Phoenix, AZ — Bellator 268 is official, with both light heavyweight grand prix semifinals a go.
In the main event, Vadim Nemkov will put his title on the line against tournament alternate Julius Anglickas. The opportunity awaiting Anglickas is not dissimilar to the one Daniel Cormier took advantage of a decade ago in Strikforce, quite frankly.
We all know how that turned out.
The other semifinal, the co-feature of the Phoenix-based card, will see former light heavyweight (and current heavyweight) champ Ryan Bader take on fellow UFC alum Corey Anderson. The winner will meet the Nemkov-Anglickas victor in the tournament finale.
Also featured on Saturday’s card in Phoenix, AZ, former UFC lightweight champ Benson Henderson takes on former Bellator lightweight champ Brent Primus, Swedish light heavyweight Karl Albrektsson returns, and LFA lightweight champ Nick Browne makes his promotional debut.
