Lasts 50 seconds at UFC 322 Meerschaert lost to Kyle Daukaus via submission (brabo choke) at 0:50 of Round 1 at UFC 322 on Saturday in New York City.
Impact This was tough to watch. Meerschaert entered as a +390 underdog, so this was very much the expected outcome, but the complete lack of competitiveness is highly concerning. Gerald ate a couple huge blows right that forced him to the mat right after the opening bell rang and Daukaus expertly locked in the choke from there. Set to turn 38 years old in about a month, Meerschaert has lost four straight over the past year. Gerald has been with the UFC since December 2016, but there's really no reason for the company to run him back out there.

Scheduled for Nov. 15 Meerschaert is set to fight against Kyle Daukaus in a middleweight bout at UFC 322 on Nov. 15, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
Impact The 6-foot-1 American will return to the Octagon after losing to Michal Oleksiejczuk via TKO (punches) at UFC 319 on Aug. 16. Meerschaert holds a professional record of 37-20-0 and has lost three consecutive bouts dating back to November 2024.
SEPTEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not competitive in loss Meerschaert lost to Michal Oleksiejczuk via TKO (punches) at 3:03 of Round 1 at UFC 319 on Saturday in Chicago, Illinois.
Impact Meerschaert has never been the most athletic fighter on the roster, but he looked especially slow here. "GM3" couldn't find his offense, which forced him to shoot for telegraphed single-leg takedowns. He did his best to stay in the fight after a big shot landed, but it wasn't long before the referee had seen enough. Meerschaert is a crafty fighter who finds ways to win if he can hang around, but this isn't the first time we've seen him melted by an explosive puncher. The veteran falls to 37-20-0 in professional MMA as a result of the loss.

AUGUST 17, 2025 • USATODAY.COM
Taking on Oleksiejczuk in August Meerschaert will fight Michal Oleksiejczuk at UFC 319 in Chicago on August 16, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
Impact Meerschaert will head into the bout looking to bounce back from back-to-back losses in his last two fights dating back to November, 2024. The 37-year-old American will take advantages in both height and reach into the bout over the younger Polish fighter. The submission specialist will undoubtedly be looking to use the ground game to his advantage in this one, though he must remain wary of Oleksiejczuk's stopping power.

Second straight defeat Meerschaert lost to Brad Tavares via unanimous decision (28-29, 28-29, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
Impact This one played out exactly how many expected, which isn't great news for Meerschaert. Tavares is no spring chicken himself, but he still had a massive edge in terms of both speed and power on the feet over Gerald. Meerschaert entered with 29 submission wins on his resume, but he's never been a great wrestler, as evidenced by the fact he failed on all eight of his takedown attempts. "GM3" simply isn't going to emerge victorious in prolonged striking battles at this stage of his career. He lone offensive headway came in Round 3 when he was able to rack up some control time. The 37-year-old Wisconsin native is 2-4 in his past half dozen bouts and is nearing the end of the line.
