Mike Tyson is enjoying California's legalization of recreational marijuana.

On a recent episode of his "Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson" podcast, the former heavyweight boxing champion revealed that he spends tens of thousands on weed each month.

"What do we smoke a month? Is it, what, $40,000 a month?" Tyson asked his co-host, former NFL offensive lineman Eben Britton.

"We smoke 10 tons of weed at the ranch a month," Britton added, referencing Tyson's 40-acre marijuana farm, Tyson Ranch Resort, in El Segundo, Calif.

Tyson threw a cannabis-friendly music festival at his farm earlier this year and is set to host a three-day "consumable cannabis experience" in October.
