Canadian rapper Drake is celebrating a massive win after placing a bet on boxer Gervonta Davis to defeat Ryan Garcia in their recent fight. Drake’s bet reportedly netted him a staggering $1.38 million in winnings.
The fight between Davis and Garcia was highly anticipated, with both fighters boasting impressive records. However, Drake had a clear favorite, and it seems his instincts were spot-on. Davis ultimately emerged victorious in the bout, knocking out Garcia in the seventh round.
It’s not the first time that Drake has made headlines for his gambling exploits. The rapper has a reputation for enjoying a flutter, and he’s no stranger to big wins. In 2019, he won $200,000 by correctly predicting the winners of NFL games during the playoffs.

Of course, not everyone is a fan of gambling, and some have criticized Drake for his enthusiasm for betting. However, the rapper has defended his actions, arguing that it’s simply a form of entertainment.
“I’m a confident guy, and I take risks,” Drake said in a recent interview. “But I always do it within my means, and I always make sure it’s something that I can afford to lose. At the end of the day, it’s just a bit of fun.”
Regardless of what anyone thinks of his gambling habits, there’s no denying that Drake has a knack for picking winners. Perhaps he should consider a career in sports betting.
