Drake is betting big against Colby Covington again.

Before his Covington’s fight against Jorge Masvidal, Drake bet $275k on Masvidal beating Covington.

Unfortunately for Drake, Covington went on to win the fight and mocked the superstar rapper during his post-fight press conference.

“Let’s talk about all the money that Drake lost tonight, he needs to go back to selling those sh–y albums to get back the money.”

Ahead of Saturday night’s UFC 296 card, Drake revealed that he put up a $250 bet to win $1.2 million on Leon Edwards to knock out Covington.

“Head shot please and thank you @leonedwardsmma,” Drake said in an Instagram post.

Drake’s bet is not good news for Edwards, considering the rapper lost $2 million on bets in 2022. Drake also recently lost $500k betting on Israel Adesanya vs Sean Strickland.
