Identification Help Needed

Look at the attached pics and render an opinion, Mad Ground Boas or Dumerils? They are purported to be the former w/some pretty solid history backing it up but I've gotten some opinions that they're Dumerils. Looking for educated opinions.These are 6' animals.
Thanks,
Bill

Dumerils Boas. Look at the head scales. These have the small granular head scales. MGB's have large plate like scales on the head.

Can you get a closer head shot of the two?
