A. The Oklahoma State Athletic Commission, its administrator or any other employee authorized by the Commission may order the promoter to withhold any part of a purse or other money belonging or payable to any combative sports practitioner or second if, in the judgment of the Commission, administrator or employee:
1. The practitioner is not competing honestly or to the best of the practitioner's skill and ability, or the practitioner otherwise violates any rules or regulations adopted by the Commission or any provisions of the Oklahoma Athletic Commission Act; and
2. The second violates any rules or regulations adopted by the Commission or any provisions of the Oklahoma Athletic Commission Act.
B. Money ordered withheld pursuant to this section shall be deposited in the Oklahoma State Athletic Commission Revolving Fund Security Account. The Commission shall hold a hearing at its next regularly scheduled meeting to dispose of the matter. If it is determined that the practitioner or second is entitled to his or her share of the purse or other money, the funds shall be moved to the Oklahoma State Athletic Commission Revolving Fund and disbursed to the practitioner or second. If it is determined that the practitioner or second is not entitled to his or her share of the purse or other money, the funds shall be moved to the Oklahoma State Athletic Commission Revolving Fund and disbursed to the promoter.
