With Ryan Bader advancing to the second round of the Bellator light heavyweight grand prix, Scott Coker is ready to get the heavyweight division moving.
Coker spoke with reporters backstage at Mohegan Sun Arena following Friday night’s Bellator 256 event, which was capped off by Bader’s five-round unanimous decision win over Lyoto Machida in the tournament opener. Bader, who is the reigning heavyweight champion, will move on to face the winner of the upcoming matchup between Corey Anderson and Dovletdzhan Yagshimuradov at Bellator 257 this Friday night.
