Just something to keep in mind.
I agree that boxing and kickboxing are great arts. However if someone practices another art(s) for SD wouldn't it help them to just really strengthen there neck to help them take a punch? I say this due to the fact that there are other sparring MAs out there. If I'm wrong let me know so I'm no longer "as" ignorant.
