What is it that makes someone better/worse at taking a punch in the face? You always here people say sh*t like: Blah Blah is good, but he has a glass jaw. What makes your jaw glass/steel?
Well, when people get knocked the **** out, it's usually because a punch causes their head to move a short distance very quickly, causing their brain to bounce off the inside of their skull.
I'd hazard a guess that having super strong and thick neck muscles would help reduce the amount your head recoils when punched.
Just a guess though, I have no idea.
