The main purpose of counting is protecting and health of kickboxer • A kickboxer is considered to be knocked down if: • If kickboxer touches the floor with a part of his body other than his feet following a strike or series of strikes. • If after strike or series of strikes kickboxer is not fallen to the floor , but is in a state of semi- consciousness and by the central referee’s opinion , not able to continue fighting. • *In the case of KD, the central referee must immediately start counting out theseconds. • In all age categories knock down should be counted as a minus point [-1] [-1 point in PF and -3 points from each judge in LC and KL ] to kickboxer caused knockdown • Next knock down by powerful and uncontrolled strikes will lead to secondminus • point. • Third knock down by powerful and uncontrolled strikes will lead todisqulification • On the other side , to avoid manipulation by kickboxer who is knock out , the knock out [KO] will automatically mean that he is not allowed to continue participation at same tournament.
