Yes, the headbut in the first round was clearly intentional. They were clinched and you can clearly see Nate move his head towards JD's head with malicious intent. The same for the headbutt in the sixth round that caused the cut.
Juan wasn't really using elbows, he was using his forearm to create distance. There is a difference, but both are illegal. And, most of Juan's holding came after the 6th round, when his vision was degraded out of his left eye. Not that it's a good reason to hold, but I can understand.
