Drake is understood for not being afraid to take a risk, but his latest gamble didn’t repay, inflicting the rapper to lose just about 1/2 a million.
According to CBS, Drake wager $400,000 that Jake Paul would take out Tommy Fury throughout their Sunday battle in Saudi Arabia. However, the YouTube sensation didn’t pop out on the a success aspect, making it Jake’s first loss in his profession as a qualified fighter.
Drake was on track to gain $1.4 million if Jake would’ve won, but the rapper ended up dropping his wager totally. However, this is not going to be the ultimate time Tommy and Jake battle it out in the ring. The duo have a rematch clause of their contract, in the match that Tommy gained.
Even after the battle, Jake was already interested by the re-match, or even made a promise to Drake about profitable next time.
"$400,000 is nothing to him, he's won a lot more betting on me before so he's probably about even now," Jake said. "Sorry Drake, I'm gonna get that W in the rematch."
This isn’t the primary time Drake has lost big because of playing. In December, he was out $1 million after betting that Argentina would win the World Cup in the first ninety mins. Though Argentina did beat France, they did so in half-time, making Drake’s prediction wrong and inflicting him to lose the wager.
The month prior, Drake had a $2 million loss after wagering that UFC celebrity Israel Adesanya would win in his tournament towards Alex Pereira, which didn’t happen.
However, the “Passion Fruit” singer isn’t at all times mistaken with regards to betting. Drake has made some important earnings because of his bets previously.
In July, Drake put down $2.2 million to bet that Molly McCann would beat Hannah Goldy and that Paddy Pimblett would win in opposition to Jordan Leavitt, either one of which were proper. The rapper walked away with $3.7 million.
After his winnings, Drake promised to buy the UFC fighters Rolex watches, although it’s unconfirmed if he went via with it.
Drake may have been hoping to put a dent in his prison charges with his newest gamble. Earlier this month, it was reported that Drake and 21 Savage settled a lawsuit filed by Vogue’s publisher Conde Nast. The duo had to pay an undisclosed settlement after the use of a pretend Vogue cover to advertise their album Her Loss remaining fall, despite now not having the suitable permissions to do so.
