Drake loses $615k bet on Joshua-Ngannou bout
Drake, the Canadian rapper, lost a $615,000 bet after Anthony Joshua knocked out Francis Ngannou in their heavyweight showdown in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
In the early hours of Saturday, Joshua floored Ngannou in the second round of the 10-round heavyweight bout.
The former unified and two-time heavyweight champion first sent the Cameroonian stumbling with a right-left hook, and he followed it up with another right hand, which left him unconscious on the canvas.
Richard Gonzales, the referee, signalled the end of the bout as Ngannou lay crumbled on the mat with the bout only a few minutes in.
A few hours before the fight, Drake took to his Instagram page and uploaded a slip of his betting on the bout.
The 37-year-old ‘God’s Plan’ crooner staked $615,000 on Ngannou defeating Joshua at the Kingdom Arena.
According to his betting slip, Drake would have earned $1.9 million from the proceedings had the Cameroonian defeated Joshua.
