Attn. Eddie Bravo-10th Planet Tattoo in Memory of a friend.....

I recently lost my best friend to a drug overdose. His name was Andrew Da Silva and both of us were amateur MMA fighters about to turn pro this summer. We loved your stuff Eddie, we owned all your books, dvds, and we would be on this site constantly trying to keep up with all the new techniques you were adding. We lived out here in Merced, Ca and there is no 10th Planet in sight so we would go to other schools just to test out our rubber guards on other guys and we got pretty good at it I must say lol. I was just hoping If I can have your blessing on getting this tattoo done here in the next couple weeks. We never met you Eddie but we always felt like we knew you personally through your work. Thank you so much.

It's always ultra flattering/surreal to me and a huge honor when someone in the family gets a 10th planet tattoo, like JC, John Alighieri, and Botello so hell yeah you have my blessing but you gotta promise to post a pic when it's done.

My condolences to Andrew's family and friends, RIP.

Thank you very much for the support :)

Thanks for your response. Yeah I'll definitely post that pic when I get it done. Should be within the next month or so.

Just make sure you go to an awesome tattooist. Don't be put off by price, I paid a large amount for mine and it was worth it.

I'm sorry for your loss, and I think it's a great idea what you are doing. RIP Andrew

very cool i have old school gracie tat on neck and medical leaf on arm but i think that is very cool and much support cant wait to see after its done

good luck with your mma career
