Respect your opponent, grow fighter iq
The referee will protect the fighters from getting injured by regualting the contact between both opponents, however if the fighter is being overly aggressive and/ or emotional, a disqualification and a “no contest” could be given to both fighters. This is to ensure safety from any potential injuries. Judges and Referees are critically looking for technique. A 3rd round could be given to athletes who are tied for overtime, to break an even score. This typically happens to more experienced fighters since they can control themselves better. If anyone looks at risk of injury, warnings, or stoppages can happen.
