‘Money’, who will fight in the UK for the first time ever, was meant to face English Muay Thai fighter Liam Harrison but he pulled out with an injury. 

Therefore, Chalmers has replaced him and will aim to beat one of the greatest fighters of all time to make a huge statement in the boxing world.

When he takes to the ring, many will notice the unique tattoos on his neck and arms so talkSPORT took a deeper look...

What do Aaron Chalmers’ tattoos mean?

Chalmers has blackout tattoos on his left arm and hand as well as his neck. 

The areas were originally covered with colourful tattoos until he made the decision to completely black them out. 

The 35-year-old has tattoos all over his body but plans to cover up all of them with the ink as what he called 'the real work' starts.

The drastic changes led to many fans questioning his choice but he is known to be proud of his body artwork and defended his decision. 

Chalmers responded to negative comments in 2018 and said: "Why am I blacking my tattoos out???? Simple. Because it's my body and I want to! Don't let it ruin your day."

The tattoos will be on show this weekend at the O2 Arena for the huge fight with Mayweather which will be taking place on Saturday, February 25.
