Their heads aren't turning to the left. In fact, the third animation even shows the fighter's head moving slightly to the right. They're either locked into a position, moving forward, or, in Guy's or Balrog's cases(to name a few), rotate in the opposite direction.
The second animation in your post is acceptable because his head rotates downward and to the left(in a resistant motion) as his body rotates to the right.
Trust me, a head rotation to the left is strange. Go through the motion in real life. Hitmonchan's right(our left) shoulder also doesn't visibly move at all, when, in fact, that's the part that should be moving. In this case, look at Ryu's right arm. His forearm isn't moving on its own. Most of the movement is from his shoulder. Simply moving his forearm back is not natural.
It's cool if you don't want to edit it. I'm just saying that motion isn't natural at all. I'd like to think I know more than a few things about boxing; trying to throw a jab with those motions in real life, it's actually difficult to make my head and right arm move that way. You don't even particularly need to edit it, though; it should look passable to most people anyway.
Off of the top of my head, Yooka's eye irises are too readable to match, some of the shaping and shading is too good and the dark green needs to be darker.
