    Notice how the best boxers all have wide faces

    Or a high facial width to height ratio. Mayweather, Canelo, Pacquiao, Marquez etc... and the chinny overrated boxers like David Price and Amir Khan have narrow weak looking faces...

    There's actually been a lot of studies on this. Basically men with wider faces relative to the length of their faces have higher testosterone on average and are more aggressive and competitive.



    A really telling study that I read was that men with broader faces are less likely to die in contact violence.... This makes me think about the potential relation this has to a fighters chin and heart..

      Canelo is 40 something and 0 at 23 and Mayweather's face is broad and short.

        That's ridiculous mate, not having a go at you or anything. I don't think that has anything to do with your skills as a boxer. Butterbean had an egghead, so did James Tony, two different classes of fighters in their prime.
