Illustrious Russian heavyweight Fedor Emelianenko said he would support his student Vadima Nemkovaif he wants to go to the UFC. As a reminder, Nemkov is currently the Bellator champion in the light heavyweight division.
“Vadim has his own path, his own career, and, of course, we will support him, because we are all in the same team. If Vadim thinks so, if he wants, then, of course, you can try yourself in the UFC.
Here you need to weigh the pros and cons. A guy needs to develop, he needs to be a champion. How does he see himself: does he want to remain a champion at Bellator or go to the UFC and prove something already there?
It would be interesting to see the revenge between Jiri Prochazka and Vadim Nemkov. They then went to a duel in the same conditions, but we closed the problems that Vadim had. Therefore, I think that the fight would have turned out differently. But that fight was not quite easy for the same Prokhazka, ”Emelianenko said in an interview with Okko MMA.
Recall that Nemkov and Prokhazka fought in 2015 at the Rizin tournament in Japan. The Russian was awarded a technical knockout defeat due to the fact that he could not continue the fight after the first ten-minute round.
