On the back of a devastating 17-second loss to the up-and-coming Chimaev, Meerschaert is now willing to do whatever it takes to earn himself a rematch. While speaking to TSN’s Aaron Bronsteter, Gerald Meerschaert said that he will prove that he has whatever it takes to beat Khamzat Chimaev.

Meerschaert added that he has always credited Khamzat Chimaev as a good fighter and expected him to come forward during their fight, which he did.

The veteran Meerschaert, however, admitted that he failed to hold his end of the bargain about offering resistance to Chimaev.

What’s next for Khamzat Chimaev?

After three dominant wins in a row, Khamzat Chimaev is now set to fight top UFC welterweight contender Leon Edwards in December. The fight was eventually confirmed after Edwards was removed from the rankings and is scheduled to go ahead on the 19th of December.
