Ilia Topuria Covers Previous Tattoo with Spartan Warrior Design

Ilia Topuria has covered up his chest tattoo, replacing the previous design with a warrior wearing a Corinthian helmet, most likely depicting a Spartan. The original tattoo featured a tiger with a face inside it, though the identity of the face was unclear and not explained in available sources. The new tattoo maintains the tiger but substitutes the previous facial image with the helmeted warrior. The modification represents a significant change to one of Topuria's most prominent tattoos. The post asked readers to share information if they knew the identity of the original face design. No official statement from Topuria about the meaning of either design has been reported.
