<p>Canadian rapper Drake has put a huge bet on Francis Ngannou to cause an upset against Anthony Joshua this evening.</p>

<p>Joshua and Ngannou fight live on <a href="https://www.dazn.com/en-GB/sport/Sport:2x2oqzx60orpoeugkd754ga17" target="_blank">DAZN PPV,</a> in Saudi Arabia, with one eye on a potential world title fight in the future.</p>

<p>Former UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou has just one professional boxing fight under his belt, shocking the world when knocking world champion Tyson Fury to the canvas in an eventual loss by the judges' scorecards.</p>

<p>Joshua, meanwhile, is climbing back up the heavyweight ranks, winning all three bouts in 2023 after back-to-back defeats to Oleksandr Usyk.</p>

<p>"Betting on a scary man," Drake wrote on his Instagram account alongside a screenshot of his bet - a $615,000 stake on Ngannou to beat Joshua.</p>

<p>If Drake is proven right this evening, he will pocket just under $2,000,000 in winnings - not a bad payday!</p>
