HERRING READY FOR HOMETOWN UFC RETURN

For the first ever UFC show in Texas on April 7th the promotion has brought in some of the best local talent to make their first ever excursion into the lone star state a memorable one.

Included in that local wealth of talent is perennial heavyweight contender, and unique hairstyle aficionado, Heath “Texas Crazy Horse” Herring.

Herring will be making his second appearance in the UFC. Also being his first appearance in his native state in over a decade, Herring has hopes of rebounding off an extremely disappointing loss to Jake O’Brien at UFC Fight Night in January.

Slated to face off against fellow Texas native Brad Imes at UFC 69, Heath must win if he hopes to gain a foothold in the ever growing UFC heavyweight division.

“I’m feeling great,” said Herring heading into April 7th. “I’m excited to get back home and get fighting.”

Heath continued, “Going to the first UFC in Texas, that’s the exciting part.”

"Pickled Herring" better put on a good show or Dana White will be pissed! Now that his new fighter pool is going to be so deep he won't have time to wait for people to develop....put up or shut up time.

Jake O'Brien????? Are you sure that wasn't Josh Kraptrap he was in with last time???
