Kash Ali has had his boxing licence suspended after being disqualified for biting David Price during their fight in Liverpool on Saturday night. The British Boxing Board of Control has confirmed the sanction, which is pending a hearing by the organisation’s Central Area Council. Ali, who admitted to iFL TV shortly after the fight that he had been “stupid”, could face a lengthy ban from the sport. Price accused Ali of biting him on multiple occasions during the contest, before referee Mark Lyson waved the contest off in the fifth round. Speaking on Sky Sports immediately after the fight, former world champion Tony Bellew accused Ali of biting Price on multiple occasions.
