American journalist Dan Rafael reported that the promotional organization Triller Fight Club is delaying the payment of fees for the boxing evening, which took place on May 14 in Los Angeles. The main event of the evening was the duel Sergei Kovalev (35-4-1, 29 KOs) with Tervel Pulev (16-1, 13 KOs).

The organizers of the event initially demanded payment within 75 days of the tournament, but in the end it was decided that the boxers would receive the money no later than May 31st. The deadline was not met, which could mean that Triller will not be licensed to host new boxing events in California.

In the same tournament, Kubrat Pulev (23-2, 14 KOs) beat Jerry Forrest (26-5-2, 20 KOs) on points. Kovalev and the Pulev brothers have not yet received any remuneration for their performances. Forrest, in turn, is still waiting for part of his fee.
