Drake could be the one to cough up the money to fund the boxing match between Soulja Boy and DDG.
The two rappers have recently been feuding, mainly over DDG’s alleged violence towards his ex-girlfriend Halle Bailey which has snowballed into a challenge to take their issues into the ring.
In a livestream with both Soulja Boy and DDG, Adin Ross proposed that Drake be the financial backer of the fight.
The controversial Kick streamer said: “Guys, actually knowing Drake, Drake would actually probably pay to make it happen. Dude, I’m not even joking. … Let me cook. No, I’m not gonna call Drake about that on stream. That’s putting him on the spot. I’m not gonna do that.”
Drake has yet to comment about whether he would be interested in anything to do with the proposed bout.

Issues between DDG and Soulja Boy began when the “Crank That” rapper called out the YouTube star for allegedly putting his hands on ex-girlfriend, Halle Bailey.
Soulja Boy said: “You know how to fight, right? You a boxer, right? Let’s get in the fucking ring bitch ass n-gga. I’ll beat your bitch ass. Putting your hands on the Little Mermaid, n-gga… Fuck you and your whole family.”
DDG then hit back by saying: “Soulja Boy on another heroin rant. We gotta get that man clean. That heroin is fucking him up. Soulja Boy you can’t fight, so stop tryna act like you wanna fight me, n-gga. You just talking sh*t. You was supposed to fight Chris Brown 5 years ago, n-gga still ain’t do it.”
DDG has had one boxing bout, in 2021, against TikTok personality Nate Wyatt.

DDG won the five round bout by a unanimous decision.
He was also due to fight PnB Rock a year later but the now deceased rapper pulled out of the bout shortly before it was scheduled to take place.
DDG also proposed a fight against fellow rapper Toosii after the two fell out over a woman however the event failed to materialize.
Other rappers to have jumped on the celebrity boxing trend include Blueface, Benzino and KSI.
