It's been reported that Drake lost $565,000 after betting on Tyson Fury to defeat Oleksandr Usyk in their recent match in Saudi Arabia. Unfortunately for the Canadian rapper, Fury lost to Usyk by split decision, causing Drake to face a disappointing outcome.
If his bet had been successful, Drake would have won over £800,000 in prize money.
Usyk's remarkable performance in Riyadh earned him the title of undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.
This loss adds to Drake's history of high-profile bets on sporting events, which have yielded mixed results.
Although he recently secured a massive £3 million payday after betting on Paddy Pimblett and Molly McCann in London in 2022, his luck with the bookies has been inconsistent.
