Rapper Drake recently lost a bet of £478,000 on Francis Ngannou beating Anthony Joshua in a heavyweight boxing match.

Drake was hoping to win over £1 million, but Joshua defeated Ngannou in just two rounds.

Joshua knocked out Ngannou in a brutal manner, causing the former UFC champion to need medical attention in the ring before he could stand up.

This loss adds to Drake’s streak of bad luck in combat sports.

Earlier this year, Drake lost over £500,000 when he bet on Sean Strickland to win against Dricus Du Plessis in a UFC fight.

He also lost £430,000 when Israel Adesanya was unexpectedly defeated by Strickland, and previously bet £700,000 on Logan Paul to beat Dillon Danis in a boxing match.
