When a participant is down, the timekeeper or alternate referee shall at once commence calling off the seconds, indicating the count with a motion of his or her arm. The referee shall immediately order the other participant to a neutral corner and shall thereafter pick up the count from the timekeeper or alternate referee and indicate it with a motion of his or her arm. If a participant is unable to continue at the count of 10, the referee shall declare the other participant the winner by a knockout.
