Dana White is confused about the tattoos

There was a time when the UFC CEO Dana White tried to guess the tattoos of the fighters who were under his banner. The CEO started off by stating that he is not a tattoo guy and he might not know most of them.

In the GQ Sports interview, the host showed White various tattoos ranging from Conor McGregor’s chest tattoo to Dan Elkins’s ‘The Damage’ tattoo to TJ Dilshaw’s Tattoo. Looking at them White has only one thing in his mind and that is he termed every tattoo as a bad idea.
