For a minute, Drake seemed to embrace his clone "Izzy" Drake.

But that minute came and went, and Drake was recently heard threatening to slap his replica.

Estranged from the man who gives him his purpose, Izzy Drake has been forced to chase fame in different avenues, one of them being "celebrity" boxing.

Fake Drake was supposed to box Lamar Odom, but the ex-baller decided not to get in the ring.  Izzy Drake claims the real Drake told Odom to ditch the fight, but Odom denies that.

Instead, Fake Drake fought rapper M2thaK.  It wasn't a very good fight, with M2thaK TKOing Izzy Drake.
