Drake’s reputation for high-stakes betting took another hit after his latest gamble didn’t go as planned. On Friday (November 15), the global superstar revealed on Instagram that he had placed a massive $355,000 bet on Mike Tyson to defeat Jake Paul in their highly anticipated boxing match.
Drizzy shared the news with his fans, writing, “I’m late but I’m here money on the liiiiiiiiine for today and tmrw,” alongside a screenshot of his wager. With Paul entering the fight as the favorite, Drake stood to collect over $1 million if his prediction came true.
Unfortunately for the rapper, the night didn’t end in his favor. Jake Paul secured a unanimous decision victory after eight rounds, leaving Drake with a hefty loss. So far, he has remained silent about the bet’s outcome.
Drake’s penchant for headline-making bets is nothing new, but this loss adds to the growing list of risks that haven’t paid off for the “God’s Plan” hitmaker. Fans are now waiting to see what high-stakes gamble he takes on next.
