Canadian rapper Drake faced a substantial setback, losing a whopping $600,000 bet following Anthony Joshua's knockout victory against Francis Ngannou in their heavyweight match. Known for his previous bets on fights, Drake had staked on former UFC champion Ngannou to win, with a potential payout of nearly $2 million.
However, Joshua dominated the bout, ultimately knocking Ngannou out. This defeat marks another notable event in Drake's history of high-stakes wagers, including a previous $1.3 million win betting on Logan Paul against Conor McGregor's training partner.
Despite the setback, Drake remains undeterred, emphasizing the unpredictable nature of the heavyweight division and expressing admiration for Ngannou's skills.
