The wrestlers who were supposed to take part in the classical style bouts at the State Championship for men and women in Vratsa refused to compete. This became clear from clips posted on social networks, BTA reports.
The specific reason for the athletes' decision has not yet been clarified, but in the video clips it can be heard that the boycott is due to “arbitrariness in the government“. The footage also shows boos, and then chants of "Bulgarians, heroes!", as well as "Resign!".
