Combat Press interviewer Jake Foley recently spoke with Bellator MMA light heavyweight champion Vadim Nemkov. On Friday, Jun. 16, Nemkov looks to continue his impressive run as the 205-pound king by taking out the always-dangerous Yoel Romero. Nemkov last fought on Nov. 2022, defeating Corey Anderson by unanimous decision. The Russian champion silenced the doubters after a disappointing no-contest seven months prior, and he walked away with a one-million-dollar prize for winning the Grand Prix.
Nemkov discusses what to expect from Romero, who would be his next title challenger, a hypothetical crossover fight against the UFC light heavyweight champion, and more.
