If you ever meet an MMA fan and they say they don’t admire any fighter’s tattoos, they’re possibly lying. From the very beginning of the UFC, fighters have chosen tattoos as a passage to represent their mentality, motivation, or passion for the sport. From Brock Lesnar‘s menacing back tattoo of a demonic skull to the ‘Notorious’ Conor McGregor‘s legendary Tiger and Gorilla on his front, tattoos have played a much larger role than just an aesthetic addition to the sport. And Mexico’s pride, Brandon Moreno, has just attempted to join these fighters with a new tattoo he has just revealed.
Already carrying an array of them, Moreno’s tattoos have always been a topic of interest in the MMA community. His tattoos, like many other fighters, carry a deeper meaning behind ‘The Assassin Baby’s bodily image. One special piece that the fans talk about is his ‘Mickey Mouse’ tattoo on the Mexican fighter’s upper left back. This unusual piece represents Moreno’s appreciation for joy, dreams, and positivity, which perfectly aligns with his cheerful personality.
One of the most significant tattoos that Brandon carries is a callback to the last Aztec emperor, Cuauhtémoc, representing resilience and resistance. The tattoo is also a tribute to his hometown of Tijuana. And in reference to the Aztec Empire, yet again, Moreno took to his Instagram to reveal a new piece dedicated to an Aztec deity named ‘Quetzalcoatl’, meaning “Feathered Serpent.”
The vibrant serpent head is surrounded by tri-colored petals for its neck. The combination of colors teal, orange, and red can be seen playing together to bring out a rather beautiful tattoo.
A tattoo so good, that fans are even complementing its creator in the comments. Moreover, Moreno did not forget to give credit to the creator behind his tattoo as he thanked the man named ‘Ezekiel Pierson’ for his amazing efforts.
So how did the fans take the news when Brandon Moreno showed them his latest ink addition? Let’s read further to find out.
