He claimed that the 33-year-old had tainted Ghana’s hard-earn reputation in boxing and must focus on hoisting the flag of Ghana high again by returning to the gym to prepare for another bout.

“He went in for the money, he has no excuses, he was well beaten and he should come and do his homework well,” the boxing legend told Graphic Sports.

He also urged Gameboy to admit and learn his defeat in order not to make such errors in his subsequent fights.

Tagoe lost in a unanimous decision to American boxer Ryan Garcia in the United States on April 9.

Following the loss, Gameboy made excuses that he injured his right hand prior to the bout but still had to fight.
