Bellator Light Heavyweight Champion Vadim Nemkov spoke out about a potential rematch between his illustrious mentor Fedor Emelianenko and Ryan Bader.
"Time will tell. There will be a powerful fight, of course. If Fedor enters the fight [against Bader] in the same form as in the fight with Timothy Johnson, then he will win against many, ”Nemkov said.
On January 30 at Bellator 273, Bader defeated Valentin Moldavsky via unanimous decision to retain the heavyweight title. After the fight, Emelianenko asked Bellator to meet with the American, but the management made their choice in favor of Cheick Kongo.
Recall that in January 2019, Bader knocked out Emelianenko in the first round.
