The license of Bulgaria’s best professional heavyweight boxer Kubrat Pulev in California was temporarily suspended. Pulev will be required to appear before the Californian State Athletic Commission to explain his actions surrounding his behavior during a post-fight interview with US reporter Jennifer Ravalo (Jenny SuShe). Pulev concluded an interview with Jenny SuShe  by grabbing her face and kissing her on the lips. Before Pulev will be licensed to fight in California again he must appear in front of the commission and demonstrate that he will conform to the principle of respect. Kubrat Pulev’s manager Ivaylo Gotsev said there is zero possibility for his license to be suspended and said that the scandal is part of the show business in California. Pulev’s next fight is expected to be held in New York.
