Bulgaria's top boxer Kubrat Pulev has stated that he does not intend to stop boxing. On his return to Bulgaria after losing the world heavyweight title match to Anthony Joshua, he said he would not make excuses.

"It feels as though I won. I have that feeling. A pretty warm welcome. I did not expect such a thing. For me, this is a loss and I did not expect such a welcome. The match was important because it was for the world title. I feel disappointed I didn't win. When I said that I was fighting for the people - this is true," the boxer said upon his landing at Sofia Airport, BGNES reported.
