Former boxing rivals Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield have set their differences aside and joined forces to launch a new line of cannabis-infused edibles. The edibles, which come 25 years after Tyson bit off a chunk of Holyfield's ear during a heavyweight championship match, bear the appropriate name "Holy Ears." They're shaped like little ears. "Back then, we didn’t realize that even as power athletes," Holyfield says in a statement released Monday. "We were also in a lot of pain. Now we have the opportunity to share the medicine we really needed throughout our careers." Holy Ears will be available later this month online and at retailers in Arizona, Illinois, Nevada and New Jersey, the duo reports.
Is this a clever idea? Or are Tyson and Holyfield selling out?
