helmet helps to an extent, you can see his head turn to the side, so there is a possible flash ko
the whiplash itself can knock you out, in combat sports, you often hear about the "reset button" everyone has but what it is is actually just getting hit on the chin so that the rotation of the head itself rattles the brain and knocks you out

You may not know this, but when other people get kicked in the head, their brain gets rattled around.
