Superstar rapper, Aubrey Drake Graham, better known as Drake, has lost a huge sum of $600,000 after betting on Francis Ngannou to defeat Anthony Joshua in a heavyweight boxing bout on Friday night.
The rapper’s bet of $600,000 on Francis Ngannou to knock out Anthony Joshua ended in futility as the Brit won by KO in the second round.
The Canadian rap star was hoping for an outrageous payday of over £1million after wagering on the bout in Saudi Arabia.
However, the British star dispatched Ngannou in just two rounds.
Joshua delivered a devastating knockout on Ngannou that sent the Cameroonian clashing to the surface in brutal fashion and later receiving medical care in the ring before getting to his feet.
The result means Drake’s losing streak in combat sports continue.
In January, Drake lost over half-a-million pounds when he backed Sean Strickland to defend his UFC middleweight championship against Dricus Du Plessis.
The 37-year-old also lost £430,000 when Israel Adesanya suffered a shock defeat against Strickland in the octagon and previously bet £700,000 on Logan Paul to beat Dillon Danis in the boxing ring.
