Drake has concerned Francis Ngannou fans by placing a huge bet on him to beat Anthony Joshua.

The heavyweights are set to clash at ‘Knockout Chaos’ on Friday night in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Drake will no doubt be a keen observer when the fight takes place.

The superstar recording artist is known to be a big combat sports fan.

And he regularly places massive bets on sporting events including mega fights.

Now, Drake has staked $615,000 (£477,000) on Ngannou to beat Joshua.

If the bet wins, it will pay out $1.9million (£1.5million).

However, many Ngannou fans are not happy to hear this.

Drake’s track record for sports betting is not great to say the least.

He has even been accused of ‘cursing’ athletes and teams after being pictured with them.

One fan reacted to his bet on Ngannou by saying: “Damn. That means Ngannou is gonna lose.”

While a second commented: “Omg the Drake cruse.”

A third boxing fan added: “Bet on AJ everyone.”

And another wrote: “Can this dude stop betting on the same people I bet on. Bro is messing up my picks with that Drake betting curse lol.”
