Tai Tuivasa snapped a three-fight losing streak and won for the first time in more than two years Saturday when he knocked out Stefan Struve in the first round of their heavyweight bout.
Right after the finish, Tuivasa jumped out of the cage looking to do you know what: a shoey.
SOMEONE GET THIS MAN A BEER!

Unfortunately for Tuivasa, no beer allowed inside the Flash Forum, but that didn’t stop “Bam Bam” going straight to the fridge backstage for his trademark celebration.

I’ll never understand the shoey, but it makes Tuivasa a happy man, and that’s good enough for me.
