Even if it wasn’t heavier, bones are still harder than flesh. If a skeleton punched you, it would hurt way more than a fleshy padded fist.

Punches mostly hurt because of the mass of the fist and arm. If you’ve ever been punched by a kid you probably weren’t hurt. A skeleton weighs less than a 6-year-old, so there wouldn’t be much mass behind the punch.

But, then again, magic.

Uhhm, how much flesh is there on your knuckles? A few millimeters of skin aren’t dampening a punch
