Drake Hugs TF Outta Conor McGregor, Raises Ante For Floyd Mayweather Jr. Bout

OVO Sound boss Drake might low-key have his money on Conor McGregor come August 26. The hip-hop superstar has flexed some serious love for the underdog in Floyd Mayweather Jr.‘s upcoming pay-per-view fight.

New footage has surfaced of Drizzy and McGregor having a bro moment yesterday (July 12) in Toronto ahead of a televised press conference.

The Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor press tour made its way to Toronto on Wednesday, and you know the rules by now: If there’s a major sporting event going on in Toronto, Drake is going to be there. This was no different. The rap star made an appearance and even gave McGregor a visit before the festivities kicked off. (USA Today)
