Lil Wayne, the American rapper, lost a hefty $500k after betting on Mike Tyson to defeat Jake Paul. But instead of a victory, he watched in disbelief as Jake Paul knocked down Tyson, leaving Wayne’s money up in smoke.
🗣️🗣️”I’ve been a fan of Mike Tyson since I was a kid, and honestly, what I saw in his match with Jake Paul didn’t feel like the real Mike Tyson. The Mike I know—who everyone knows—doesn’t fight like that. Even if he was 85 years old, he wouldn’t have fought the way he did last night. If Tyson had landed a real punch, Jake Paul would’ve been knocked out cold. I’m convinced he just did it for the money. But man, I’m angry because I lost a $500k bet on him winning.” — Lil Wayne
