Light heavyweight grand prix semifinal winners Vadim Nemkov and Corey Anderson topped the payroll for Bellator 268.
The Arizona Department of Gaming recently released salaries from the event, which took place at the Footprint Center in Phoeniz, Ariz., on Oct. 16.
Nemkov, the promotion’s reigning 205-pound champion, earned $250,000 for his fourth-round submission of Julius Anglickas ($150,000) in the evening’s main event. Anderson, meanwhile, pocketed $200,000 for a first-round TKO of ex-champ Ryan Bader ($150,000) in the co-headliner. Nemkov and Anderson will square off with light heavyweight gold on the line at an as yet to be determined event next year.
