Alex Pereira has warned Drake against putting his money on Israel Adesanya in their upcoming UFC rematch.
Pereira is set to defend his UFC middleweight title against 'The Last Stylebender' on April 9 at UFC 287, having stolen the crown from the Nigerian late last year. 'Poatan' has had the beating of Adesanya so far having already beaten him twice during their kickboxing careers, before earning a final-round stoppage in their octagon meeting in 2022.
Rapper Drake is known for placing huge-money bets on UFC fights, and has already put his money where his mouth is on one occasion backing Adesanya successfully to beat Jarod Cannonier. He has yet to indicate which way he may put his faith this time out, but the Brazilian has already handed the Canadian his advice.
