    Chavez had tight skin until his latter career when his skin seemed to get thin.

    Ok I edited the original post so that we can discuss glass skin as well :D

    Someone already pointed it out, but Henry Cooper is definitely the poster boy for glass skin.

    If Hopkins fought like Brandon Rios would Bernard's skin still hold up? MAYBE. We don't know for sure. I'm just more impressed with guys who get hit A LOT in every fight yet rarely get marked up.

    It's more impressive if they've never been bloody.

    So Hopkins.

    I've been thinking about him in terms of present day fighters.

    Never seen Khan cut, that's true. He does swell a little though, not heavily at all, his skin is solid.

    When did you see him cut?

    Edit: Didn't realize that was a link, a pay cut isn't the kind of cut we were talking about lmao.

    Yeah, I think you're right.

    You'll notice alot of guys who do cut alot have protruding eyebrows, I've even heard of guys like Nick Diaz in MMA who got his eyebrows filed down to stop cutting, and it helped drastically. People who have sharp bone structures are always cut prone.

    Ali had great thick skin and the perfect face to prevent cuts.
