We will never question the toughness of JP Joubert. In his last bout against Norman Wessels in EFC 15, Joubert fractured his skull yet still managed to not only finish the fight, but he also won by TKO. After receiving "a multitude of knees, elbows and fists," JP was diagnosed in the EFC injury report as suffering a “frontal sinus fracture and concussion,” which would stop most people dead in their tracks.

Thanks to steady flow of adrenaline coursing through his body, Joubert was able to push the pain to the side until the end of the fight when he realized that his head effing hurt like hell! In case you're interested in seeing how it happened, below is the video of the fight. Just skip ahead to the 10:20 mark.
