Jake Paul has called for rapper Drake to take him on holiday if he defeats Tommy Fury after the rapped staked $400,000 on the fight.

YouTube star Paul is in Saudi Arabia as he goes through the final stages of preparations to settle his bitter feud with long-term foe Fury. It is a big moment for Paul's boxing career having won his first six outings in the ring, but is desperate to prove his worth against a boxer with a natural background in the sport.

There have been several high-profile bets associated with the fight including Paul himself who drafted a contract for a winner-takes-all bet with Fury, but his rival has allegedly failed to agree. However one bet that has materialised is Canadian hip-hop artist Drake's who has wagered $400,000 on Paul winning by KO.

The 'Problem Child' released a video reacting to the bet which Drake posted on his social media, and seemed pleasantly surprised by the high-profile star's backing. He said: "Wow, by KO knock knock who is there it is me? Drizzy, I have got you bro easy. But after that we need to go on vacation on you for all that money you win. You are paying Drake, let's go."

Drake has had mixed fortunes with betting on combat sports having won and lost some mega-money wagers while backing fighters in the UFC. Overall the Canadian has lost around $2.6 million while gambling on the events, with his biggest win coming after backing Israel Adesanya to defend his title against Jarod Cannonier with a $1m bet.

And his luck continued after he placed another successful wager on British pair Molly McCann and Paddy Pimblett to win at UFC London last year, which ended claims that the hip-hop star was cursing fighters. Drake will take confidence from Paul's prediction however, with the 'Problem Child' insisting he is the safe bet to stop the fight tonight.

He shouted in a final message to his rival: "Tommy, I hope you have enjoyed these last few moments of your career. This is it you are going to be retired from. boxing, disowned from your family and go back to your mother's maiden name after this. Your brother [Tyson Fury] isn't in the ring with you, your Dad, Molly-Mae [Hague] or even Bambi [his daughter].

"I am coming to take your f***ing head off, I will decapitate you as I am a mean and angry person deep down. I am going to take it all out on your f***ing face, there is nothing you can do to f***ing beat me. I have worked harder every single day, I have a better team and a better support system. Together, we are going to collectively f*** you up, Tommy, you have four rounds and this is it for you."
