On the new partnership, Holyfield commented, “I am very proud to be working with The Georgia Hemp Company. Not only are they local to my hometown of Atlanta, but as an athlete, it’s incredibly important to me that I am using products that are natural and will help take my career to the next level. I hope that our partnership will promote the health benefits of CBD – not only for athletes, but everyone –  and how it can aid the recovery process and overall wellness.”

“This partnership is helping bring attention to what CBD can do for the body and addressing fitness from a preparatory and preventative angle,” explained Ryan Dills, Managing Partner of The Georgia Hemp Company. “We hope to bring some alignment with recovery and rehabilitative approaches that are essential in high impact/combat sports.”
