A viral video captured him in an altercation with the fan, identified as Michael Siaw, before matters quickly escalated.
After a bit of tussle between the two men, Allotey grabbed the spectator by his shirt and delivered three jabs to his face.
The said fan sustained a deep cut on the eye, with a separate photo capturing him at a hospital to stitch the gashed eye.
Although Allotey later rendered an unqualified apology to the victim, there were rife calls from the public for him to be sanction.
Following the GBAâs ruling, Allotey will be unable to compete until August, when his suspension would elapse.
