Drake lost a staggering $275k after betting on Jorge Masvidal to beat Colby Covington

Canadian rapper Drake lost a staggering sum of money on Saturday night night after Colby Covington beat Jorge Masvidal by unanimous decision at UFC 272.

Covington and Masvidal used to be friends however, they recently became rivals and saw each other face off in the UFC Octagon last night.

Covington was the bookie’s favourite to win last night but despite this, Drake still thought it would be wise to put a quarter of a million dollars on Masvidal.

It was all in Covington’s favour to win last night, he was the younger fighter and had won his last two fights coming into this one.

However as the result showed, Masvidal lost the fight and the multi-platinum selling artist also lost $275,000.

The main event at UFC 272 saw Covington control most of the match and he managed to take down his opponent several times and even had him pinned down on the mat for long periods at a time.
