<!-- Unless this next sentence is sourced, it's completely inappropriate.
According to many observers (Greek and non-Greek alike) and specialists, he deserved to win the gold, instead of [[Demosthenes Tampakos]].{{fact}}-->
In the same [[Olympic Games]] Jovtchev won bronze in the men's [[gymnastics floor|floor exercise]] with a score of 9.775. In 2000 Olympics in Sydney he won the bronze on both floor exercise and still rings with 9.787 and 9.762 respectively.
He also won two World Championship Bronze medals in the all around (1999, 2001).
He has competed in many [[Sasuke (TV series)|SASUKE]] tournaments, and once reached the final stage in the 8th competition, but he did not pass the spider climb in the first 15 seconds, so the walls spread apart and he fell. He is the only competitor to not pass the spider climb in this version of the final stage, other than Shingo Yamamoto who did not complete it due to injury, but his early failure could be attributed to the heavy rain during the entire competition. Since then he has not passed the third stage.
