Didn't like Crocker was gloating like a genuine weight bully after moving up Felix Jr from lightweight to welterweight. But don't think he deserved getting a permanent injury from multiple fouls like a fractured orbital.
Odd thing was Donovan was the much more skilled fighter too and could had likely won without the headbutting, and low blows. Also hitting Lewis 5 seconds after the bell. If he had done nothing after the bell, the doctor would had stopped the fight or Donovan could had stopped him the next round. Guessing it was a stamina issue making him commit multiple errors. While the last minute was just a tactical error. The ref didn't help much either, and clearly had a favorite with the fighter from Belfast.

Donovan didn't need to throw a cheap shot, but he did, I've got no sympathy at all. Everyone knows how it works, It wasn't borderline, Donovan landed after the bell.
