Bellator Light Heavyweight Champion Vadim Nemkov commented on the words of Anatoly Tokov that the Russians would not be given title fights in the American promotion.
April 15 Nemkov will meet with the American Cory Anderson.
“I was not told anything about this. Tolik still has such a situation that he didn’t fight for a couple of years before the fight in Moscow, he won for a thin one - maybe because of this they don’t want to give him a title fight in Bellator. I have not heard about the fact that title fights will not be given. Most likely, they will not make the main, as I have now, the co-main fight of the evening. I will believe in this, but I do not believe that titles will not be given.
Johnny Eblin, who is now a middleweight contender, will fight Gegard Mousasi, who also has zero defeats. I think because of this he could have been given a title shot. Maybe because of the situation in the world, they decided to postpone Tolik's fight a little, but I think he will fight next for the title, ”said Nemkov
