Herschel Walker has worn many hats in the public arena. From Football star to Olympic Bobsledder to competing against other celebs on The Apprentice.

Now at age 47, walker has signed a multifight contract with Strikeforce who looks to challenge The UFC for it’s Mixed Martial Arts audience.

Herschel, a longtime martial artist and sixth-degree black belt in tae kwon do who’s also trained in Muay Thai and Kenpo karate, has hinted at a possible move into MMA for the past few years.

“I’ve been training for several years,” Walker stated. “I would play college football games on Saturday and then compete in martial arts tournaments on Sunday after church. I’m now looking forward to opening up another chapter in my life and to competing in MMA.”

I received this autograph from Mr. Walker in 20 days care of his home address. While he is not yet a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Herschel Walker is a first ballot HOFer in the TTM autographing world.
