Donny Walker Fights for Pinnicle Fighting Championships This Weekend

On June 29th Donny Walker travels to Pittsburgh, PA to glove up and fight for the Pinnacle Fighting Championships this weekend.  His opponent will be Mark Cherico (4-0 Pro).

Cherico is familiar to Cleveland fans for his three quick victories in the NAAFS cage.  One of which netted him the NAAFS 2011 Amateur 145# belt.  If 4-0 seems like a light record to face off with Walker, Cherico's 9-0 amateur record and 100% finishing rate can even the playing field.

Walker and Cherico share one opponent, Billy Vaughn.  Walker finished Vaughn by RNC at 2:58 of the first round.  Cherico submitted Vaughn by armbar at 4:36 of round one. 



Tickets are available through Donny Walker or on the PFC web site HERE
