In the event of a knockdown the referee shall send the standing fighter to a neutral corner and administer a mandatory eight count to the downed fighter. When a fighter is knocked through the ropes and off the platform of the ring and onto a table or the floor by a legal blow or blows, the fighter will receive a mandatory 18 count and must be standing before the count of 20. There is no standing eight count. A fighter who has been knocked down cannot be saved by the bell in any round, including the final round.
