Vadim Nemkov, already a former Bellator light heavyweight champion, announced his desire to qualify for the promotion's 300th anniversary tournament and challenge the winner of the Bader-Wassell pair.
“I would like to go to the Bellator 300 tournament, where Bader and Wassell will fight. And challenge the champion there to fight. But, again, it is not clear what will happen with the sale of Bellator. Maybe I will remain a champion, ”said the fighter.
Recall that Nemkov decided to move up to heavyweight, leaving the championship belt in the light heavyweight division vacant. The current champion in the heavyweight division is RIan Bader, who will defend the belt in a fight with Linton Vassell. This confrontation will take place on the night of October 8.
