Teofimo Lopez- Taking Over His Tattoo
The young world champion has “MCMXVI” written on his chest. In roman digits, it means 1916. As Lopez was born in 1997, it is clearly not his birthdate. Much to the dismay of fans, Lopez has never revealed the exact meaning of the ink. Hence, they can only speculate on the same.
Teofimo Lopez also has a tattoo on his back. It is a long artwork that replicates several designs. ‘Take Over’ appears to have made the tattoo quite recently and has revealed the exact meaning of each of those figures to his fans.
The unified 135 lbs titlist said, “So these tattoos that I got behind me, is the four elements of life pretty much you know.”
“So, it’s earth, water, fire, and air, and the last one I saved for last was, right by my neck area is the tree of life.”
Despite hailing from the vicious 135 lbs roster, Lopez always seems confident about remaining the best. Although he hasn’t faced many champions from the division, we can see him do that in the future. As of now. ‘Take Over’ is arguably the best boxer from the lightweight unit.
He will look to maintain that record for a long time, thus cementing his place among the greats.
