Mike Tyson has shared his theory that homeless people are being intentionally targeted by rich and wealthy people for sport. The boxing champion recently appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, where he made his comments while smoking marijuana with the host, who appeared heavily absorbed by the conversation.
Mike had initiated the debate when he started off saying, “Whatever you think a human did to another human being – it happened,” prompting Joe to respond, “Somewhere in history?” The 55-year-old replied, “Yeah, and sometimes these special camps and stuff, it happens. These people own these thousands of acres and nothing grows on ‘em.” Joe chimed in, insisting that those acres are commonly turned to ranches “where people do rituals and s***.”
“Might want to hunt a motherf*****,” Mike continued, with Joe accepting that the thought was not outside the realm of possibility. “I guarantee you there’s been someone, somewhere in the world who paid someone to hunt a person,” the New Jersey native expressed. “I guarantee you that’s happened!” The remark induced Mike to assert, “This is what happens: they take these homeless people off the streets. Put ‘em in there, take them to one of those special hospitals. “[Then] they take them from the hospital, all drugged up, take ’em to these large estates, property – ‘let’s hunt’ – Run!”

The pair dug deeper into their conversation when the former professional athlete quizzed Joe on why he believed people tend to hunt foxes, to which the latter answered, “their fur.” Mike agreed, suggesting that hunters were ultimately beginning to look for a new test, elucidating that these omnivorous mammals were the only challenging chase because hunting anything else would be “too easy.”
“So now, they say, ‘Well the fox is the most reasonable animal, let’s try a human animal, see how reasonable he is.’” Joe nodded his head, appearing to be in deep thoughts about the chat as he added, “Guaranteed.”

Just last month, it was revealed that Mike had teamed up with WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair as the pair went into business together to launch their very own cannabis line. The Hangover star’s Tyson 2.0 cannabis firm has reportedly obtained a majority stake in Ric Flair Drip, Inc.
The deal has essentially given Mike’s company the right to “assume control of Ric Flair’s trademarks and intellectual properties to launch cannabis flower and edible products under the Ric Flair brand name in the near future,” as revealed in the pair’s statement.
“Thanks to Mike Tyson and Tyson 2.0, I’ve become a true cannabis advocate and enthusiast,” the ex-wrestler continued. “I am thrilled to partner with a long time friend and fellow warrior whom I greatly admire and respect. With Mike’s passion for cannabis, Chad and Adam’s industry knowledge, I look forward to creating cannabis products that will appeal to my national fanbase.”
