Have you read the article about Mr. Mundine? It's a sad story alright. I hope he bounces back, but he may want to re-think this getting punched for a living thing.
As far as defense mechanisms against our own saliva, I think it's more along the lines of being immune to our own germs.
Not only that, but think about the eye itself. If you have soap on your hands, that's probably a good thing. You get that same soap in your eyes . . .
