Canadian rapper, Audrey Drake Graham, has won a $2.7 million bet after Israel Adesanya knocked out Alex Pereira at UFC 287 to reclaim the middleweight title.
Adesanya, won back the 185lb title just five months after he lost it to his rival, Pereira, who has previously beaten him twice in kickboxing.
Drake lost $1.6 million after backing Adesanya to win in that fight, but he made amends for the rapper in his rematch with Pereira. He placed a $500,000 bet on Adesanya to win which returned $885,000 and a $400,000 bet for him to win by knockout, which returned a massive $1.8 million.
When Adesanya was asked about Drake’s bet after his fight, he made a shout out to those who made a bet on him.
“Shoutout to everyone that bet on me but you have to realise that when I step into the octagon, I put my life on the line. That’s the biggest parlay you can ever do. I’m a betting man too, so shoutout to Stake (a crypto betting site), we are about to make another deal and get more money”, he stated.
