2023 was a great year for Diego Lopes, and 2024 can be even better! Last year, Lopez fought thrice, winning two of those fights via finishes. Moreover, the Brazilian fighter even won a ‘Performance Of The Night’ bonus in those two victories. 

Now, he has the chance to replicate his success at the biggest stage, UFC 300. On the biggest UFC PPV’s preliminary card, Lopes will face UFC’s rising name Sodiq Yusuff. As the fight inches closer, fans grow more and more excited to know about Diego Lopes. One of the things they often look at is the Brazilian’s tattoos and their meaning. Here is all we know about Lopes’ inks. 

Diego Lopes’ famous chest tattoo and the meaning behind it 

Other than violence, UFC fighters are also famous for their unique tattoos. And each tattoo has a deep meaning, making things even more interesting! The same is the case for Diego Lopes, who has a pretty unique tattoo on his chest. The 29-year-old has a ‘Dream Believe Make It Happen’ tattoo over his chest. For a long time, fans wondered why the inspiring phrase was tatted on Lopes’ chest.

A few weeks ago, the UFC featherweight finally opened up about it. According to Lopes, he was going through some personal struggles when he got the tattoo. “When I got the tattoo on my chest, I was going through a difficult time in my life and career. I wanted to wake up every day in the morning, see myself in the mirror, and remember why I left my house at 18 years old. I couldn’t stop until I achieved everything I had dreamed of.”

Other tattoos of Diego Lopes 

The chest tattoo is not the only one on Lopes’ body! He has a tattoo on his right forearm. From the pictures where it is visible, it looks like a highly sophisticated design of a lion’s face. On his left arm, near the elbow, he has another symbol tattooed.

On the right side of his rib cage, he has another tattoo. It seems like a quote, that might have personal significance to the Brazilian, and seems to be in his native tongue rather than English.
