After defending his actions in an awkward Twitter post on Monday, Kubrat Pulev has officially been sued by reporter Jenny “SuShe” Ravalo.
Aside from a brief tweet in which she described the the forced post-fight interview kiss as “embarrassing” and “strange,” Ravalo had been quiet. That is until Thursday came and Ravalo revealed that she had lawyered up with none other than Gloria Allred.
In a press conference that was live streamed on Twitter, Ravalo read a statement that shined light on more details. In Pulev’s Twitter statement he claimed that Ravalo was his friend and even joined him to celebrate after his victory.
But according to Ravalo she had just met him during fight week. Regarding the party, Ravalo claims that she was invited by someone and that Pulev arrived towards the end.

Ravalo also revealed a detail that nobody knew–according to the reporter after she was forcibly kissed Pulev also groped her.
While bending over to gather her belongings, Ravalo states that Pulev grabbed her butt.
In a prepared statement that was also sent to the California State Athletic Commission, Allred said that they have asked the CSAC to suspend Pulev and place the issue on the agenda for the commission’s next hearing set for May 14.
As of now, Pulev has not responded to today’s revelations.
