Ace Nigerian Afrobeats singer, David Adeleke aka Davido has mocked Canadian rapper, Drake, after he lost a £478,000 bet on Francis Ngannou defeating Anthony Joshua in a heavyweight boxing bout on Friday.
Drake had taken to his Instagram page to share a slip of the bet he placed on the bout, revealing that he was betting £478,000 on Ngannou to beat Joshua outrightly.
However, he lost the bet as Joshua knocked out Ngannou and won the bout as early as the second round.
The knockout blow, a powerful right hand, left the Cameronian out cold, as he went down on the canvas for more than a minute needing oxygen
