Sam Caplan: I'm just trying to give a different perspective here; it's not neccessarily one that I do or do not believe. But there's the belief that there isn't a level playing field when it comes to race in the United States and that minorities do need certain advantages in order to even the playing field with the majority.

Melvin Costa: I see what you're saying. I read a lot of articles in the press and I'm pretty mindful of what's going on in the world. But speaking solely for myself, I've never seen that.

"I don't feel pain. No fuckin' brain, no pain!" he said then. Over the next six months he reeled off three successive knockout victories. Southern California skinheads in full dress — boots, suspenders, bomber jackets — began showing up at King of the Cage events in droves to cheer on the Aryan warrior, whose swastika tattoo, outspoken white nationalist ideology and growing skinhead fan base presented MMA promoters with a public relations dilemma.

Last Oct. 18, shortly after Costa's comments and pictures of his tattoos were republished widely on MMA fan websites, Gary Shaw, the live events president of the parent company that owns King of the Cage, issued this statement: "I try not to allow anyone to fight in the cage or the ring that has anything inappropriate either on their gear or tattooed permanently on their body. And that means either ethnic, or racial, or anything offensive to the general public. I was unaware of the situation but I'm in the process of handling it now. Hopefully, it will never happen again."

But it did, less than two months later. Costa fought in a King of the Cage event held last Dec. 18. For the first time, though, he lost. Davis, for his part, did not return two E-mails seeking clarification on his league's regulation of fighters with "inappropriate" tattoos.

Judging by online forum discussions, Costa's growing legions of white supremacist fans seemed far less concerned with his swastika or spider web tattoos than a third tattoo, circling his navel, that boasts, "I have a small penis." The common theory is that, as one fan said, "He might be going for a bit of sarcasm, depending on the actual size of his penis, given the false stereotype about us."

Be that as it may, Costa says, "At least God blessed me with a strong jaw and a big head."

Some prison tattoos aren't gained by choice.

jhøshea, Monday, 7 July 2008 13:10 (fifteen years ago) link

well thats everything i stand against in one tattoo. whats that green stuff under the chair?

i like the owl!

sunny successor, Monday, 7 July 2008 16:56 (fifteen years ago) link

The bong smoking dolphin has to be intentionally horrible, right? A friend of mine was recently talking about the trend of people getting intentionally pointless and ridiculous tattoos completely without meaning. I don't really get it but to each their own I guess.

ENBB, Monday, 7 July 2008 17:02 (fifteen years ago) link

dolphins are pretty horrible

sunny successor, Monday, 7 July 2008 17:05 (fifteen years ago) link

i love that the dolphin has it's own tattoo

It's better than if he just had the tat that the dolphin has. The leather la-z-boy is kinda nice, and I have nothing in partic against dolphins, but the whole smokin a bong thing just turns it into a bad Dave Matthews Band Fan Tat.

libcrypt, Monday, 7 July 2008 17:47 (fifteen years ago) link

It has to be a collection of bad tattoo ideas - tribal armband, dolphin, bong etc.

ENBB, Monday, 7 July 2008 17:48 (fifteen years ago) link

Yeah, but bad = good in a DMB irony-powered way. I.e., I'm just a dumb stoner dude w/a sense of humor kinda thing.

libcrypt, Monday, 7 July 2008 17:54 (fifteen years ago) link

With all the irony abuse these days, best thing is just to avoid irony altogether in yr ink unless you have a real rib-tickler on yr paws.

libcrypt, Monday, 7 July 2008 18:05 (fifteen years ago) link

I probably posted this somewhere else but it's the best awesome stupid regrettable tattoo ever:

sunny successor, Monday, 7 July 2008 18:25 (fifteen years ago) link

joygoat before i even read what you wrote i thought 'way to ruin self!'

sunny successor, Monday, 7 July 2008 18:25 (fifteen years ago) link

Someone must have inked up the dolphin when he was blotto & out.

libcrypt, Monday, 7 July 2008 18:27 (fifteen years ago) link

im impressed that he can recline a) with a fin and b) under water

sunny successor, Monday, 7 July 2008 18:31 (fifteen years ago) link
