Ilia Topuria covers chest tattoo, replaces face with Spartan warrior helmet

Ilia Topuria has had a tattoo on his chest altered. The original design featured a tiger with a face inside it, though the identity of the face is unclear. He has now covered that portion with the image of a warrior wearing a Corinthian helmet, most likely representing a Spartan. The post does not provide details on why Topuria chose to make the change or the significance of the new design. The author notes they have not seen an official explanation for the original face depicted.
