If the boxer has not risen from the ring floor before the referee stops the count, the result shall be recorded as a knockout.
(b) Physician.-- When a boxer has been knocked out, no one shall touch him, except to remove his mouth protector, until after the attending physician has entered the ring and issued such instructions as he deems necessary.
