“You are hereby summoned to appear before the Disciplinary and Arbitration Committee of the GBA on Wednesday the 5th day of February 2020 at 1 pm to show cause why you a licensed professional boxer should not be sanctioned not only for gross misconduct but also for bringing the name of the sport into disrepute,” the statement said.

In an interview on Happy Sports he indicated that he will plead with the Boxing Authority to pardon him and not revoke his license.

“I will also plead with the GBA not to revoke my license”.
