The US national sports governing body decided to revoke Pulev’s license in North America until September 23, 2019- six months from the date of the incident. Until then Kubrat Pulev will have time to complete training on sexual abuse. Pulev must pay a fine worth USD 2.500. On June 22 Kubrat Pulev must return to the California State Athletic Commission again and provide evidence of completion of the course, in order to apply for the return of his boxing license.
