by - soumya ranjan

It is well known that Drake is a frequent follower of the UFC and watches most of the pay-per-view events. The rapper also came on to the stage at UFC 229 along with Conor McGregor to support the Irish against Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Drake has been very open about his fighter bets over the years. However, it has been observed that when Drake bets money on a fighter, he or she usually loses the fight. This happened so many times that it started the stigma about "Drake's curse," which was faced by many fighters.

Colby Covington vs. Jorge Masvidal Drake bet against Colby Covington in this fight but lost $275,000 as Masvidal failed to win the fight.

Leon Edwards vs. Kamaru Usman At UFC 278, Edwards stunned the world by defeating Kamaru Usman, on whom Drake wagered $200,000.

Alex Pereira vs. Israel Adesanya Another major upset that includes the "Drake Curse" took place at UFC 280 when Alex Pereira KOed Israel Adesanya. The rapper lost a whopping $2 million.

However, the Drake curse has recently been lifted by Liverpool-based fighters Paddy Pimblett and Molly McCann.Darke appreciated that you also gifted them Rolex watches in return.
