3. Aleksandar Rakic
A force to be reckoned with in the UFC light heavyweight division is Aleksander Rakic. He burst onto the scene back in 2017 when he entered the UFC and won four in a row. Now he is rising up the ranks and getting that much closer to a title shot. Now that Jon Jones is gone and there is a new top dog in the division, Rakic could be there as a tough challenge for Jan Błachowicz in the near future.
Rakic is a native of Austria and fights with many top UFC fighters. He can hang with the best in the organization in both fighting skills and ink. Rakic shows off his amazing tribal looking piece every time he fights. his right arm sleeve is so detailed. It starts at the wrist and goes up and around the shoulder to his chest.

There is a lot going on inside that tattoo, from what looks like fish or scales at some parts to a mask and a gladiator. The arm and shoulder piece is the most prominent of Rakic’s tattoos but he has other ones. His leg is another masterpiece. A giant portrait of a lion graces his upper thigh and is drawn with so much detail.
If you weren’t already sure that Rakic was a man who will do some damage inside the cage, his other chest tattoo will let you know for sure. Across the left side of his chest are the word “Ready for war.” His track record inside the cage shows that this tattoo is a correct representation of Rakic’s style.
