Unfortunately for the Canadian rapper, Usyk got the better of “The Gypsy King” to secure a split decision win after 12 rounds of thrilling action inside the ring. The Ukrainian then became the world’s undisputed heavyweight champion. That said, Drake had just lost over half a million dollars on that fight.

The curse is officially back
The Fury fight was Drake’s third consecutive loss in his high-stakes sports betting. Prior to this, Drake lost $615K after backing Francis Ngannou to beat Anthony Joshua. Earlier this year, the rapper also blew $700K after betting on Sean Strickland to defeat Dricus du Plessis at UFC 297.
As expected, fans concluded that the so-called “Drake Curse” is officially back. With a wide array of blockbuster UFC events and boxing matches lined up, it would be no surprise if Drake returns to make another insane bet.
