Gerasimchuk fought in the 2014 Kunlun Fight Super Heavyweight tournament. He knocked out Arnold Oborotov in the semifinals, and defeated Dmitri Bezus by unanimous decision in the finals. He then fought in the 2014 Kunlun Fight Heavyweight tournament. He beat Abdarhmane Coulibaly by unanimous decision in the semifinals, and won the tournament with a third-round TKO of Wang Chongyang in the finals.[3] He followed up this tournament win with decision wins over Sergio Pique and Rico Verhoeven.[4]

Gerasimchuk participated in the 2015 Super Heavyweight tournament, after qualifying to it with a decision win against Ashwin Balrak at Kunlun Fight 18. He knocked out Steve Banks in the quarterfinal, but lost to Hesdy Gerges in the semifinal by split decision.[5]

In the quarterfinals, he beat Bruno Susano by unanimous decision and Atha Kasapis in the same manner in the semifinal.
