Celebrating Ian Barrett’s Journey: A True Pillar of SN Combat Academy
A Tribute to Ian Barrett: A Loyal Fighter and Mentor at SN Combat Academy
Today, we celebrate a bittersweet moment at SN Combat Academy as Ian Barrett, one of our most loyal fighters and instructors, officially retires from his amateur fighting career. On October 27, 2024, Ian entered the ring for his final bout, capping off his journey with an impressive 5-4-0 record.
Ian joined our academy at 19, right at its inception. Now in his 30s, he has been a constant presence, not only as a fierce competitor but as a dedicated mentor to countless young fighters. Although he never held a championship title, Ian’s loyalty, strength, and unwavering commitment to the gym have made him a true champion in our eyes. He will remain an invaluable part of SN Combat Academy, sharing his expertise as an in-house instructor and guiding new generations of fighters with his wealth of experience.
Thank you, Ian, for all the unforgettable moments inside the ring and your dedication beyond it. SN Combat Academy wouldn’t be the same without you!
