  Black Pete - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pete also boxed semi-professionally under the very misleading sobriquet of "Peewee Pete." His boxing career came to an end when he was knocked out cold by an opponent whom he outweighed at least twenty to one: Donald Duck.
Pete would later be cast as an experienced captain and occasional pirate in both his comic strip and comic book appearances.
Pete owns a used-car dealership, and though no longer openly villainous, is still conniving (as well as abrasive, obnoxious, and truculent) and often exploits his good-hearted and somewhat addled friend Goofy.

By 1940, Pete was a front-ranking Disney character -- not in the same league as Mickey or Donald, but nevertheless an instantly recognizable figure with a large body of work behind him.
