Can a boxing match be legally stopped if one of the seconds throws in the towel or must the referee make the decision?

Haulting a Boxing Match

if any of the seconds throw the towel in the fight is stopped eveen if the ref thinks the fighter can go on the fight is still halted once the towel is thrown in there is no turning back the fight is halted contest is over

I guess it depends on the peculiarities of the rules of the sanctioning body. however, as a "RULE" it is the ref, and only the ref who has the mandate to stop the bout. This is still applicable when the corner throws the towel. The towel is tossed in as an indication that the trainer does not think his fighter can continue therefore the ref will usually stop the bout at this point. This is not necessarily always the case however, if the ref believes that the fighter can continue, he can (and i have seen this happen first hand) have the bout continue.
