He won the English super featherweight title in 2008, and the World Boxing Union (WBU) welterweight title in 2013 before retiring later in 2014. Barrett lost to 2004 Athens Olympics silver medalist Amir Khan via TKO in 2006; after which, he went on to fight for the British featherweight title in 2007.
