Ilia Topuria has already made history. We know that the Hispano-Georgian is insatiable and practice this sport for pure vocation. “I give him my body and he acts for me,” he says in an interview with ABC.
Some details are known about his private life, although there is a very personal topic that he has not been afraid to talk about. It’s about his tattoos. We tell you How many do you have and what does each one mean?.
Ilia Topuria’s tattoos, one by one
In recent years we have become accustomed to seeing the skin of many athletes adorned with black ink drawings. And it is that the tattoos have become a identity sign of the person who wears it. A way to have an ‘indelible’ mark on your body that you never want to forget.
Ilia Topuria has done several. In fact, not even he himself knows the exact figure. “By number, I don’t know how many I have because there are quite a few,” he says in an interview.
The fighter points out that most of them do not have a specific meaning. “These are things that I liked aesthetically along the way and I drew them,” he says. However, it stands out two of them that are special.
A cross on his back
The first thing Topuria talks about is the tattoo he has on his back. The 27-year-old indicates that he is “the most significant.” It is a cross. It is ‘blackwork’ style. For this type of drawings, the ink is not applied using shading or gradients, but rather it is delimited in very marked areas. Just below this one he has another tattoo, which goes for the entire spine.
The entire drawing as a whole has been highly commented on because many compare it to the one worn by the Irish fighter. Conor McGregor. However, the Spaniard has dispelled the doubts and has said that he did it after a commercial event with the first brand that sponsored him.

A crown with the letter T on the chest
The second tattoo that Topuria highlights is the one he calls “loguito.” It’s a octagon with a crown at the top and the letter T (the initial of your last name) in the center.
On his chest he also wears a wolf that is divided into two. Between these halves appears the face of a man with a beard, although it is not known exactly who he is.
In addition, Topuria carries all the left arm covered in black ink. He has so many tattoos that it is difficult to distinguish them, although you can see a clock, a rose, among others. Furthermore, with the passage of time, new ones have been made on top of the ones they already had.
