Hogwarts just got a lot tougher

Josh Herdman, the Harry Potter star better known as “Gregory Goyle,” recently made news for something other than being a henchmen for the villainous Draco Malfoy. The 28 year old Englishman won his first fight at Rise of Champions (ROC) via unanimous decision last week on their April 23rd card. https://youtu.be/VmaQv6WAeWs Herdman took on fellow newcomer Janusz Walachowski at the catchweight of 176, and after 3 – 3 minute rounds under the London based promotion he came out with the win. Josh Herman fights out of Pro Mai Martial Arts Academy in west London where he specializes in striking under Lee Aylet. While Herdman still considers himself an actor first, with a recent role in British independent film “Sink”, he did say he wouldn’t exactly scoff at a UFC contract. Right now he’s content fighting under the Rise of Champions organization and is aiming to return on their November card. Stay tuned for more breaking MMA news.
