Short Biography

Patrick Joseph "Pat" Barry (born July 7, 1979) is an American kickboxer and former mixed martial artist who competes in the Heavyweight division. Known for his devastating kicks, and his low kicks in particular, Barry began practicing Sanshou while a college student and won numerous titles at domestic and international level before joining K-1 in 2005 where he competed for two years, mostly as a participant on the promotion's North American events. In 2008, he embarked on a career in MMA, winning his first three fights by knockout before signing a contract with the Ultimate Fighting Championship and competing in the promotion for the next five years as a Heavyweight, compiling a 5–7 record with only one of the matches going the distance. Barry retired from MMA in late 2013 and returned to kickboxing the following year, joining Glory.
