Why does Jon Anik have a 209 tattoo

As mentioned, Anik is a household name within the MMA world. However, many hardcore fans might not know why the UFC commentator has a '209' tattoo. Anik made a bet that if Nate Diaz beat Conor McGregor at UFC 196, he would get the '209' tattoo after the bout. The UFC commentator proved he was a man of his word and got the tattoo back in 2016. The tattoo is on Anik's arm and is clearly visible, which gained the 44-year-old a lot of respect for keeping his end of the deal. Listen to Anik speak about the '209' tattoo here: Nate Diaz shocked the world by submitting Conor McGregor in the second round of their pay-per-view bout. The fight was the main event at UFC 196. '209' is the area code for Stockton, California. It is the birthplace of Nate Diaz and his brother Nick Diaz. Both fighters are known for their "gangster" mentality after surviving a tough upbringing in Stockton. So, getting the '209' tattoo was Anik's way of showing Nate Diaz respect. Jon Anik has not made anymore tattoo bets since this infamous event. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
