MIKE TYSON has landed a new “deeply personal” job away from boxing.
The 58-year-old, who was beaten in his controversial comeback fight by Jake Paul in November, is the new CEO of Carma HoldCo.

His new role comes amid a change in the holding company’s “strategic leadership” setup.
Tyson already has close ties to Carma HoldCo as they are the parent business to his cannabis brand Tyson 2.0.
They also look after WWE legend Ric Flair’s similar weed-selling firm Drip.
Iron Mike said in a statement: “Carma HoldCo was built on the belief that powerful stories and even more powerful products can change how people connect with wellness, entertainment and culture.
“This isn’t just a title — it’s a responsibility I take seriously.
“I’ve wanted to be more involved for a long time and now is the right time to take that step.
“I’m fully committed to making sure everything we create stays true to who we are while growing in new and exciting ways.”
Carma HoldCo added that the new role was “a deeply personal progression for Tyson himself”.

And they claimed his increased input would strengthen “brand authenticity, creativity and meaningful consumer experiences”.
Tyson is said to be earning around £500,000 every month via his cannabis business that offers premium marijuana strains and edibles.
The company is based in California where the drug is legal.
Tyson has found comfort in cannabis and claims it has made him a much calmer and happier person.
The former heavyweight champion played down talk of him returning to the ring, saying earlier this week: “The only person I’m fighting now is my accountant.
“Other than that, I’m just living life and I’m doing good right now.”
But Paul is ready to put his gloves back and is set to fight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
