I Wonder What I'd Look Like Getting Punched in the Face

Curiously enough, there's one thing that I'm always amazed I've never done: participate in a fist fight. Sure, I've punched someone before (one shot to the gut and he was down for the count) and I've even been punched in the face once, although he was too drunk to really make solid contact. But I've never been in a fight. For whatever reason, I've long fancied that I'd do well in one. Maybe that's simply the natural inclination of men. I really do imagine I'd be able to put up a strong fight, though: I'm pretty strong, pretty agile, and I have a good, high tolerance for pain. I'm not a violent person and I'm not known for having a temper. And, I guess I don't really put myself in situations where fights are warranted (if there truly are such situations). For some reason, though, I've always wondered how I would fare in such a situation.

For your enjoyment, here is a link to a video of people getting punched in the face at 1000 frames/second:
