UFC’s Kurt Pellegrino to go Inside the Cage…
August 9, 2007 by Sam Caplan
On this Saturday’s edition of Inside the Cage Radio we’re going to talk with UFC lightweight Kurt Pellegrino. Matt and I have become a HUGE fan of this guy, and I am sure you will too after reading Kurt’s story. In his recent interview he goes into detail about how rough his road has been, his friendship with Hermes Franca , and how much his battle at UFC 74 with Joe “Daddy” Stevenson really means to him…
“I was told I would never be here. I was thrown out of my school. I had nothing. If you ever meet me, the first thing I do is smile and shake your hand. And when I turn away I never call you a bad name. But at one time in my life, I hated everyone and didn’t speak to no one. And getting this belt will prove to everyone who said I can’t, that I could do it. I’m on a quest that isn’t gonna stop until I have that belt around my waist and I can tell everyone ‘I told you so.’ ”
If that doesn’t get you fired up to root for this guy, you need to crank up some Slayer and punch yourself in the face a few times.
Listen to the debut edition of Inside the Cage Radio.
