Drake has lost another two bets worth $200,000 by backing Kamaru Usman to defeat Leon Edwards having already lost $230,000 on Jose Aldo.
The hip-hop artist has a long history of betting on UFC fights which includes most recently backing British pair Paddy Pimblett and Molly McCann in a double bet which saw him pocket a tidy £3million. UFC 278 was another pay-per-view event which saw Usman lose his title after being knocked out cold by British challenger Edwards in the main event at the Vivint Smart Home Arena last night.
Drake had two separate wagers on the champion to retain his title having backed the Nigerian to win by KO in a bet worth around $149,000 in addition to a separate stake of $49,000 that he would pick up the win in round four. However his curse struck again with Usman defeated by a booming kick from the challenger in the final session.
