Bellator Light Heavyweight Grand Prix final bout between champion Vadim Nemkov and Corey Anderson will take place on April 15 at Bellator 277. This was officially announced by the promotion.

Nemkov (15-2) made two successful defenses of his title last year, defeating Phil Davis and Julius Anglikas in the quarter-finals and semi-finals of the Grand Prix, respectively.

Anderson (16-5) in the first stages of the tournament met with Dovletdzhan Yagshimuradov and Ryan Beidr - the American defeated both by technical knockout.

It's worth adding that Bellator 277 will headline AJ McKee's featherweight title fight against Patricio Freire.
