Drake knows how to bet and spend his money as well, and it just keeps getting better for him. He recently won a $3.7 million bet and is going to gift Rolex watches to the UFC Fighters who helped him win the bet as a “Thank You.”

Drizzy will give Rolex watches to athletes Molly McCann and Paddy Pimblett after they won their respective contests, which earned him a stunning $3.7 million in winning bets.

The Toronto rapper had placed a bet on McCann to defeat Hannah Goldy, which she accomplished with a first-round TKO, and on Pimblett to defeat Jordan Leavitt, which he did with a second-round submission.

McCann and Pimblett verified that Drake contacted them during an ESPN post-fight show. “Drake is buying me and Paddy a new Rolex,” McCann revealed on the show. Pimblett added, “We messaged him on Instagram, and he was like, ‘Yeah, you are getting a Rolex.'”

Drake has been sharing many of his bets on social media after collaborating with the sports betting startup Stake. He placed $470,000 on the Rams to win the Super Bowl in February, and another $390,000 on Odell Beckham Jr. to have 62.5 receiving yards in the game.

Check out Drake’s recent UFC bet, as well as McCann and Pimblett’s reactions to receiving Rolex watches, below.
