I don't reserve any particular disdain for Craig Burley as I do for Lawro or Andy Townsend and thus he falls into the large category of "pish and mediocre" that about 75% of all commentators/analysts find themselves in.
But this is just spectacularly stupid. MENSA need not stress about processing an application from a "Mr C. Burley" anytime soon.

Ridiculous bet to make, but fair play to him for sticking to his word...can't believe he's going to have to live with that for the rest of his life.

Looks fake to me as the 'finished' shot straight after the tattooist finishes has no redness or other obvious signs of a fresh tattoo.

Agree with others that it's possibly fake.
Most folk bleed quite badly when tattooed so the artist has to continually wipe away meaning the transfer starts to blur near the end, this doesn't seem to be the case here. Plus, when he flashes it in the studio it reminded me of a Bazooka Joe bubble gum transfer after my mum tried to scrub off me on a Sunday night prior to school the next day!!
