-
(a) The referee may stop a contest at any stage if the referee considers it too one-sided or if either contestant is in such a condition that to continue might subject that contestant to serious injury. The referee may give a contestant a standing count of eight and may consult with the physician at ringside to determine whether the contestant should be allowed to continue. (b) If a contestant's eye is cut or a contestant sustains any other injury that the referee believes may incapacitate the contestant, the referee shall call the physician at ringside into the ring to examine the contestant. The physician at ringside shall give an opinion to the referee before the referee renders a decision in the matter. (c) If the referee decides that the contestants are not honestly competing, the referee shall stop the contest not later than the end of the last round. The announcer shall then inform the audience that no decision has been rendered.
