New Jersey has it, but it was left up to the promoters to provide the equipment necessary to enforce it for a fight. None did, at least not yet.
Here are the basics for it's use in New Jersey, not sure if Nevada will follow the same guidelines.
The innovative New Jersey State Athletic Control Board has announced that effective immediately, instant replay can be utilized during combative sporting contests to review a referee's call or lack of a call. Instant replay will be utilized at the discretion of the lead promoter. Theagency will not force a promoter to utilize instant replay, but will not deny the promoter the opportunity to do so. The agency does not have the technology readily available, so it will be up to the promoter to provide the necessary equipment. The use of such technology would allow the Commissioner to review issues such as:
1. Knockdowns versus slips
2. Accidental versus intentional fouls
3. If a cut was the result of legal strike
4. If a fighter beat the count
5. Low blows
6. Whether or not a strike landed before the bell rang.
The Commissioner, if approached during a round by the contestant's chief second, would review the issue at the end of the round. The bout would be temporarily stopped during the rest period and the Commissioner would have a maximum of three minutes to render a decision or choose to reserve his judgment because further review is needed. Upon the Commissioner's ruling, the bout would then be restarted and would continue.
Oops! [The use of instant replay was adopted on a limited basis and will be at the sole discretion of the referee. Kizer said it will be used only when an injury forces a fight to be stopped.
"An eye poke, a cut, something along those lines," Kizer said. "The cut happens, the fighter cannot continue and the referee makes a call whether it was caused by a punch or a head butt. If he feels the use of replay will help him be sure, he can review it. It's no different than the NFL. If the replay is inconclusive, the initial call stands."
Replay will not be used, Kizer said, to determine such things as whether a knockdown is caused by a punch or was a slip.]
When I read through the article, it doesn't look like Nevada is using it that same way as NY.
Reading the article further, looks like Arum got through to the commission and is allowing Edwin Valero to apply for a license!

Hell if a commission will allow guys like Ali (in 1980) to get a license beyond their real ability to defend themselves why shouldn't Valero get one.
