AKA Teammates Insist Herschel Walker Is Ready for MMA Debut

Bobby Southworth and Luke Rockhold have worked closely with Herschel Walker to help get the former NFL star ready for his Strikeforce debut on Jan. 30 in Sunrise, Fla. And while Walker is a teammate of theirs at the American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, Calif., you truly get the sense from talking to them that Walker's rapid maturation as a fighter has been nothing short of remarkable.

MMA Fighting spoke to the fighters about why Walker is ready to step into the cage at 47 years old and about their respective futures in the sport. Check out the video interview below.
