After entering "busybox tftp" into google my first hit was
http://www.busybox.net/lists/busybox/2003-February/007972.html 
which describes the tftp options. and which gives this tip

# ./busybox tftp --help
BusyBox v0.61.pre (2003.02.04-12:10+0000) multi-call binary

Usage: tftp [OPTION]... HOST [PORT]

Transfers a file from/to a tftp server using "octet" mode.

Options:
        -l FILE Local FILE.
        -r FILE Remote FILE.
        -g      Get file.
        -p      Put file.



Please consider also looking at the busybox homepage http://www.busybox.net/

This commonly called RTFM (Read the fucking manual)

Best regards
