Bellator champion Vadim Nemkov named his favorite in the upcoming rematch of Vladimir Mineyev and Magomed Ismailov.

"It seems to me that Mineyev will win. Vova is breathing well, better than Magee. Demonstrates wrestling defense, plus he has good striking. Maga wrestles well, but he does a lot of unnecessary movement in my opinion. If he fights more economically, he could pull in at the expense of wrestling. And if he fights at an exhausting pace again, it will be hard for him within five rounds," Nemkov said.

Mineev-Ismailov 2 will take place on October 16 at AMC Fight Nights 104 show in Sochi. The first meeting of these fighters took place in October 2018 and ended in a draw.
