I seem to recall reading that some gladiators had a layer of fat, perhaps because that way in fights not intended to end in death, shallow wounds would bleed a lot and entertain the crowd without causing serious injury.
Bit like wrestlers cutting themselves on the face? Much drama for little actual damage.
