Gerald Meerschaert explains UFC retirement decision

UFC light heavyweight veteran Gerald Meerschaert has officially retired from professional MMA after 60 career fights, ending his 10-year tenure in the promotion. The decision came following a second-round TKO loss to Julius Walker at UFC Vegas 122, marking Meerschaert’s sixth consecutive defeat.

The bout, a featured prelim on the event’s card, saw Walker secure the stoppage victory, prompting Meerschaert to walk away from the sport after a storied but challenging run in the cage.
