“I like going to the UFC. I've been to Bellator fights, I've been to ON...” — Gerald Meerschaert Quote

I like going to the UFC. I've been to Bellator fights, I've been to ONE Championship fights - I'm not down talking them at all, they're great organizations. But I know the UFC people, I've worked with them a lot, everything goes very smoothly there, and I'm just very happy with where I work. There's a very good potential to grow your brand.

I train to finish from bell to bell.

I've won fights off my back in the UFC. I've had to ground-and-pound guys and choke them. I've had to armbar guys while I'm on my back.

Fighting somebody high in the ranking is important, but getting eyeballs on you having great performances is just as, if not more so important.

Light is the greatest disinfectant in nature and also in organizations.

You don't want to go around willy-nilly suing news organizations. That's probably self-defeating.

I wanted organizations to see me as someone who was capable of being a big league manager. The Red Sox saw that I was capable.

I think I'm just fortunate enough to be able to play with so many great organizations and make an impact in this league everywhere I've been.

A well-run organization turns over 10% of their organizations, including senior leadership. I don't have the heart to do that.
