Mike Tyson tries Wiz Khalifa’s kush-up challenge
In an episode of his podcast Hotboxin’ with Khalifa recently, Tyson had a hilarious moment where he choked while smoking weed. ‘Iron Mike’ was trying to do Khalifa’s ‘kush-up’ challenge, which involved taking ten puffs without exhaling. While the rapper performed flawlessly, the former heavyweight champion didn’t.
Khalifa initially explained to Tyson what the ‘kush up’ challenge is and explained how to do it. As such, during the ‘kush-up’ challenge, Tyson took about two puffs before violently choking on the smoke. The people in the room began laughing as Tyson asked God to help him while he coughed.
Khalifa humbly remarked that Tyson has to work on his ‘kush ups’ more because he only did two. While Tyson was not able to do the challenge, he is still an avid weed smoker and advocate. Tyson recently wrote a letter to the US president to grant citizenship to people arrested for non-violent Marijauna crimes.
