Eugene Kryn Bareman (born 21 May 1979) is a New Zealand mixed martial arts trainer. He is a former professional mixed martial artist and kickboxer. He is the head trainer and founder of City Kickboxing.
Bareman was born in New Zealand to a Dutch father and Samoan mother, as one of three children. He started training in mixed martial arts to get into shape to play rugby. He studied in law school in Auckland, before dropping out in his second year to focus on fighting.[2]
Bareman had an unassuming career as an amateur kickboxer. He started fighting in local kickboxing tournaments in 2001, and mixed martial arts in 2006. As of 5 July 2018, Bareman fought in 48 fights across different disciplines.[5]
Bareman founded City Kickboxing with former boxer Doug Viney in his local city Auckland, New Zealand in 2007.[6] Bareman and City Kickboxing made their names in 2018, with the successes of their fighters Israel Adesanya and Dan Hooker. After both Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski claimed UFC championships in 2019, Bareman and City Kickboxing were named as the Coach of the Year and the Gym of the Year, respectively, by MMAJunkie.com.[7] [8]
Bareman and City Kickboxing repeated as Coach of the Year and the Gym of the Year in 2020.[9]
