The internet is no stranger to wild theories, and one of the most infamous is the so-called "Drake curse." According to this popular belief, whenever Canadian rapper Drake publicly supports or places a bet on an athlete or team, they are doomed to lose. The theory has taken the sports world by storm, with fans keeping a close eye on Drake’s betting activities and linking his involvement to numerous unexpected losses.

Recently, the "Drake curse" buzz intensified when the rapper placed a hefty $450,000 bet on UFC star Israel Adesanya for UFC 305, where Adesanya was set to fight Dricus Du Plessis. With Drake backing Adesanya, fans on social media were quick to jump to conclusions, declaring that DDP’s victory was practically guaranteed thanks to the supposed curse.

This isn’t the first time fans have latched onto this idea. Drake has become quite active in the world of sports betting, wagering on everything from the NFL to soccer and cricket. While he’s had some notable wins, the losses have added fuel to the fire that is the "Drake curse." Whenever he backs a team or athlete, the internet lights up with speculation that their defeat is imminent.
