With the eyes of the world watching, Drake will be left in suspense after betting a huge £462,396 ($565,000) on who he thinks will win.
The rap star will pocket £789,608 ($1 million) if he correctly predicts the outcome.
And Drake bet on Fury to win tonight’s fight.
The 37-year-old Canadian posted a screenshot of his bet on Instagram for his 146 million followers to see.
Drake may be one of the most successful musicians on the planet – but he has developed an unwanted reputation for losing millions as a gambler.
Hoping not to make the same mistake this time, he decided to support a member of the Fury family after losing £350,000 by incorrectly opting for Jake Paul to defeat Tommy Fury.
Drake also lost £394,000 on a bet on UFC star Israel Adesanya to beat Sean Strickland.
In football, Drake paid a fixed amount to Barcelona to beat Real Madrid, even sponsoring the Catalan giants’ shirt for the game.

But Barça ended up losing 3-1 and it cost Drake £500,000.
And the “Drake curse” continued when he lost £820,000 in the 2022 World Cup final.
In F1 he backed Charles Leclerc to win the Spanish Grand Prix the same year, but he retired and saw Drake lose £186,000.
The curse went beyond betting, as he was photographed with Conor McGregor shortly before losing to Khabib Nurmagomedov.
And with footballers Jadon Sancho and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang before suffering defeats.
Still, Fury may not be worried about getting Drake’s vote of confidence.
Previously, he overcame the bad luck charm by being backed by Drake to beat Deontay Wilder in 2021, which he did.
