Giraffes fight like Mayweather vs McGregor
Updated | By Kriya Gangiah
These two bulls were literally at it “neck and neck” but in the end, as we all know, there can only be one winner.
A video filmed by Walter Becker near Mlondozi dam shows to male giraffes going head to head in what looks like a territorial display.
Male giraffes fight with their necks because it's the most powerful and maneuverable weapon they have. Bulls fight to establish dominance or to win the right to mate with the females (cows) in a particular area.

According to Latestsightings.com "necking in their world is the most violent and unpleasant experience they're ever likely to engage in. These fights are very serious, with the giraffes repeatedly slamming their necks against one another with the intent to cause real injury. They use head butts and the horns on top of their heads, known as ossicones, to inflict damage to the soft underbelly. They may also try a debilitating kick with their hooves."
