Nate Landwehr’s tattoos are mostly lettering: “The Train” sits high on his left chest, and a larger “FAITH” design runs across his lower abdomen. The first phrase matches his fight nickname; he hasn’t publicly explained the personal meaning behind FAITH.
The Train Chest Tattoo
“The Train” is written in loose, connected script just below Landwehr’s left collarbone. Its long capital strokes follow the line of his chest. In an action photo, the lettering stays visible as he punches Dooho Choi, though Choi’s own back tattoos belong to the other fighter.
Landwehr competes under The Train nickname, which links the phrase to his public identity. It isn’t a picture of a locomotive, and the available photos don’t show when or why he chose this placement.
The FAITH Abdomen Lettering
The word FAITH appears in ornate capitals across Landwehr’s lower stomach. The letters arc above the waistband, with the navel left visible. Curled strokes and changes in line weight make this a more elaborate design than the smaller chest script.
The photograph establishes the word, but not a specific religious affiliation or personal story. Shorts can cover the lowest strokes, so the standing portrait gives a clearer view than a fight image.
Two Different Lettering Styles
A weigh-in photo shows the contrast between the two styles: The Train flows as connected writing, while FAITH is made of separate, decorated capitals. The scale sign hides part of the abdomen tattoo, and Landwehr’s chain crosses his chest; neither is part of the ink.
The larger word takes more space, but bare skin remains between the letters and between the two tattoos. There’s no illustrated border or background joining them into one piece.
The Tattoos in a Wider View
In a celebration photo, Landwehr stands with his arms spread and both inscriptions visible. The pose changes the curve of his chest and stomach, but the placement remains the same: the nickname high on the left, FAITH low across the abdomen.
This wider view shows how the lettering sits on his torso; the standing portrait is better for reading the strokes. The photographs here focus on his front, so they don’t establish whether he has other tattoos elsewhere.
Inside the Octagon
The fight photo places Landwehr on the right and Choi on the left inside the cage. Landwehr’s torso is turned, so this image gives competition context rather than a clear look at the lettering.
The interview below is a conversation with James Lynch about fighting, Landwehr’s contract and fatherhood. It doesn’t explain the tattoos; their visible wording can stand on its own without assigning them a story the interview doesn’t provide.
