Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies
When a boxer is clearly knocked down, he shall be required to take a count of eight whether or not he has regained his feet before the count of eight has been reached. Should a boxer slip, fall down or be pushed, he shall be ordered to his feet immediately. Failure to rise may subject him to a disqualification.
