WATCH: UFC commentator Jon Anik comes good on vow to get tattoo if Nate Diaz beat Conor McGregor

It would have been so easy to pretend he'd never made such a promise.

But, all credit to him, Jon Anik is a man of his word. Prior to UFC 196, the MMA commentator was so sure of a Conor McGregor victory that he made the promise to get Nate Diaz's Stockton area code tattooed on his body should the man from Nor-Cal triumph. The lack of faith shown in Diaz clearly irked the former TUF winner who said in his post-fight press conference that "Jon Anik better get a motherf**king '209' tattoo or I'ma whoop his little ass." https://twitter.com/Jon_Anik/status/706363436897275904?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw But there will be no ass-whoopings required as Anik stayed true to his word by seeking out a tattooist on Thursday to go through with his forfeit. https://twitter.com/ufc/status/708124792583401472 https://twitter.com/HardRockEnergy/status/708039664805003265 And rather than tuck it away on his leg or back where the artwork would never be seen, Anik actually got it proudly emblazoned across his left forearm for the whole world to see. https://twitter.com/NateDiaz209/status/708085205391683584
