, Mixed Berry, Green Apple and Sour Apple. Each ear-shaped edible provides 10 mg of THC, promoting relaxation with a punch of fruity goodness.

Tyson 2.0 Flower

Because flower remains the heavyweight champ of cannabis products, Tyson 2.0 crafts three lines of flower to tailor to differing needs, each packing a punch of their own and available in eighths or pre-rolls:

Specialty Toad Genetics

Toad genetics are not for the faint of heart. The Toad, Sonoran Toad, and Intergalactic Toad are three strains crafted based on rather unique experiences of Mike’s – his desert toad licking. His venture into psychedelics inspired him to create cannabis strains that provide intense experiences like that of his toad-licking.

Indoor-Grown Flower

Those in the industry know that if you’re seeking to influence the way your cannabis plants grow, the best way to do so is growing indoors. Tyson 2.0 leverages indoor grows to craft not only the infamous Toad genetics but select strains like Tiger Mintz.

Greenhouse and Sun-Grown Flower

While lower in potency, this flower line does not hold back once in the ring of your bowl. The greenhouse and sun-grown cultivars from Tyson 2.0 are grown with pure sunlight, as the plant has come to fruition naturally for millennia.

Tyson 2.0 Cannabis Strains

A cannabis line would be nothing without the genetics that fuel it. Tyson 2.0 carries a host of strains to explore, including:

• Dynamite Cookies – sativa strain with an exploding smell of dank, sweet licorice that gives a focused hit to the head
• Tiger Mintz – pound for pound, this potent strain is what many call cannabis excellence. Flavors of mint, earth, and coffee tantalize the senses
• The Toad – the first strain created under the Tyson 2.0 line; it has been known to offer a trippy experience like no other, a cerebral euphoria fades into full body relief and offers notes of orange and cinnamon
• Sonoran Toad – earthy terpenes layer the mother of all toads, as a sativa-dominate hybrid it can gift you with tranquil sedation or functional headiness
• Desert Toad – earth, pepper, and a rich tangy flavor sends you into a tranquil and euphoric state of mind with a relaxing and long-lasting calm across the body
• Intergalactic Toad – crossing GMO and Han Solo Burger produced what some might say is “the best in the galaxy,” with its mentally uplifting effects and savory, funk terpene profile

Those who have tried the Mike Tyson-endorsed strains agree that they are worth Mike’s hype.

I had high expectations and this lived up to them. I REALLY felt BETTER in mind, body and spirit IMMEDIATELY.

Overall Tyson packs a punch with this one. The presenation of the bud looks pretty with darker tones and condensed orange pistol hairs. The true smell is revealed once the bud is cracked open and from there it breaks down in a crumble format without a grinder. I enjoyed this bud as it gave me a really relaxed high.
