Black boxers have stronger skin

[Mr.0pal]

black fighters can get bruised up as easily as whites but it's less noticeable. they get less sunburn i give you that

It has been proven by scientists.... not wild guesses.... that highly melinated skin is thicker with more compact skin cells.

A lot of people dont know but Meldrick Taylor came into the Chavez bout looking like this

[Hougigo]

Is this supposed to prove the information provided wrong? Or is it just funny to post images of bruised or cut fighters in response to information that you're not equipped to sufficiently refute with other information?

Oh wow OP... didn't know you're a black skin expert.

[Come∂ian]

For the comprehensively challenged, again, the information nor the thread implies that it is impossible for black boxers to be cut or bruised. If I were to post images of fair skinned boxers bleeding and busted up I would no doubt drown you all out of the website. And non of those pic look as bad as this guy


And that's only one pic.

Nope just agreeing with you about how amazing rough dark skin is

[Mr.0pal]

Oh wow OP... didn't know you're a black skin expert.

I referred you to the experts... which is more than any of you have done thus far... making your objections failures.

From what I read, he was basing his information on what Scientists have discovered or studied.

It is amazing isn't it?

Acknowledging that would remove their opportunity to have fun with the topic. Either that or they're just not capable of processing the information in the source provided.

I just found this information.

Differences between black skin and white skin

The epidermis of black skin contains less glutathione than white skin.
(Reduced glutathione may be responsible for skin color. Inhibition of epidermal glutathione system leads to darker skin, and glutathione in the epidermis has been shown to inhibit melanogenesis.)

In the epidermis of white skin, hyperpigmentation or tanning is always followed by a drop in glutathione reductase and reduced glutathione.

Black skin have larger melanosomes than white skin.

Black skin has a higher electrical resistance than white skin, which suggests
greater cohesion and thickness.

Black skin has more and larger fibroblasts than white skin. The fibroblasts in
black skin are also more multi-nucleated. This can lead to more abnormal scarring and keloid formation.

Black skin also has larger mast cell granules than white skin, which may also play a part in keloid formation.

The stratum corneum of black skin has more layers and stronger cells than in white skin.

Black skin and Asian skin have thicker and more compact dermis than white skin. This is also why blacks and Asians have fewer facial wrinkles than whites.

Black skin has more casual lipids and more moisture in the stratum corneum than white skin.

Black skin sheds its outer layers more (increased desquamation) than white skin

Black skin has 50% lower ceramides than white or Hispanic skin. Asians have the highest skin ceramide levels.

Black and Indian skin has two times more alkali-insoluble melanin (darker DHI-enriched eumelanin) than white skin, hispanic skin and Chinese skin.

Black skin has a lower pH than white skin.

What does this mean?

The differences between our skin can determine several things.

Effectiveness of topical skin lightening creams and lotions

Safety of chemical peels and skin laser treatments

Our skin’s healing response to wounds and the formation of abnormal scars.
