UFC Adelaide: Watch Daniel Cormier do a ‘Shoey’ in honor of Tai Tuivasa (Video)

I never heard of a “shoey” until Tai Tuivasa came along, because I’m an ignorant American and I only care about what’s in front of me. Namely, strip malls and chain restaurants, staples of any good New Jersey town.

Anyway, the practice involves drinking beer from a nasty shoe, because why settle for athlete’s foot when you can have athlete’s colon? That’s probably why UFC Tonight analyst Daniel Cormier served his in a brand-new pair of kicks.

Wimp.

Tuivasa will get the opportunity to celebrate again if he’s able to get past Junior dos Santos in the UFC Adelaide main event, scheduled for this Sat. night (Dec. 1, 2018) on FOX Sports 1 from inside Adelaide Entertainment Centre in South Australia.

The undefeated Aussie (8-0) is coming off the biggest win of his combat sports career, thanks to a unanimous decision nod over former 265-pound kingpin, Andrei Arlovski, at UFC 225 back in June. “Bam Bam” is just 25 years-old and already holds seven knockouts in eight victories.

Will it be eight this weekend?
