Drake, a famous Canadian rapper, lost almost $500,000 (120 million Naira) this past weekend after placing two bets totalling $200,000 on Kamaru Usman to defeat Leon Edwards after already losing $230,000 on Jose Aldo.

Drake bet $200,000 on Usman to defeat Edwards on the first ticket. The other was a combination of victory for Usman to win and also for a Jose Aldo victory worth $230,000. Clearly, neither prediction was accurate at all.

Both outcomes were defeats for the fighters Drake bet on as he lost a combined $430,000 on two UFC278 tickets.

Usman suffered a shock defeat to Jamaican-born British professional MMA star Leon Edwards in the early hours of Sunday, August 21, 2022.

Drake’s appearance at numerous sporting events throughout the years wearing the uniform of the losing team served as the inspiration for the term “Drake Curse.”

This weekend, fans were quick to make fun of him once more after he flaunted the bets he had placed beforehand through his social media channels.

This comes months after Drake put a huge amount of money on Nigerian-born New Zealand professional MMA star Israel Mobolaji Adesanya.

Adesanya would make Drake money by defeating Jarod Cannonier by unanimous decision.

Drake then decided to bet on Usman, Adesanya’s compatriot but the result was different.

Drake put out two tickets on his official social media handles just before the start of UFC 278 at the Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Drake had placed two bets on the Kamaru vs. Edwards match, both of which were unsuccessful.

The Canadian first wagered £125,000 ($149,000) on Nigerian fighter Kamaru to prevail through knockout.

He then spent an additional £44,000 ($49,000) on Kamaru to win the fourth round.
