We put strong constraints on Lorentz violation by studying the inner structure of highly energetic protons. Our work is in direct continuation of previous analysis based on dimensions 4, 5 and 6 Lorentz violating operators. Our original contribution is due to the study of the inner structure of hadrons and their relation with Lorentz violating operators. The strength of the constraints arising from this new analysis should discourage us to propose new general theories that are Lorentz violating.
