i remember watching a Hunt fight at a bar where there were 2 Orthodox jewish dudes there and I heard them mention recognizing Hunto's neck tatt...i think it's supposed to be the name of one of his children
anyway, they said the tattoo was written backwards and in mirror image of the proper hebrew word
can anyone confirm?
Its actually written correctly but since he's in the Southern hemisphere it appears backwards on tv. Same concept as the Coriolis effect and water swirling down the drain in the opposite direction.

Was gonna say this. Very well explained

Wtf? I'm an idiot so idk if I believe this or not.
Eddy Payeur is joking or misinformed. I don't know about the backwards part, but a UFC source says: "Number of neck tattoos he has that read “Noah” -- his son's name -- in Hebrew" (link: http://www.ufc.com/news/ufc-brisbane-by-the-numbers-mark-hunt?id=)
lol you guys really believe eddy payeur's post ? lol

I was confused by how many people seemed to take that seriously lol
Someone should go and point at Hunts neck and laugh out loud while you tell him that his tattoo is backwards.
Im sure Mark and his buddies will appreciate you pointing this out.
my jewish neighbor just said the tattoo reads "Noah" in reverse
and it seems that hunto does indeed hav e ason named Noah
who is fucking adorable by the way
I wouldn't wanna tell him. Fuck that.

That's a small GIF so it's hard to make out but to me it looks like "chen", which means grace.
my friend says it appears to look like that word "chen"...bc it is another letter/character reverse/mirrored, which makes it look similar to that "chen" word
my friend reads hebrew and has a son named noah as well....so he immediately recognized it

It's definitely not Noah, but I'm not sure it's "chen". I'll send this to a family member in Israel and get back to you.
if that's the case
then ill let my boy know what a disappointing jew he is, lol
i could see the similarity

To me it looks more like a Kaph than a Nun. But it's possible.
i doubt his tattoo artist knew all the nuances of the Hebrew alphabet, lol
im not saying shit to hunto!
It's just some squiggly lines.
No one in my family is sure what it says and they speak Hebrew fluently. Reverse the letters and it says Noah. But if Mark wants to change the language I'm not gonna tell him no.

I assumed they were just playing along with it, but you never know.
I assume that Mark showed the tattoo artist the name written in hebrew and they did not realize that hebrew goes from right to left instead of left to right. The dot and line underneath are the vowels, but, inexplicably, most hebrew, unless you are learning it, is written without vowels. The tatoo is messed up in three ways that make it not appear as the noah posted above. It is reversed, there are no vowels, and the first letter (the one on the left in marks tattoo) is not drawn perfectly.

This is bad info.
Because anyone knows you are to slap him
across the face with a big back handed THWACK immediately before going all Oliver Peck and telling him that his tattoo looks wonky.
