Rapper Drake lost $850,000 on Logan Paul's fight with Dillon Danis - despite backing the right man to win. Paul took on Danis over six rounds last night alongside KSI's defeat by Tommy Fury in Manchester. Paul dominated the first five rounds before Danis was disqualified in the final session for attempting to choke out his rival. Paul was declared the winner - but not by knock out as Drake had predicted. The rapper, who is seen as something of a curse given his poor gambling record, had staked $850,000 (£700,000) on Paul to win by stoppage and would have collected $1.3million (£1m) had he been successful.

He lost on the right man. We have experienced losses but not as bad as this...this is just terrible.
What do the gambling folks have to say about this?
I think "Rapper Drake" probably has more than enough money if he is gambling with such amounts. Terrible? Not really. Entertaining? Kind of. Considering the kind of wealth we are looking at, here, I am not all too inclined to feel sad for Mr. Rich Rapper guy. He knows, just like anyone else that gambling brings with it certain risks. I doubt there exists an adult living in the modern world who does not understand the risks and negatives of gambling.
At the end of the day, he will go home with his horde of money sitting in the bank or in investments still almost just as enormous as the day before...
