    (You see) Filumenus. Our lords and emperors Valentinian, Valens and Gratian, forever Augusti, decided that Filumenus, who was victorious in every athletic contest from East to West in combined events ( pammachus ), wrestling, pancratium, and with the gloves that is boxing, was worth of eternal glory [achieved by] the setting up of a statue in the hall of the athletes ( curia athletarum ). All athletes ( xystici ) accepted that gratefully, the senate likewise, and also the Roman people followed with immense favour.
