Drake's Million-Dollar Gambles: From UFC Triumphs to Rolex Gifts!

Drake, a famous rap sensation, regularly engages in gambling despite his global stardom.

In 2022, Drake won a massive amount of money through a bold bet on two UFC bouts in London.

Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett and Molly McCann were the fighters Drake bet on, putting down $2,296,211.30.

Both fighters won, leading to a substantial payout of $3,723,077 for Drake.

Drake shared his winning betting slip on social media with the caption "A scousers parlay."

Following the win, Molly McCann asked Drake to buy her a Rolex, and he agreed.

Drake fulfilled his promise and gifted Rolexes to both Pimblett and McCann.

The win contradicted the 'Drake Curse,' a phenomenon where athletes he endorsed tended to underperform.

The 'Drake Curse' involved Drake publicly supporting athletes, leading to their subsequent failures.

Despite his success, a responsible gambling message is emphasized at the end of the article.
