    Weight and build can determine one punch resistance e.g. strong legs etc, also whether they had to drain themselves to make weight can affect them. Ive got an old article in a boxing magazines which explains what can contribute to ones ability to take a punch, it was a good read but i cant find it.

    I think most importantly it comes down to how fast your reaction time is, meaning how fast you can spot that you in danger and brace for the impact.

    had a burst eardrum totally unrelated to fighting and i dropped straight away - not sure if down to the eardrum or potential damage beyond it but was weird.

    When you get punched in the head, it forces your head in the opposite direction of the punch.

    The person automatically resists the movement caused by the punch, yet because the brain is floating in fluid, it continues to travel in the direction of the punch.


    The brain then collides with the skull, potentially causing a knockout.

    I can also imagine that after impact, the brain is stationary and is hit by the skull moving toward it.


    In any case, the way to avoid being knocked out by a punch is for your head to not move much when you are hit. If your head doesn't move, your skull doesn't collide with your brain. This is why people are knocked out more frequently when they don't see a punch coming and don't brace for it.


    Most likely, some people have a thicker stronger anatomy such that their head isn't pushed around as much when they are punched. It could also have something to do with how much space is inside the skull, the thickness of the skull, the thickness of the meninges.
