Slippery Pete – The 300s

In Case You’ve Been Under a Rock: Peter Barrett is a UFC Fighter

“Dana White is my boss.”

I only got off the phone with our friend Slippery Pete a few minutes ago, but that line is what is sticking in my brain. He survived a rough first round and pulled off a textbook escape from an arm-bar to drag Sang Hoon Yoo into deep waters, grinding the South Korean down while tagging him with straight punches and spinning back fists.

Hell of a fight from @SlipperysWorld but I think the single most impressive thing was somehow getting out of this arm bar. #DWCS @ufc #UFC #MMA pic.twitter.com/ONDH8o4MPX

He sounded a mixture of tired, contemplative, yet completely at easy in the five minutes we spoke. He spoke in the same manner in which he emoted in the cage: this is where he is meant to be. So take a second and enjoy my catch up with the UFC’s newest practitioner of highly calculated violence.

From the South Shore to the Octagon: “Slippery” Peter Barrett Gets His Shot at the UFC On #DWTCS

LETTT’S GOOOO. Fans of the site will remember Peter Barrett, who was nice enough to give us some of his time just before his last fight at Cage Titans XLIV. Well it turned out he gave us more time than Cage Titans because he knocked his opponent the fuck out in what felt like 2 minutes.

That performance was good enough to get Barrett a shot on Dana White’s Tuesday Night Contender Series. He fights Sang Hoon Yoo tomorrow night for a shot in the big time. A couple weeks back as “Slippery” made his final prep, your boy Joey B got to hop in the cage with the man himself to talk a thing or two and chop it with him about his start in MMA, his career so far, and the biggest fight of his life. Enjoy.
