Haw. Code R. § 16-74-132 - Out of ring

(a) Count. If a contestant falls or is knocked out of the ring during a contest, the referee shall use his discretion in starting to count over the fallen boxer, giving the boxer a reasonable time to reenter the ring before starting to count.

A contestant who falls or is knocked out of the ring may not be assisted beyond the apron of the ring. The apron of the ring is that portion of the ring platform extending outside the ropes.

(b) Opponent. When a boxer has fallen through the ropes, the other shall retire to the farthest corner and stay there until the count is completed or his opponent is on his feet in the ring.

(c) Deliberate. A contestant who deliberately wrestles or throws an opponent from the ring, or who hits him when he is partly out of the ring, and prevented by the ropes from assuming a position of defense shall be adjudged guilty of a major foul, and be disqualified, and in addition may be fined.
