    props to @CST80 for pointing it out in the other thread.

    I never noticed that Yarde's head was so miniature, it doesnt bode well when facing such a puncher like Kovalev. I also wondered why his shoulders looked so wide. now we know they are just way out of proportion to his tiny beetlejuice like head. Poor Yarde. its something you cannot change, everyone knows having a tiny head is detrimental to ones punch resistance. There was only one boxer who had a small head and an iron chin and that was Marvin Hagler.

    Do you think it is smaller than Rico "Goomba" Spadafora's?

    No not that small. Rico's head is a marble.

    my head isnt a big one, but then again im not a boxer taking punches of top Lhw's, its the wrong sport to be in for the small headed.

    Yarde's head is no smaller than Ward's and Ward made Kovalev say "Uncle".

    Where is the evidence that head size has an effect on punch resistance? James toney and Bernard Hopkins both had tiny heads

    But doesn't Hergovic have a small head too? Classic flat head from the back indicative of Slavic traits, and he fights beastly heavyweights.

    It's the brain that's important. Has Yarde got a brain?

    a smaller head is harder to hit, if you develop good defense then a small head is a benefit.

    Yeah I agree in Whyte does have as small compared to his frame, I was gonna say Whyte, but I'm already injecting Whyte into every thread.

    But no I don't think Hergovic has a bigger head than Whyte, so I wonder how we prove it?? Becuase I'd win that bet.
