Gerald Meerschaert

Uh, Katlyn Chooza, I'm sure she thought she won, but you know, when it's that close you really can't complain.

Our buddy Gerald Meerschaert lost again.

I hate to see Gerald.

I think it was the second round.

So this fight is definitely considered a don't blink fight.

Oh, yeah, dude, ever since Caldas came back to the UFC, he had, like, a 30-second KO against Michel Pereira, like, a 40-second sub against GM3, and then he got knocked out by Bo Nickal.

But the dude has been in nothing but don't blink fights basically ever since he came back.

So this has, this has don't blink written all over it.

That win's not aging well.

It's a good win.

Like, yes, you are, you, you submitted GM3, but at the same time, GM3 was on, like, a s- he's on, like, a six-fight loss streak before he retired.

GM3 is not that good.

Sadly, we don't get a, uh, fun moment here.

Julius Walker runs through Gerald Meerschaert, TKO's him in round two.

Ah, just, just, ah, just a bummer.

Julius takes down Gerald, TKO's him, gets to round two, takes him down twice, TKO's him.

Eventually Herb Dean's like, "I'm just gonna stop this." Like, good stoppage from Herb.

Just there was no need to keep taking punishment.

So Julius Walker, who was knocked out in eight seconds in June, just got a TKO over, uh, Gerald Meerschaert.

So Gerald will end his career a little lackluster, uh, six straight losses, um, O and two on the year but, hey, you know what? Beat Edmund Shabazzian, Brian Barberena, Bruno Silva, Makhmud Murodov, Dustin Stoltzfus.

That's what I'm...

Um, Julius Walker defeats Gerald Meerschaert, who retires this one.

Man, Meerschaert, you know, I think has done some pretty impressive things at middleweight, obviously.

Yeah.

He was trying to get out of it, but the grip was just too much.

And at the 2 minute and 46 second mark, CLD would ultimately have to tap, handing Brendan Allen the 15th professional win via submission in his career, which was Brendan's eighth overall submission in the UFC and seventh in the middleweight division, placing him at number two all time behind Gerald Meerschaert, who also competed on this card.

And he's tied for the third most finishes all time at 185 with nine, only behind Anderson Silva and the aforementioned GM3.

And he's accomplishing all of this, racking up all of these wins, his 15th, mind you, in middleweight history, second all time in the weight class behind the Hall of Famer Michael Bisping and longtime vet Brad Tavares.

Workmanlike, professional, gets it done.

Julius Walker stopped Gerald Meerschaert in round two, and I want to say something about that because Meerschaert has fought everybody.

He's seen every trick in the book, and Walker just ran through him in the second round.

That's a statement.
