    Specifically can you give some pointers anything that will help.

    For example: neck exercises, learn to slip, learn to block, bite hard on your mouth piece, roll with the shot, etc

    Neck exercises but be very careful and seek professional help if you do neck exercises wrong your in serious trouble.

    Most important proper stance with weight evenly distributed.

    Good mouth guard custom made from dentist

    Mental grit repeat to yourself you will absorb the shot and dont panic

    Try not stand square on and give less of a target.

    DONT GET TIRED this is the main cause. Make sure you conditioned properly

    Be cautious when facing a big puncher dont let them get set and plant their feet

    Keep your chin tucked in. Use a tennis ball under your chin till it becomes a habit

    When throwing a jab tuck your chin in and return your arm asap. Work your triceps for this.

    And most Importantly

    I got a skull fracture at a young age, that seems to have helped.
