Yes - that's what I would have done but according to BBBofC rules any of the corner team coming into the ring leads to a DQ of their fighter.
Steve Gray has given his reasons for throwing the towel out (see link below) but I think he's talking rubbish - he simply made the wrong call and could have got Ritson badly hurt.
