Drake loses $275,000 on Jorge Masvidal bet at UFC 272

 

 

Drake lost a massive $275,000 bet on Jorge Masvidal beating Colby Covington at UFC 272.

 

The odds for Drake’s bet were unknown, although Covington started as a 2/7 favorite and Masvidal as a 5/2 underdog.

 

If Masvidal had pulled off the upset against his hated rival, Drake would have won close to $1 million on his original bet.

 

In the footage, the award-winning rapper can be seen betting a lot of money on Masvidal while watching UFC 272 on his laptop.

But it wasn’t to be, as Covington defeated his former teammate with scores of 49-46, 50-44, and 50-45 in five rounds, relying on his superior wrestling to win.

 

Masvidal said that it was one of his worst performances, and that the personal insults he exchanged with Covington before to the fight made the defeat difficult to accept.

At the post-fight press conference, Covington, who is set to face Masvidal’s partner Dustin Poirier next, taunted Drake for losing the six-figure wager.
