  Head butt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Head butting is a fighting technique that uses the cranium to strike an opponent to cause injury or a knockout.
Head butting is part of the traditional Inuit culture: "When Atanarjuat wins away Oki's promised wife-to-be, the beautiful Atuat, in a head punching competition, Oki vows to get even." This is an Inuit legend made into a movie called "Atanarjuat, The fast runner".
In boxing, a head butt is illegal and if it is done intentionally the fighter that did it is subject to a point-deduction.

Forrest said after the head clash with Mosley that he saw blood dripping from Mosley's head and immediately thought of the first Frank fight and the disappointment of having it stopped.

 09.14.98 - Common picture of head-butting in dome-headed dinosaurs is wrong, says UC Berkeley paleontologist
Bighorn sheep, for example, have a broad head, spreading horns and air-filled (pneumatic) chambers in the skull to absorb head-to-head blows; a strong neck; and horns that get entangled so that contact becomes a feat of strength with pushing and shoving.
For example, in many pachycephalosaurs the dome is high and narrow, or round like a bowling ball, making it likely two animals making head to head contact would cause serious injury or death.
In addition, the bone structure is highly vascular, as shown by a honeycomb structure of primary bone and vascular canals perpendicular to the surface of the dome.

They said they gave weight to the fact that while what he was ordered from the field for what was described as striking with the head, the blow actually struck was of entirely minimal force.
The touch judge indicated that there was no option but to send Tuiali'i from the field and he so recommended to the referee who ordered Tuiali'i off.
He made the point, however, that the striking of the Stormers player was little more than a touch to that player's face brought about, he said, as a result of an unacceptable comment made to him and his desire, as he put it, to show that he was not intimidated.

 Holyfield tops Rahman after head butt - baltimoresun.com
An accidental head butt by Holyfield in the seventh round, which followed one in the fourth, appeared to cause a baseball-sized welt on Rahman's head, leading to the fight's stoppage by referee Tony Orlando, after consulting with ringside doctor Howard Taylor at 1:40 of the eighth.
Shortly after being pushed to the canvas by Rahman in the seventh round, which Orlando ruled a slip, Holyfield drove Rahman to the corner with a series of punches but also clipped the younger fighter with his head.
A round later, the large welt quickly materialized on Rahman's forehead over his left eye, forcing Orlando to halt the bout and take Rahman to visit Taylor in the neutral corner.
