Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Drake lost $700,000 after he placed bet on Sean Strickland to defeat Dricus Du Plessis but loses.
Dricus Du Plessis defeats Sean Strickland to become the new UFC Middleweight Champion.
Drake placed a $700,000 on him to lose and lost. Du Plessis entered the main event on the back of a surprise TKO of former champion Robert Whittaker last July, and although the South African failed to replicate that explosive performance, he just did enough to emerge victorious.
After five rounds, the judges’ scorecards read 48-47, 47-48, 48-47 in favour of Du Plessis, though the result could easily have gone the other way.
In the co-main event, Raquel Pennington beat Mayra Bueno Silva via unanimous decision to win the vacant women’s bantamweight title.
