    The highlight footage makes it look like Louis got absolutely shut out too and there was boo'ing. If the full footage was available I'm certain it'd be considered a robbery on a round by round basis.

    I'm sure I've read that his body language was because he was disappointed in his performance but still felt he had won.

    There is booing but some fights instill boos were the favourite doesn't live up to expectation.

    Well we don't have that footage but out of those that have seen the full fight, the overwhelming majority of cards are 8-7 to either man.
