Drake stands to win $1m if Jake Paul wins his grudge match against Tommy Fury via stoppage when the pair clash in Saudi Arabia.
The Canadian rapper has form for placing huge wagers on sporting events and the gripping Paul/Fury rivalry has caught the attention of Drake, with the global star backing his fellow North American.
The popular YouTuber begins his fight against Fury as a narrow favourite with most bookmakers despite not possessing a boxing background.
Fury has more experience against boxers, but Paul’s recent form, which includes wins over former UFC stars such as Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva, has made people take notice.
Their fight in the Middle East is their third scheduled meeting following two previous withdrawals by Fury. It doesn’t look like there’ll be any last-minute drama before the first bell and with the eyes of the world watching, the winner will be ready to push on.
Drake will be hoping that man is Jake Paul.
