Drake has just released a FaceTime call with Israel Adesanya revealing he has “a light million” on Adesanya’s upcoming UFC 276 fight against Jared Cannonier.

Part of one the most stacked main cards this year for the UFC — including the Alexander Volkanovski Vs. Max Holloway three-peat, Sean Strickland Vs. Alex Pereira, and Pedro Munhoz Vs. SeanO’Malley fights — Drake commented on Adesanya, “One of the most inspiring guys to me… the death note author himself and my partner with @stake @stylebender BIG FIGHT TMRW… got a million on it.”

This is currently Drake’s biggest bet placed on a UFC match. While he has started what fans are calling the “Drake Curse,” as both his $275,000 USD bet on Jorge Masvidal and $550,000 USD bet on Justin Gaethje didn’t go as planned, many are calling for this $1 million USD as a safe bet as Adesanya is a -380 favorite with Cannonier at +310.
