Rule 85-4-.20 - Stopping the Contest(1) The referee or the attending ringside physician shall have the power to stop a contest. The referee shall have the power to stop a contest at any stage if he or she considers the bout too onesided, or if either contestant is in such condition that to continue might subject him or her to serious injury. In either case, the referee shall declare the fit contestant to be the winner by technical knockout.(2) Should both contestants be in such condition that to continue might subject them to serious injury, the referee shall declare the contest to be a technical draw.(3) In cases where a contestant receives a cut eye from a fair blow, or an accidental foul, or any other injury which the referee believes may incapacitate the contestant, the referee must call the attending physician into the ring for examination of the contestant before the referee decides whether to stop the contest. Time will be called during the examination.Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 85-4-.20
