Herschel Walker: I’m Going To Become A Fighter
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Herschel Walker could have rested easy after his football career – the 1982 Heisman Trophy winner locked up a got a spot in the College Football Hall of Fame and owned multi-million dollar meat company. But he’s taking the opposite route, choosing to compete in a sport that didn’t exist two decades ago when the 47-year-old former running back was in his athletic prime.
On Jan. 30, Walker will step into the Strikeforce cage in Sunrise, Fla. to face Greg Nagy (1-1). To prepare for his MMA debut the Georgia Bulldog immersed himself in training at the American Kickboxing Academy for nearly three months. A lifelong martial artist, Walker has always challenged himself athletically, like when he made the 1992 Olympic bobsled team mid-way through his NFL career, but men his age tend to focus more on how good they used to be than how much they still have left to achieve.
