    A glass skin thread would have been more interesting.

    Martinez got cut in the Chavez fight, but he hardly ever bruises.

    ricky hatton came to mind on the glass skin

    seeing how hes been in alot of wars did gatti evet cut.. he might of on the regular but all i ever remember was the freakish amount of swelling his eyes use to get, but that might of just tuck my focus/attention away from the actual cut itself

    Henry Cooper is the first person that comes to mind in terms of glass skin, he cut all the time.

    Duran/Whitaker/Sanchez/Locche deserves a mention.

    Floyd got his bottom lip busted open by Cottos numerous jabs . a cut is a cut .

    But as in facial cuts , i dont recall ever seeing anyone open up Floyd . It Probably never will happen either, Money is very good at timing his opponents moves .

    Most black and to a lesser extent mestizo fighters have excellent skin, but Barrera and Marquez cut a fair amount, sometimes grotesquely.

    Except for the famous Oscar fight, Chavez had good skin, but that was just weird.

    White guys in general are at a very great disadvantage when it comes to skin. Some fighters always open gross cuts on their opponents because of their technique or snap- just about everybody who fought Arguello got sliced open - something about the way he twisted his hand or the glove he used induced nasty cuts.

    Guys with good defense should not qualify. What about guys who get hit a lot but rarely get marked up? Rios comes to mind. Maidana as well.

    Well even guys with great defensive ability ala hopkins have still been hit a decent amount when you have a career as long as his, so he still qualifies. He is known for being a headbutter, and still never has cut, so I think he does have some tough ass skin.
