The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is preparing for its 305th event, featuring a highly awaited fight between Israel Adesanya and Dricus du Plessis.
This middleweight title match will take place on August 18, 2024, at the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia.
As the date nears, discussions and predictions are buzzing, showing the excitement around this fight.
Both Adesanya and du Plessis are recognized as top African UFC fighters in the last ten years, making this a fierce and competitive matchup.
Drake, known for his big betting habits, has shown his support for Adesanya, who is also his friend and is nicknamed “The Last Stylebender.”
However, Drake’s betting history has not been great, as many of the fighters he supports often end up losing.
A report from USA Today highlights that Drake has faced many losses in his bets across different sports, leading to the idea of a “Drake Curse.”
