The Ghana Boxing Authority (GBA) has recalled super featherweight boxer Patrick Allotey following the expiration of his six months ban.
Allotey was captured in a viral video punching a football fan at the Accra sports stadium during a Hearts vs Kotoko game following a misunderstanding.
The 29 year old was slapped with a six month ban by the country's boxing regulatory body following a disciplinary hearing. The ban ended more than a week ago with the boxer calling on the GBA to make public the expiration of the ban and his recall.
The GBA in a letter sent to the boxer to officially recall him after serving his ban conveyed its well wishes and and hope events of the last six months would "mark a new chapter" in his career
Below is a copy of the GBA's letter.
