Mike Tyson to launch weed brand in Thailand years after nearly being arrested for it

Legendary boxer Mike Tyson is bringing his cannabis brand Tyson 2.0 to Thailand, the same country where he nearly got in trouble with the law for the same recreational drug. Expanding to Asia: The company announced in a press release on Wednesday that it entered a partnership with Medican, better known as Frost, a leading international cultivator and supplier of cannabis, to exclusively cultivate, manufacture and distribute medical and recreational cannabis products in Thailand. Thailand will serve as Tyson 2.0’s entry to Asia, the third continent the brand has expanded to after North America and Europe, where Tyson 2.0 recently opened a branded coffee shop in Amsterdam in the Netherlands.
