Walker told me that he turned pro in 1955 fighting Henry Parsons in Texas while in the service. He said he fought his early fight career under his birth name of Walter Lee Walker.

Walker was born in 1933 in Miami. Said he defeated Richard Knight in California in the early 1960s. Says it was an upset. Wouldn't explain those 5-years of inactivity.
