(AP)-- The World Boxing Association made broad changes Tuesday in its safety code in an effort to) protect fighters from injury and death in the ring. Ringside physicians were given power to stop fights, the mendatory eight count was put into effect for all bouts, and six- month suspensions were set up for fighters knocked out twice in a row, or twice in three months, Under the new code, adopted at the WBA conv ention, the ringside physician may order the timekeeper to strike the bell twice, ending a fight, whenever he decides that a boxer has taken an unduly severe b atter- ing or is in danger of serious injury. The mandatory eight count |, after a knockdown has been waived in many championship matches in the past, but the new rule makes it effective at all times. The WBA also made the| three-knockdown rule apply to championship matches. When a boxer is flattened three times in a round, the »out will be halted and his opponent awarded a de- cision. No longer, except in aved|N rounds, will a fighter be saved by the 'bell. The WBA ruled that #f the. bell rings while the ref- eree is counting over a fighter, the count will be continued. Another major rule change) provides for four ring ropes in- stead of the present three. Rounds wee cut to two min- utes from three for preliminary bouts. REMEMBER WHEN .. .?
