Is it just me, or does this seem like a little inconsitent when it comes to crocs endurance?

Croc's endurance has undoubtedly increased due to his time in Impel. Remember he was shown to have been in quite a few fights during a minstory. Because he was handcuffed with seastone at the time, that means he could be hit all the time he was locked up. Any fight he got in would've been a bare fist-bare chin brawl for both him and Mr. 1. And if you factor in all the torturing he undoubtedly went through, it wouldn't be surprising that after all that he could take a hit better.
