He is the odds on favourite, and Drake has backed those odds by placing $250,000 on him for a submission victory, while adding another $250,000 on a KO win.
However, given some of his recent betting history, fans are wary about his luck.
One fan said: “I was going to bet Jon Jones until I see this… Drake bad luck.”
A second declared: “Drake betting on Jon jones it’s over with Jon lost 
.”
A third commented: “If Jon Jones loses tonight I’m blaming Drake.”
A fourth remarked: “Drake might have just cursed Jon Jones smh.”
While a fifth added: “Drake bet on Jon Jones looks like Ciryl Gane it is.”
But should Drake subvert fans expectations and actually win, he stands to win a whopping $3million.
