Even with the brutality in the combat sport, betting has added excitement for fans. Given the fact the fans get indirectly engaged in the fight by placing bets on fighters, and winning bets means extra money for the fans. On a similar note, Canadian rapper Drake has had a love-hate relationship with betting. We’ve witnessed multiple occasions where he’s lost thousands and even million on bets. Now, once more, following a half-million-dollar loss on a bet for Israel Adesanya, Drake has placed a bet on Logan Paul to secure a KO victory over Dillon Danis.

The “Drake Curse” is a term that is very popular on the internet within sports fandom. It stems from the idea that when Drake supports athletes or teams, they tend to face bad luck or unfavorable outcomes. This belief aligns with superstitions held by both players and fans, leading to the widespread notoriety of the “Drake Curse.”
And now, following Drake’s $800,000 bet on Paul to win over Danis via KO, fans on the internet are once again mentioning the infamous “Drake curse.” If Paul does manage to secure a KO victory, Drake stands to earn a significant $1.3 million. On the other hand, Danis is visibly upset that Drake only wagered $800,000 on his potential defeat, as seen in the post below.
Recently, Canadian rapper made a hefty $500,000 bet on Adesanya to score a knockout victory over Strickland in the main event of UFC 293. Unfortunately, Adesanya lost the match, missing the chance to pocket a whopping $920,000 – the amount he would have won had he emerged victorious.

Indeed, if Drake’s bet on Paul turns out successful, he would not only recover his losses from UFC 293 but also stand to make a substantial profit. On the flip side, if Logan Paul loses, against a Jiu-jitsu champion Danis in a boxing match, the “Drake curse” phenomenon would undoubtedly gain even more attention.
