Haw. Code R. § 16-74-131 - Method of counting
(a) In case of a
knockdown the timekeeper shall immediately start counting off the seconds over
the P.A. system. The timekeeper shall continue his count until the count of
eight has been given. The referee, after directing the opponent to a neutral
corner, shall pick up the count from the timekeeper as soon as possible and
shall audibly continue the count, marking off the passing seconds by the
downward motion of his arm, indicating the end of each second, until the count
of eight is completed or until the boxer has been counted out at the end of ten
seconds, or the bell ending the last scheduled round has sounded.
(b) If the contestant taking the count is
still down when the referee calls the count of "ten", the referee shall wave
both arms to indicate that the contestant has been knocked out and shall raise
the hand of the opponent as the winner.
(c) If the round ends during the count, the
timekeeper shall sound the gong, thus indicating the termination of the
three-minute round. However, the contestant who is down will continue to be
counted out unless it is the last scheduled round of the bout. A contestant can
only be saved by the bell in the last scheduled round.
