    just been on the other groves thread about when is he fighting next and his tattoos are a subject......

    does anyone know any of the reasons behind george's tattoo's???

    does he himself even know???

    has anyone seen a madder set of tattoos???

    they are not your normal set of tats, ok give him some credit for not copying say some tribal carryon or whatever but they are trippy as **** and i for one would love to know what the **** is the game with them???

    maybe this has been done before but i never seen it so sorry in advance if so....

    No idea matey, might be unfinished, but not so sure. A red rectangle isn't exactly the longest of tattoos to sit for haha.

    Looking again, I bet it is unfinished, and I think it will end up as a royal flush of cards or something.

    They're kinda bad. Not exactly Kessler is he? :lol:

    The gingerbread man one looks good if it was something you'd drawn on a bit of paper. As a tattoo though...

    I think whoever did these did a pretty good job. Maybe its the fair skin but they're pretty striking and well executed. It's just the ideas that are questionable. Whats the rectangle all about?

    Kelly Pavliks are probably the worst tattoos I have ever seen. Ever.

    they are well drawn defo....

    the red one on his arm mate is what looks to me like either a set square or a tetris block you can see its not a rectangle it carrys on at a 90 degree angle.

    jus had another look further towards his wrist it looks like it joins up with another part of it!
