    Jeff Horn
    Evander Holyfield

    Holyfield vs Tyson he headbutted him that many times it was unreal. Jeff Horn the Aussie is diabolical. Can't believe how many times he lunges in with his head.

    Was that punch legit that caught Usyk? Usyk had his shorts up high. Looked legit to me.

    Daniel Dubois, Evander Holyfield, Bernard Hopkins and Andre Ward.

    No, Usyk's shorts were not too high and it was a low blow. But Fury has his shorts up to his nipples in his Usyk fights.

    I know this is trendy thing to say but have DD been caught head butting in any other fights? Have he done it with fighters that’s not taller than him and how many times have been warned for head butting, been taken a point away for head butting or DQ because of head butting?

    Everyone know what’s the difference between accidental clash of heads and actually head butting, right?

    Not justifying leading with your head but it is pretty common with aggressive fighters that’s coming forward to clash heads with opponents.

    Watch the first round of his fight with Joshua.

    He came in with his head the same as he did with Hrgovic, but this time the referee warned him and he stopped doing it, Joshua being a British fighter.

    He won't get away with it against the British fighter Wardley either.

    Dubois stuck the nut on Hrgovic that many times it was ridiculous. John Latham refereed it and just wasn't that bothered . There a post on these pages somewhere citing something like 25 times he put the nut on. I'd like to see a rematch with a decent ref.

    Tyson. Led with his head all the time but when he copped the same in return from Evander him and his fans turned into whining, complaining bitches.

    To be fair to Holyfield he only became a billy goat when the steroids made him lose all his hair. He never had a rep for butting before that.
