MIKE TYSON is in talks with ex-UFC champion Fabricio Werdum over taking his £500,000-a-month cannabis empire to Brazil.
The heavyweight legend partnered up with businessman Rob Hickman to launch the Tyson Ranch, built over 418-acres.
His business offers premium marijuana strains, edibles and extracts and Werdum wants to work with Tyson on a CBD range.
He said, via Sherdog: “I talked to Mike that I would love to take CBD to Brazil, and he loved the idea.
“The situation of CBD in Brazil is different from USA, but we are working on that.”
CBD, short for cannabidiol, is the chemical naturally found in marijuana plants.
It has been shown to be a powerful anti-inflammatory medication, and athletes have used it in oil form for recovery.
Tyson, 54, has his own CBD line which no doubt helped his body as he dramatically transformed back into fighting shape.
Iron Mike completed his comeback, 15 years after retiring, last November as he boxed to a draw over eight exhibitions rounds against Roy Jones Jr, 52.
Tyson confirmed he will fight again this year and SunSport revealed he is in talks for a trilogy with long-time rival Evander Holyfield.

It is understood the pair – with a combined age of 112 – are in negotiations to extend their rivalry with a third fight in Dubai.
The American heavyweights went toe-to-toe twice, with Holyfield winning the thrilling November 1996 original with an 11th-round stoppage.
The rematch, seven months later, is one of the most infamous in history after Tyson was disqualified for biting off a chunk of the Real Deal’s ear.
