    Herschel Walker signs MMA contract...WTF?

    http://www.cbssports.com/mma/story/12242977

    The 47-year-old former NFL running back said Monday that he has signed a multi-fight contract with promoter Strikeforce. Walker will begin a 12-week training camp next month in San Jose, Calif.

    What fucking joke. I hope he gets knocked the fuck out and crippled.

      He prays to Chuck Norris at night and has fibers of Billy Mays beard sewn into his fighting trunks. He will go undefeated.

            Even if you are a gators fan, knocked out is one thing - crippled is still fucked up.
            Hell I am crippled and I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy, yet you would over a football team.

                Perhaps crippled was wrong word choice....actually, nah, the rivalry between UF-UGA run far too deep and I have had to listen to far too much shit from him and his fan base. I'll compromise....crippled is out, snap his leg is much better.

                  How exactly is it a joke? He is an elite athlete that has excelled every time he tackled a new sport, including making the fucking Olympics in bobsledding. He's pushing 50 but it's not like they're going to put him in there against top fighters. Good for him and I hope he does well. Just because you are unsatisfied with your life doesn't mean you should shit on those that actually enjoy and live theirs...

                    If he isn't going to fight the best, then why fucking bother? So they can pair him up with a few cans that have not half of his athletic ability? That's pussy. This is a bad move on whatever fighter takes the fight with him. If the fighter beats him, he was supposed to and if he loses, he got beat by an old retired football player. Its a no-win situation. Though Strikeforce will make a mint from PPV sales because viewers will tune in to see him get knocked out or "shock the world."

                    Who said I am unsatisfied with my life, I have always been satisfied to hate him and any other shit that came from University of Georgia.

                      That's pussy? When you get off your couch and do something as ballsy as trying MMA for the first time at 48 then you can call someone else a pussy. You also don't put a guy in there with a top level fighter when he is making his MMA debut, and it's not like Strikeforce will be putting him in any main events. He will be an undercard fighter booked as a curiosity that will be matched against guys with a similar experience level, maybe even another ex-NFL player that is getting his start in MMA, as there is no shortage of them now.

                      Strikeforce isn't going to make mint off Herschel Walker, and at best they can hope for a bit of a ratings boost on the card he is fighting and some mainstream press. Again, good for him for having the balls to give it a shot and testing himself again at an advanced age. Why bother? Because he can...

                        Strikeforce will make a mint because of his name. What's the point of putting him with cans? Why not match him up with someone with the same athletic ability? I am not saying put him with Fedor but man, many of these fighters in MMA have been doing this a long time waiting for their shot but because they did not play in the NFL or have name recognition will not get a shot because Herschel thinks he can beat all of the fighters in his division.

                        The same shit happened with Kimbo. They fed him guys he could and should beat until Seth sent him down for the nap. If Herschel wants to truly fight MMA, cut your teeth on the indie circuit like those that have paid their dues for a while.

                              Walker was my idol in junior high/HS. His work out plan forever was strictly 2000 push-ups/2000 sit-ups daily.. at least that's what he said at a football camp I attended.

                              That became my work out for about 8 months + running. Then I got into free weights(this was in 8th grade, mind you.. )

                              ah.. the days when I was a machine. damn beer and work.

                              With that said, I think he'll do okay. The guy is a horse.

                                  It's Strikeforce, outside of Fedor they're all a bunch of bums. He could realistically have a shot if he trains.

                                      strikeforce sucks.. them adding an aged athlete who's trying to make a few bucks doing MMA sucks... and him getting his ASS pumpled in the first round with a punch to the face will be AWESOME.

                                      go back and collect that NFL pension old man... MMA's not for you

                                            Greece. It was called Pankration, and was a Greek Olympic Sport, circa 600BC.

                                            Modern MMA as we know it now, ala UFC, is from VALE TUDO in Brazil. VALE TUDO in Portuguese means "Anything goes".

That's pussy. This is a bad move on whatever fighter takes the fight with him. If the fighter beats him, he was supposed to and if he loses, he got beat by an old retired football player. Its a no-win situation. Though Strikeforce will make a mint from PPV sales because viewers will tune in to see him get knocked out or "shock the world."

                                                You don't go up against Fedor in your first Pro MMA fight. Calling someone a Pussy who is actually going into the cage to fight... Have you ever fought? When they close that door behind you, there's no turning back. Anyone who steps in to a cage to fight MMA is definitely not a Pussy. "The Man In The Arena" and all.

                                                As for his training, he's a 6th Degree Blackbelt in Tae Kwo do, and has been training MMA for the past 8 years as a hobby. I personally would have fought before 8 years, but to each their own.

                                                  Might as well post it, as it pertains to this thread.

                                                  It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

                                                    Another one...how can you sit on you couch and say that "MMA''s not for you"? Do you personally know Herschel Walker? Have you seen him train? Man I hate when people do that garbage. Do you know there are a ton of ex-NFL'ers on the current season of The Ultimate Fighter?

                                                    Herschel Walker is an elite athlete, and maybe MMA is for him, and maybe it isn't, and maybe he has a good showing or maybe he goes the "Johnnie Morton" route and gets KO'd. But when couch potatoes try and tell someone that is a "doer" and has succeeded at everything he has ever tried that they know something is not "for him" I get really annoyed...

                                                      Well, I did some research and found that he already holds a fifth-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do, so he might not be a pushover.

                                                            I still feel its a young man's sport. My kid has been wrestling since he was 5 years old. He does BJJ, Muay Thai and kettlebells just for fun.

                                                            I can't see an athlete of yesteryear match up with an MMA fighter who has been practicing their whole lives.
