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.〔("It's Showtime Reports from the Netherlands : Interview with Hesdy Gerges" ), Fumiyasu Endo, May 19, 2010, ''J Sports Press'' 〕 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).〔("K-1 World GP 2010 Final : Bout 6 : Superfight - Hesdy Gerges vs. Yusuke Fujimoto" ), December 11, 2010, ''Sports Navi - Yahoo!

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.
