Drake is betting on The Problem Child to lose the next bout between Jake Paul and Nate Diaz, and judging by the size of the bet, the rapper is feeling confident.
The rapper, who is well-known for his high-stakes wagers on sporting events, released a bet slip from one of his recent wagers on his Instagram story, showing that he had staked $250k for a $1 million win on Diaz defeating Paul.
“Jake is a dog, but I can never bet against a Diaz brother; that’s just how I was raised,” he captioned the story. The Canadian was wrong in his prediction that Jake Paul would defeat Tommy in February. Drake lost a bet of $400k, but it wasn’t the first time Drake lost a bet in combat sports.
Paul jokingly blamed Drake for his defeat in the ring after that battle while apologizing for losing Drake a significant chunk of money. “F***, this is Drake’s fault. $400k is nothing to him. He’s won a lot more money betting on me before, so he’s probably about even now.”
But this time Drake is not taking any chances and didn’t want to go against a Diaz brother. It will be interesting to see how much money the rapper earns or loses from this bet.
Nate Diaz plans to return to UFC after the Jake Paul fight
Diaz had been eagerly awaiting his boxing debut since his retirement from the UFC last year. Now the fighter is free and is ready to do what he wants to do. However, the UFC legend has revealed that he plans to do MMA and boxing alternately.
Nate Diaz said: “Yeah, I’m going to do MMA. 100%, I’ll box and do MMA, again a bunch of times. “I appreciate the UFC more now than when I was in it, you know what I’m saying? I can see different things that I wouldn’t even look at when I was in there.”
Diaz mentioned that he is now looking at the UFC from a different perspective and has gained a lot of appreciation for the promotion since he left it. UFC fans are also expecting Nate Diaz to come back and possibly fight Conor McGregor in the much-awaited trilogy fight.
