Hesdy Gerges (born February 20, 1984)[3] is a Dutch kickboxer and mixed martial artist. He held the It's Showtime World Heavyweight title between 2010 and 2012. Gerges has competed in the K-1, It's Showtime, SUPERKOMBAT and Glory promotions.
Gerges was convicted and sentenced to 54 months in prison on November 22, 2014, for a February 2011 drug-trafficking charge,[4] but didn't have to do any jail time on the condition that he wouldn't commit a crime in Belgium over the next five years.[5]
Biography and career
[edit]Born in Amsterdam, Netherlands, he began training in kickboxing in 2001. He joined the Chakuriki Gym and trained under Thom Harinck who has also trained Badr Hari. Gerges was a notorious delinquent outside of the ring who, according to Harinck, was even worse than Badr Hari.[6]
On October 17, 2009, at Ultimate Glory 11: A Decade of Fights in Amsterdam he defeated Ruslan Karaev by unanimous decision.
On May 29, 2010, at It's Showtime 2010 Amsterdam he won the It's Showtime Heavyweight title after being fouled by Badr Hari.
On October 2 Gerges was a fan voted fighter to fight at the K-1 Final 16 in Seoul, South Korea. He fought four-time and current champion Semmy Schilt. Although fighting very well in the 1st and 3rd round against the much favored Schilt Gerges lost by Majority decision. Because he was only two points away from a draw and had battered the legs of Schilt like no other fighter had ever managed to do before he was chosen to fight at the finals on December 11, 2010, in a reserve fight against Yusuke Fujimoto. This was Fujimoto's retirement match and Gerges won by TKO (3 knockdowns).[7]
However, in 2011 Gerges was not over impressive in his performances, despite going 2–1 by beating Daniel Ghiță and Chris Knowles. He lost to Rico Verhoeven by a narrow split decision in a superfight at the SUPERKOMBAT Fight Club.
On January 28, 2012, he lost to Ghiță in the rematch, by first-round knockout. As a result, he lost his Showtime Heavyweight Title.[8]
He faced Sergei Lascenko at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2012 in Tokyo final 16 on October 14, 2012.[9][10] He was able to block the majority of Lascenko's punches while battering the Ukrainian with low kicks, and took the unanimous decision victory.[11]
He faced Carter Williams in a non-tournament bout at the SUPERKOMBAT World Grand Prix 2012 Final in Bucharest, Romania on December 22, 2012, and won by a third-round knockout.[12]
At the K-1 World Grand Prix FINAL in Zagreb on March 15, 2013, in Zagreb, Croatia, he faced Ismael Londt in the quarter-finals[13] and bowed out from a broken nose in round three after receiving a flying knee from Londt.[14][15]
He defeated Pavel Zhuravlev by unanimous decision at Final Fight Championship 6 in Poreč, Croatia on June 14, 2013.[16][17]
He joined Glory in July 2013.[18]
He lost to Errol Zimmerman by third-round TKO in the tournament reserve match at Glory 11: Chicago - Heavyweight World Championship Tournament in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, United States on October 12, 2013.[19][20]
He defeated Ewerton Teixeira by unanimous decision at Glory 13: Tokyo - Welterweight World Championship Tournament in Tokyo, Japan on December 21, 2013.[21]
He defeated Jhonata Diniz via second-round TKO at Glory 15: Istanbul in Istanbul, Turkey on April 12, 2014.[22][23]
Gerges won via disqualification when he was attacked while downed by Jamal Ben Saddik just seconds into their bout at Qabala Fight Series #1 in Qabala, Azerbaijan on June 29, 2014.[24][25]
In June 2018, Gerges announced that he had signed a multi-fight deal with Bellator and that he would compete both as a Bellator mixed martial artist and kickboxer.[26]
Gerges will make his kickboxing return during Enfusion 98, when he will face Mohamed El Bouchaibi.[27] Gerges defeated El Bouchaibi by a first-round TKO due to low kicks.[28]
Gerges fought Rico Verhoeven in the semifinals of a four-man heavyweight tournament held at Glory 77,[29] and lost by unanimous decision.[30]
Personal life
[edit]Gerges was born in Amsterdam, Netherlands to a Dutch mother and a Surinamese father. He was raised by his Egyptian stepfather.[31] He is married to women's MMA fighter Denise Kielholtz.[32]
Drug-trafficking conviction
[edit]On February 15, 2011, Hesdy Gerges was arrested in Amsterdam under suspicion of being part of a drug deal involving 128 kg (282 lb) of cocaine.[33][34][35][36][37][38][39]
His half-brother was arrested May 2010 in a warehouse in Belgium that contained 128 kg of cocaine. Hesdy was already out of the picture in the investigation of 2010, but for some reason the investigation had stalled and he was put back in the picture on February 15, 2011. There was no cocaine or any weapons found in Hesdy residence. His trainer, Thom Harinck spoke with the Dutch Metro News on February 21, and outright said, "Hesdy has been framed. He wakes up at 7:30, at 10:00am he trains with me, rests in the afternoon, then in the evening does strength and conditioning and is in bed by 10:00 PM. I cannot imagine that he still would have time for things like this."[40][41]
On February 25, 2011, Hesdy Gerges was released from Belgium police.[42]
At the beginning of May 2011, Hesdy was extradited to Belgium to be dealt with as the Belgian authorities suspected that the trafficking ring was going through Belgium. On May 13, 2011, Hesdy was released again and stays with his claim that he is 100% innocent."[43][44] At a later trial Gerges was convicted and sentenced to 54 months in prison for drug-trafficking,[45] but didn't have to do any jail time on the condition that he wouldn't commit a crime in Belgium over the next five years.[46]
Doping suspension
[edit]On April 20, 2019, it was announced that Gerges failed a drug test prior to Glory 51: Rotterdam. He was issued with an official reprimand. Badr Hari, who faced Gerges at the event, also failed the drug test and was issued with a 19-month suspension after tests on samples provided indicated a violation of Doping Autoriteit Netherlands rules regarding prohibited substances for competitive athletes.[47][48]
