Canadian rapper Drake lost $565,000 after betting on Tyson Fury to defeat Oleksandr Usyk, marking another significant gambling setback for him.
Before the fight, Drake had posted on Instagram that he wagered $565,000 on Fury, hoping to win just over $1 million.
However, Usyk claimed victory over Fury by split decision in Saudi Arabia, becoming the first undisputed heavyweight boxing champion in 24 years.

This loss adds to Drake’s previous gambling misfortunes, including a six-figure sum on Anthony Joshua’s knockout against Francis Ngannou and $700,000 on Dricus Du Plessis’ win over Sean Strickland at UFC 297.
