Default Re: Hitting yourself in the head for 'punch resistance'

i used to drop myself 2-3 times a run from punching myself in the face while running. added in with the 2-3 times that i would drop myself with well placed body shots, those were some tough miles only making me tougher and hungrier. and i was always up before a count of 10 could ever be reached on every run.... to the best of my recollection. i did get pulled over twice while running by the police. they'd always jump out with a towel for my bulbous and bloodied face demanding that i tell them which way that the viscious gang had gone. they were always amazed at my dedication and pure passion that i displayed for the sport. yeah two times they made me stop the run because there was just too much blood and gore.

its not easy to be a fighter, nothing about it is supposed to easy. if it was than everybody would be doing it. the rigorous sparring that leaves you standing beside yourself as you re-glove for your bag work. the freshness of it all as the ringing continues long after the last bell sounds. the dedication and love excelling you through every work out.

I sarcasmed the one guy sarcasming the sarcastic remark of the other sarcastic guy, except for the previous paragraph.

It probably would help, but at the cost oc brain cells. I remember reading somewhere that marciano and his brothers would line up across the room from each other. they would then sprint head first at each other and collide head to head winner being the one standing. it probably killed a lot of brain cells, but no one ever argues about marciano having a weak chin. he was definitely born with a very strong chin, but i bet the slamming of the heads for years has at least a small increase in your ability to take a punch

I'm inclined to respond properly, but I think I'll just leave it as a joke.
Now, how do you stop your hand from being broken? By punching your own hand
