    On one hand I'm not sure the head clashes were intentional because Crocker was leaning in with his head all night

    On the other I did see a flagrant elbow from Donovan a few rounds ago and he was stiff-arming like crazy and that was clearly a very late shot

    And on the other (yes I have three hands) Donovan was dominating the fight, was levels above, and that's a crappy way for him to lose his unbeaten record and I think Crocker was looking for a way out and milked it.

    If the head clashes weren't intentional and they were both to blame that was a crock of **** result

    After a victory like that, does a boxer feel victorious? Like do they gaslight themselves into believing they genuinely won it?

    Donovan needs that IBF ranking back, so a rematch is must.
    Hopefully the IBF order a rematch.

    Donavan has acted like a complete bellend in the aftermath.

    That's exactly what I was thinking. I wont say I'm in a bad mood, but I feel unease after watching that crap. It was really unpleasant to witness.

    Hard luck the punch was after the bell but the points deductions were ridiculous and without them i doubt the disqualification happens

    This result should be immediately overturned, to any fair and balanced outside observer, it's more than obvious the ref was beyond biased, the two points that he docked him were unjustified. This was clear as day corruption at the highest level.

    He had been looking for a way out for a long time. When he felt the punch right after the bell rang, he saw this opportunity and milked it. Disgusting. When you see a ******* looking for a way out the way crocker was doing you have to be very careful not give him any chance to fake a disqualification or something similar.
