Exactly, though I have to admit I would not have noticed the padded coif in this Mosaic so thank you very much for the great find.
It is especialy interesting as here the Provocator seems to be doing quite well without the helmet wounding his opponents hand.
I have added further examples of helmet padding in Gladiatorial iconography in the other thread:
