Then I guess I have no bones in my hand strike, because I have punched people when wearing no gloves, and I did not break my hand. I've also been punched in the face by people who didn't break their hands, and I have seen it happen to other people.
A person has a flexible neck, and it absorbs a lot of the force of a punch. Also, when punched in the face, it is a person's natural reaction to follow the punch backward most times.
Strike, not only my own experience and observations, but also history are against you. You are falling into the big lie of modern sports fighting that is meant to cater to the lowest possible denominator. And people currently involved in modern sports fighting believe the lie religiously. They think they are much smarter and physically superior to their predecessors, and that 'modern sports medicine' is the ultimate source of truth. Modern sports fighting is designed to make the most money possible, with the least risk and work possible, while attracting as many people as possible.
