No, itβs not a new walkout song or gear change β itβs fresh ink.
Oliveira recently unveiled a brand-new leg sleeve tattoo, and unlike many tattoos seen across the MMA landscape, this one actually hits. While fight fans are no strangers to questionable ink β head designs, mismatched styles, and outright ugly tattoos are almost a rite of passage in the sport β Oliveira continues to be an exception.
The Brazilian star added a full PokΓ©mon-themed sleeve to his leg, featuring fan favorites like Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Mewtwo, Charmander, Charizard, and Primeape. Itβs lined nicely, detailed, and cohesive β three things that canβt always be said about MMA tattoos.
Check out the video below:
This new addition fits perfectly with Oliveiraβs growing collection of standout body art. His iconic lion back tattoo is already one of the most recognizable pieces in the UFC, a work that reportedly took more than 10 hours under the needle. Whether itβs symbolic, personal, or just plain cool, Oliveiraβs tattoos consistently look intentional β not impulsive.
