Bellator champion Vadim Nemkov shared his expectations for the promotion's Grand Prix semifinal bout with Anthony "Rumble" Johnson on October 16 in Phoenix.
"This is one of the toughest opponents I've had in my career. He's beaten both Phil Davis and Ryan Bader, who I've also beaten, and I'm going to have a really tough fight with him now. I'm preparing for five rounds, five hard rounds. He's basically a knockout artist, a strong puncher, so we're getting ready to work both in the standup and wrestling. We are preparing in all directions to win," Nemkov said.
