As of my last update, there were reports that the Canadian rapper Drake (Aubrey Graham) placed a significant bet on Israel Adesanya, the UFC middleweight champion, for his fight against Robert Whittaker at UFC 236 in April 2019. According to various sources, Drake reportedly placed a $1 million bet on Adesanya to win the fight. Adesanya did win the fight via knockout in the second round, which would mean that Drake’s bet was successful.
However, please note that such information is not always confirmed by the individuals involved and can sometimes be speculative or anecdotal. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, you would need to check the latest reports or statements from Drake or his representatives.
