Pavlik after Martinez



Margarito After Mosley



Cotto after Margarito

Add Pavlik to that list.

Mosley whooped Margarito and then got the tattoo so no.

And Berto doesn't have any visible tats, look at his fight with Zaveck.

That mofo covered himself in tats. Not only that, but they're fucking hideos IMO.

[Seleção No. 13]

Berto's was a temporary / henna tat. Does that mean he'll get better? Nah, he'll just stay mediocre.

Trying to re-affirm their masculinity.

Corrected.

and I put Mosley as a victim of father time.

[Heeb]

Berto's was fake and Mosley was coming off a win.

I think fighters get tattoos after they lose in an attempt to redefine themselves. One way to change who you are is change the way you look.
