Such physician may also require that the\ninjured boxer and his manager remain in the ring or on the premises or\nreport to a hospital after the contest for such period of time as such\nphysician deems advisable.\n 3. Such physician may enter the ring at any time during a boxing or\nsparring match or exhibition and may terminate the match if in his\nopinion the same is necessary to prevent severe punishment or serious\nphysical injury to a contestant.\n * NB Repealed September 1, 2016\n
