Ioka’s tattoo causes issues with JBC

[Zaroku]

Imagine Gervtona Davis was a Japanese fighter lol...

I was referencing Higa in my post too I might as well say since I wasn't being specific.

He’d have zero sponsors, and would probably be in and out of trouble.

He’d have to get them laser removed or something.

A lotta ladies of the night, that want a sponsor to back their business will take the yakuza guys money-𝚂𝚝𝚊𝚛𝚝 her own club and have a silent partner for life!

Haha damn I wasn't even thinking of his tattoos but yeah he has like 2 partial sleeves and a chest/neck piece. I was more referring to his trouble making weight.

It's 2021. Who the **** cares about tattoos?

Me and my brother were talking to each other
About what makes a man a man
Was it brain or brawn, or the month you were born
We just couldn't understand
Our old man didn't like our appearance
He said that only women wear long hair
So me and my brother borrowed money from Mother
We knew what we had to do
We went downstairs, past the barber and gymnasium
And got our arms tattooed
Welcome to my life, tattoo
I'm a man now, thanks to you
I expect I'll regret you
But the skin graft man won't get you
You'll be there when I die
Tattoo
My dad beat me because mine said "Mother"
But my mother naturally liked it and beat my brother
Cause his tattoo was of a lady in the nude
And my mother thought that was extremely rude
Welcome to my life, tattoo
We've a long time together, me and you
Now I'm older, I'm tattooed all over
My wife is tattooed too
A rooty-toot-toot, rooty-tooty-toot-toot
Rooty-toot-toot tattoo too
To you

This reminded me of the classic SNL skit of the Japanese Game Show with Chris Farley & Mike Myers. Incidentally, Daigo Higa was fighting on the undercard of Ioka vs. Tanaka and he was banned by the JBC for like two years, simply for missing weight

Great find. Thought about that the other day. So funny

Jorge Linares has fought out of Japan his whole career (Teiken) so is this rule just for Japanese born japanese raced fighters?

That is bad, almost as bad as North Americans not wanting to use a few words.

First they will take your words, then your thoughts.

Thanks Big Z... of course it's The Who's Pete Townshend who wrote the song.
