Herschel Walker’s MMA Debut Set for January 2010
Heisman winner Herschel Walker, 47, will make his MMA debut Jan. 30 at BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Fla. Story to come shortly.
No word as of yet on who Walker’s opponent will be but one can assume he’s not going to get thrown into the deep end in this (or any) of his fights.
