    Pedraza didn't really land all that much or all that frequently, yet Loma looked like he was beat up after the fight.

    Yes, obviously. "Baby skin", in his own words.

    Pedraza doesn't punch hard, either. I can see Davis getting a stoppage via cuts or extreme swelling.

    It was strange, his eyes were marked up. He definitely has fragile skin but doesn't seem to actually get cuts often.

    A dermatologist could fix that issue.

    There’s an old secret fighters used to use to toughen their skin. Washing your face with your own pee. No soap. Just pee. Any of you guys that are having this problem should try it.

    I think its because hes not used to taking as many punches as majority of boxers therefore his skin facial tissue isn't toughened as much. Just my theory though !

    Lomachenko was basically born to be a super model, but had the ring IQ and the athleticism to become an elite level boxer, so his skin tearing up easily is not surprising.

    Very but it's not as fragile as the self-esteem of many of his haters :D

    Definitely seems like white fighters cut up a lot easier than others. It would be interesting to know if studies have been done.
