    I do empirical research for a living. I would love to read the study. I find it hard to believe that eye color is the main determinant of reaction times.

    Interesting...I've heard about the colors of the gloves making a difference, but never eye color.

    that would not suprise me at all i heard about that years ago
    i also read about light eyed people being better at slower type motor skills that do not involve quick instincts such as golf, pool/snooker

    I believe the study was carried out by the same researchers that proved light-eyed boxers hook off the jab better. Interesting stuff.
