Ryan Bader is ready to defend his light heavyweight throne after nearly three years in a higher weight class.
Bellator MMA returns this week with Bellator 244. The card is headlined by a light heavyweight title fight as Bader will put one of his two belts on the line against surging challenger Vadim Nemkov.
This marks the first fight of 2020 for Bader (27-5, 1 NC), who is on a historic run that has seen him capture the promotion’s 205-pound and heavyweight championship belts.
