Tai Tuivasa is known for drinking beers out of a shoe but now he wants to do it out of Derrick Lewis’ cup.<\/p>\n

Tuivasa is set for the toughest test of his career as he will face Lewis in the co-main event <\/a>of UFC 271. It’s a very intriguing matchup between two knockout artists and fan-favorites and should Tuivasa get his hand raised, he says he wants to drink a beer out of Lewis’ cup instead of a shoe. Lewis, of course, infamously threw his cup to a fan after his KO win over Chris Daukaus in December.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, he can throw it to me when I win and I\u2019ll do a cuppy out of his ball guard then. I\u2019m keen,” Tuivasa said at media day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Lewis then had his media day after Tuivasa’s where it was brought to his attention and ‘The Black Beast’ didn’t seem too thrilled about the idea. He also doesn’t think it is sanitary for Tai Tuivasa to do that, especially with how his balls get after fights.<\/p>\n

“That guy is nasty, man. I can\u2019t do that. I don\u2019t know,” Lewis said of Tuivasa. “USADA needs to be knocking at his door all the time, he\u2019s gotta be taking something to help his immune system. That is just nasty… Man, what the hell? Nobody. I wouldn\u2019t like to drink out of nobody\u2019s cup. We\u2019re all fighters so I\u2019m pretty sure everybody\u2019s got musty nuts. It\u2019s all at the same level. I\u2019m not watching all these guy\u2019s diets. I\u2019m clean, so I\u2019m probably the cleanest fighter they could drink it from, really. It\u2019ll be warm, you remember. [Like a] latte.”<\/p>\n

With Lewis likely not giving Tuivasa his cup after the fight, should the Aussie win it seems like he’ll have to settle for a shoe.<\/p>\n
