As you get older your body breaks down. When you get hit a lot your brain swells. This combination causes problems. Take care of yourself and remember boxing is HIT and DON'T get HIT. Some of these new fanny boys do not understand that.

If you have had your trigger pulled, your brain will also wire it self to shut down to stop further damage when traumatic damage happens again it is a subconscious defense for the brain to protect it self from sustaining more trauma

Some good replies. Must be things to do with brain, but also some replies contradict what can happen. Like a trigger to hut the body down once it has done it before. Seems some boxers overcome it by being a god weight.

A lot of good points have been made already, but I think that one of the biggest factors in taking a punch well and recovering quickly that hasn't been mentioned is conditioning. Fighters with unusual levels of stamina tend to take big shots well and recover within seconds. Look at fighters like Calzaghe, Bradley and Froch. Even look at fighters like Margarito and Paul Williams. Ok, they both got brutally knocked out eventually, but look at the shots they took in fights beforehand. Stamina and conditioning won't make you invincible, particularly if you have natually poor punch resistance, and especially if you make a habit of taking big shots repeatedly, but I'm convinced it plays a big part.
