Bobby Green scalp tattoo: Everything you need to know

We take a look at Bobby Green and the significance of his famous scalp tattoo

Bobby Green famously showed up at the UFC 199 media week dawning a fresh ink on his scalp. Green was widely regarded as the best-dressed fighter building up to the fight week.

Speaking to Ariel Helwani he said that he wanted to reinvent himself with this fight and show an improved version of himself.

Speaking about his tattoo he said, “It’s a dragon. For every one of my children, I need to have an animal theme that goes with them and ties it all together. I also hangout with a lot of Asian friends and they call me the Last Dragon.”

Green takes on Islam Makhachev at UFC 49 Vegas this weekend.

Michael Bisping gives a bold prediction ahead of this weekend’s lightweight bout between Bobby Green and Islam Makhachev

This weekend’s UFC 49 Vegas card will feature a lightweight showdown between crowd favorite Bobby Green and Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov prodigy Islam Makhachev. Green heroically saved the card from collapsing when Beneil Dariush pulled out of the scheduled main event against Makhachev due to injury.

Bisping made an intrepid claim stating that although it might not make sense to many, he believes that Green is very much capable of scoring one of the biggest upsets in modern-day MMA.

He said, “Call me crazy, but I think there’s a good chance that Bobby Green might pull this off.”
