Sean Noakes (born 12 June 1995) is an English professional boxer. He is a former English welterweight champion.
After an amateur career boxing out of Westree ABC in Maidstone, Noakes turned professional in 2022, signing a four-year contract with Frank Warren's Queensbury Promotions. He made his pro-debut at York Hall in London on 20 May that year, defeating Lee Hallett on points in a four-round contest.
Noakes fought Inder Bassi for the vacant English welterweight title at The O2 Arena in London on 27 July 2024, winning the bout via unanimous decision.
He successfully defended his title with a unanimous decision win over the previously unbeaten Mathew Rennie on the undercard of the Zhilei Zhang vs Joe Joyce rematch at Wembley Arena on 7 December 2024.
Noakes made the second defense of his title against Jermaine Osbourne-Edwards at York Hall on 7 March 2025. He won by stoppage in the eighth round. Noakes vacated the title shortly afterwards.
On 18 July 2026, Noakes challenged unbeaten IBF European welterweight champion Kieran Molloy at the Copper Box Arena in London. He lost the fight by technical knockout in the eighth round to suffer his first professional defeat.
Noakes' brother Sam is also a professional boxer.
