Ryan Bader took the road less traveled to mixed martial arts stardom, as he traded in his Ultimate Fighting Championship membership card for a free-agent move to Bellator MMA. Three years and two divisional championships later, it appears as though he made a wise choice.
Bader will defend his light heavyweight crown against the surging Vadim Nemkov in the Bellator 244 headliner on Friday at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.
