The Drake Curse has long been recognized in the UFC and he placed a huge gamble on the UFC 314 Main Event on Saturday.
This Saturday in Miami, UFC 314 is going down with a featherweight title fight between Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes.
The Co-Main event is also a long-awaited five-round lightweight fight between Michael Chandler and Paddy Pimblett, in which the effort was raised when Conor McGregor declared his interest in the winner.
The UFC 314 card is generally considered the strongest card this year this year, because it also contains a huge fight between promotional newcomer Patricio Pitbull vs Yair Rodriguez.

Drake places huge $ 545,000 bet on Volkanovski to win
There are many 'curses' in the world of MMA, from getting a hairstyle on UFC embedded to Drake bet on you to win the fight.
There is a long history of Drake that bet on a UFC hunter to win and then they will lose their fight. An opportunity when the 'Curse' was invalidated was when Israel Adesanya beat Jared Cannonier and won Drake $ 1 million.
And because this is the biggest event of the year so far, the notorious rapper has put his money where his mouth is again and $ 545,000 has bet on 'The Great' Volkanovski to reclaim his 145 pound title, which is his first UFC bet of the year.
With the history of the Canadian rapper about doing his choices wrong, his fans are now worried about Volkanovski, anticipating that he can now suffer his third UFC loss in a row.
“Diego now guaranteed,” a fan noticed.
“Drake ruined inheritances with these bets,” said another fan.
“People, we had a good run,” a third fan responded.
Drake calls his favorite MMA hunter of all time
Although it may seem like Drake is just gambling on the fighting without prior knowledge, he has been a fan of the sport for a while.
Last year the superstar revealed that his favorite hunter of all time is Nate Diaz because of how 'thorough' Diaz is like a hunter.
The UFC legend has undoubtedly earned Drake a lot of money over the years, which may have been added that he is his favorite hunter.
