Gerald Meerschaert can possibly be the one to dismantle Khamzat Chimaev’s hype in their upcoming contest on September 19. However, it is too early to say so, especially for a fighter who has taken two fights within 10 days and has won both.

Khamzat Chimaev is currently the ‘next big thing’ in the promotion, citing appraisals from various veterans and fans. That said, ‘GM3’ Meerschaert believes that he will vanquish ‘Borz’ and won’t let him compete in October.

It seems to be a dig at Chimaev’s activeness, as the Swedish fighter vows to take fights on almost every weekend. But Meerschaert is a true veteran of the sport, and his experience can bring several new challenges.

Gerald Meerschaert is dismantling Khamzat Chimaev on social media

Three days prior to their middleweight fight, Meerschaert has turned to social media and has lashed at his rival. Well, it is not a heated altercation. Instead, ‘GM3’ has used a hilarious picture to alarm his opponent.

Posting a picture of WWE’s Bone Yard contest between AJ Styles and The Undertaker, Meerschaert hinted that he won’t let Chimaev compete in October. Thus, he claims to hurt his rival badly. Despite that, it can be an absolute opposite scenario for the ‘GM3’.

Khamzat Chimaev has competed in the middleweight and the welterweight division in the promotion. After winning a sensational debut against John Phillips via submission in a middleweight contest, he dropped down to the welterweight after 10 days.

It is no surprise that he won the fight at 170 lb too against Rhys McKee and is set to return at 185 lb on September 19. This will be Khamzat’s first fight against a true veteran of the sport.
