Stalling or faking

1. A referee shall warn a contestant if the referee determines a contestant is stalling or faking. If, after the warning, the contestant continues to stall or pull punches, the referee shall stop the match at the round's end. 2. If the referee determines if one or both contestants are stalling or faking, or if a contestant refuses to fight, the contest is terminated as a no contest and one or both contestants forfeit their pay. 3. If a contestant falls without being struck, the contestant must be examined immediately by the ring physician. After conferring with the physician, the referee may disqualify the contestant, who then forfeits their pay.
