I've always thought he has one of the most beautiful bodies in mma. A body like that shouldn't be inked. It's perfect the way it is.

Men and their stupid bets!

I agree!


Don't do it, Rich!

Forrest's Reaction :

"I don't believe it, we didn't even shake hands on it. I definitely would not be getting it if I lost. I'd be like, 'Yeah, yeah, of course,' but then if I lost, you would have to knock me out to get me in that chair."

"Once Randy [Couture] got a tattoo, I wanted Stephan [Bonnar] to get one next. I'm trying to be the last boring guy left with no tattoos by getting everybody else to get one."

"If he really gets it, I'll pay for his tattoo removal. I did get the win [bonus] money. I got a couple extra bucks so I guess I can take care of it if he wants to get rid of it."

Not yet. Pretty sure he's waiting until it all gets filled in & the swelling goes down.

Why didn't he tell Rich he was joking! And does he seriously think paying for a tatoo removal will "undo" it and make it like it never was?

I've always liked Forrest, but after this....

Maybe Rich took a few too many kicks to the head & isn't thinking clearly:

I think he needs another kick!

Forrest just better stay away from Matt!

it's possible that Rich is going through a mid-life crtisis and wanted to do something rebellious.
Wasn't Forrest the one who came up with this idea?

He's a year younger than Matt and not even forty yet. But, you could be right, and he's just getting a head start.
