For Zaccheaus Jarrow, stepping into the ring at Battle of the Badges 2025 isn’t just about representing his fire department — it’s about breaking barriers and rewriting the narrative.

Zaccheaus, a proud member of the Hammond Fire Department, is fighting for more than victory. He’s fighting to send a powerful message to millions of people who’ve ever been underestimated.

“I have autism — and I’m going out there to show everyone else who does, you can do this too.


💥 Fighting for Purpose, Not Just Points

Zaccheaus may wear gloves like the rest of the fighters, but his mission runs deeper. He’s not just lacing up for a title or a spotlight — he’s stepping in to prove that autism doesn’t define limitations.

He’s fighting for representation, for inclusion, and for the belief that strength takes many forms.

This year, he’s proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the bravest first responders in the state — while also standing tall for an often overlooked community.


🧠 What Fans Don’t Know

“Most people don’t know I have autism. But I’m proud to represent not just Hammond Fire — but everyone out there who’s been told what they can’t do. I’m here to prove what we can do.”

Zaccheaus is fighting with fire in his heart and a mission on his shoulders. His presence in the ring represents a new kind of courage — one that inspires hope.


💪 Bold Prediction for Fight Night?

“I’m gonna win by knockout.”

Confident. Calm. Committed. Zaccheaus is showing up to make a statement — in the ring and far beyond it.


🔥 A Fighter You’ll Never Forget

Zaccheaus Jarrow reminds us that the real battle isn’t always just between two fighters. Sometimes it’s about proving to yourself — and the world — that you belong on the biggest stage.

And on Fight Night, he’s ready to give it everything he’s got.
