G. If an injury sustained during the fight is a result of an accidental foul and is severe enough for the referee to stop the fight immediately, the fight shall result in a technical decision awarded to the fighter who is ahead on the score cards at the time the fight is stopped only when the fight is stopped after two rounds of a three round fight or three rounds of a five round fight have been completed.
H. There will be no scoring of an incomplete round. However, if the referee penalizes either fighter, then the appropriate points shall be deducted when the scorekeeper calculates the final score.
