Drake Loses $400,000 On Jake Paul-Tommy Furry Fight

After a fight that lasted eight rounds, Jake Paul had his first boxing career loss to Tommy Fury, half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. But Paul wasn’t the only celebrity who had a loss last night.

Ahead of the highly anticipated fight in Saudi Arabia on Sunday, the betting platform Stake took to Instagram to share that their brand partner, Drake, has bet $400,000 that Paul would knockout Fury. Had Paul won the fight, the rap star would have pocketed a whopping $1.4 million.

After his victory over the YouTuber-turned-boxer, Fury is now on a winning streak of 9-0. But the duo is likely to fight again, as per Paul’s rematch clause in the event that Fury won.

“If he wants a rematch, bring it on,” Fury said, accepting the social media star’s demands.

When asked about Drake’s gambling loss, Paul responded that “$400,000 is nothing to him, he’s won a lot more betting on me before so he’s probably about even now.”

Apologizing to the Grammy-winning rapper, Paul claimed that he will “get that W in the rematch.”

Drake’s high-profile gambling losses have fueled the viral belief that any athlete who comes into contact with the rapper will lose their following match—a phenomenon dubbed the Drake Curse. According to CBS Sports, Drake lost nearly $2.3 million on UFC fighters Israel Adesanya and Jorge Masvidal last year alone.
