Derrick Lewis is taking on heavyweight champ Daniel Cormier at UFC 230 this weekend, with DC’s title on the line. But there is more at stake than the title.
The feud between the two started with Popeyes Chicken. Lewis wasn’t happy with DC’s disrespect towards the fast-food franchise.

Popeyes noticed the love and was very appreciative. They offered Lewis a lifetime of free Popeyes Chicken.
Lmao, Popeyes in Houston just called and gave @Thebeast_ufc free Popeyes for life and Derrick will be on the menu board, in addition to what corporate is doing. Let’s go d! #popeyes

In addition to Lewis’ lifetime offer, the Houston Popeyes will give away meals for two hours on Sunday.

Good luck Lewis and good luck to the Houston Popeyes after he wins.
