Following his UFC Brooklyn win, Bermudez called it a career by placing down his gloves in the center of the Octagon. He finished his UFC run with a 10-7 record and overall 17-9 record with some key win over the likes of Max Holloway, Clay Guida, Matt Grice, and Tatsuya Kawajiri.

The 32-year-old wrestler made his way to 2011’s The Ultimate Fighter 14, where he suffered a defeat to Diego Brandao, but then afterward he got his rhythm by winning next seven UFC fights.
Team Middleeasy wish Bermudez all the best for his future endeavors.
