After earning the distinction of alternate in BELLATOR MMA’s Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix following a victory over Gregory Milliard at בעללאַטאָר 257, the 30-year-old Lithuanian will now have the golden opportunity to showcase his skills on MMA’s biggest stage, win BELLATOR gold and move to the grand prix finals. Anglickas’ original opponent No. 10 ranked light heavyweight קארל אַלברעקצסאָן (12-3) will now meet דאָוולעטדזשאַן יאַגשימוראַדאָוו (18-6-1) during the preliminary card. אויך, a bantamweight tilt between undefeated Jaylon Bates (3-0) און Raphael Montini de Lima (6-4, 1 נק) is official, along with a welterweight bout pitting Mukhamed Berkhamov (14-0) קעגן Jaleel Willis (15-2).

The card features a second grand prix semifinal between current BELLATOR Heavyweight World Champion רייאַן באַדער (28-6) און ניט קיין. 2 ranked 205-pounder Corey Anderson (15-5)

Undefeated since joining forces with the Scott Coker-led promotion in 2019, the Anglickas has emerged as the No. 5 ranked fighter in the promotion’s stacked 205-pound weight class. Holding a professional record of 10-1 and currently sporting a nine-fight winning streak that began in 2016, the 30-year-old powerhouse is now in the running for the million-dollar grand prix prize. Team Fedor’s Vadim Nemkov most recently went five hard rounds with former champion Phil Davis, earning a unanimous decision victory en route to punching his ticket to the semifinals. Nemkov has been perfect in BELLATOR to this point, winning all six of his contests including three knockouts and a submission.

לאס אנדזשעלעס – The highly anticipated בעללאַטאָר 268: Light Heavyweight World Grand Semifinals event has become even more stacked, adding a 155-pound bout between two former world champions when No. 3 ranked lightweight בענסאָן הענדערסאָן (28-10) squares up against ברענט פּרימוס (10-2). דערצו, a featherweight battle pitting הענרי קאָרראַלעס (18-6) קעגן Vladyslav Parubchenko (16-2) is set to kick off the main card action on SHOWTIME live Saturday, אָקטאָבער 16 בייַ 10 פּ.ם. עט / 7 פּ.ם. פּט.

Both semifinal matchups for the BELLATOR Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix will top the card at the Footprint Center, home of the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury. Light heavyweight World Champion וואַדים נעמקאָוו (14-2) defends his world championship against No. 4 ראַנגקט אַנטאַני “Rumble” Johnson (23-6), while current BELLATOR Heavyweight World Champion רייאַן באַדער (28-6) faces No. 2-ranked light heavyweight Corey Anderson (15-5) אין די גלויבנס-הויפּט געשעעניש.

Several new preliminary fights have been confirmed as well and are listed below. The preliminary card will stream live on the BELLATOR MMA YouTube channel, SHOWTIME Sports YouTube channel and Pluto TV beginning at 7 פּ.ם. עט / 4 פּ.ם. פּט.

Former champions collide in the desert, as former UFC and WEC lightweight champion בענסאָן הענדערסאָן squares off with former BELLATOR lightweight champion ברענט פּרימוס in a 155-pound bout that is sure to produce fireworks. Both men hold black belts in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and have the capability to finish a fight no matter where it goes. Fighting out of Glendale, AZ., “Smooth” Benson Henderson fights on his home turf but has a tough test in a Primus who is eager to return to the top of the mountain at 155-pounds.

שווער-היטטינג הענרי קאָרראַלעס reintroduces himself to the featherweight ranks, taking on submission guru Vladyslav Parubchenko in the opening bout of the main card. מיט 13 פון זיין 18 פאַכמאַן וויקטאָריעס קומען דורך וועג פון סאָף, “OK” Corrales steps in the cage with another known finisher, as Parubchenko has finished 14 פון זיין 16 victories with stoppages. Both fighters are in the mix within a stacked BELLATOR featherweight division, and with a win, either fighter could find themselves making an immediate impact on the 145-pound rankings.

לאס אנדזשעלעס– BELLATOR MMA’s massive second half of 2021 keeps rolling on Saturday, אָקטאָבער 16, when both of the high-profile semifinal matchups for the Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix take place at the Footprint Center, home of the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury. Light heavyweight kingpinוואַדים נעמקאָוו (14-2) defends his world championship against No. 4 ראַנגקטאַנטאַני “Rumble” Johnson (23-6), while current BELLATOR Heavyweight World Championרייאַן באַדער (28-6) facesNo. 2-ranked light heavyweightCorey Anderson (15-5) אין די גלויבנס-הויפּט געשעעניש.

BELLATOR MMA: Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix Semifinals will be televised live on SHOWTIME at10 פּ.ם. עט / 7 פּ.ם. פּט. The preliminary fights will stream live on the BELLATOR MMA YouTube channel, SHOWTIME Sports YouTube channel and Pluto TV beginning at 7 פּ.ם. עט / 4 פּ.ם. פּט. Additional bouts and ticket information will be announced at a later date.

Team Fedor’s Vadim Nemkov looks to remain BELLATOR 205-pound champion on September 25, further cementing his status as the best light heavyweight fighter on the planet. אין זיין לעצט עקסקורסיע, Nemkov went five hard rounds with former championפיל דייוויס, earning a unanimous decision victory en route to punching his ticket to the semifinals. Should Nemkov defend his belt again and move on to the grand prix final, between Davis—a wrestler by trade—and the power-punching “Rumble,” Nemkov will have showcased his full repertoire as a mixed martial artist in the tournament. Nemkov has been perfect in BELLATOR to this point, winning all six of his contests including three knockouts and a submission.

“Rumble” Johnsonmade his BELLATOR MMA debut in the opening round of the grand prix, engaging in a back-and-forth affair with Jose Augusto before notching another signature “Rumble” knockout in the second round. מיט די נצחון, the 37-year-old made it clear his time away from the sport has not slowed him down, and with wins over the likes of Glover Teixeira, אַלעקסאַנדער גוסטאַפססאָן, Phil Davis and current BELLATOR heavyweight champion Ryan Bader, “Rumble” remains one of the most imposing forces in the entire sport.

A winner in eight of his last ten bouts, Arizona State University’s “Darth” Bader will have a home game as he looks to keep the ball rolling when he steps into the BELLATOR cage for the ninth time, on the road to re-capturing the 205-pound belt he once held. Bader—despite his participation in the Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix—remains the BELLATOR Heavyweight Champion, a title he plans on unifying with the interim-champValentin Moldavksy following the conclusion of the 205-pound tournament. Bader’s storied career has earned him the moniker of a legend slayer, with wins over all-time greats likeפעדער עמעליאַנענקאָ, אַנטאָניאָ ראָגעריאָ נאָגועיראַ, Rashad Evans, and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.

Corey Anderson has made an excellent impression since his arrival in BELLATOR, reeling off two dominant victories over the likes of veteranמעלווין מאַנהאָעףand former ACA Championדאָוולעטדזשאַן יאַגשימוראַדאָוו, both ending via TKO. The Rockton, קראַנק. product came to the promotion boasting an already impressive resumé, previously triumphing over Johnny Walker, Glover Teixeira and Jan Błachowicz amongst others. Anderson’s fight with Bader, his third under the BELLATOR banner, will be his first with the promotion while fans are in attendance.

ופק פייט נאַכט: The Swedish Are Coming!

In a land once popularized in a Tom Green (remember him?) song – “Lonely Swedish (The Bum Bum Song)” – the Ultimate Fighting Championship brings a Fight Night card that will hopefully bring more attention than a song about a Canadian’s ass.

The first FOX card of the new year, ופק פייט נאַכט: שוועדן, brings the national stage of FOX overseas and gives America a glimpse into the UFC’s ongoing overseas expansion. But unlike previous UFC overseas cards, this one is not short on star power. Let’s see if a clear-cut no. 1 contender for Jon Jones’ light heavyweight title will emerge.

Akira Corassani (16-4-1) ווס. סאַם סיסילי (13-5) (Featherweight – 145 לבס.)

This is a matchup of The Ultimate Fighter alumni, with both guys coming off losses and Corassani coming off back-to-back losses to Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier. Corassani’s also been finished early in both fights, while Sicilia is coming off a submission loss. In a crowded featherweight division, a knockout or submission victory would go a long way toward boosting either of these gentlemen’s stock. I like Sicilia to finish Corassani and possibly give him his walking papers after three straight losses.

Winner: Sicilia by second-round TKO

Phil “Mr. Wonderful” Davis (13-2) ווס. Ryan “Darth” Bader (19-4) (Light Heavyweight – 205 לבס.)

Both of these guys are poised for another run at the top of the light heavyweight division. Both of these guys are coming off victories and actually faced each other in college when Davis wrestled for Penn State and Bader wrestled for Arizona State. Davis uses his wrestling to smother opponents and grind out unanimous decision victories, while Bader uses his wrestling when necessary but also has lethal knockout power.

I expect Davis to try and get this fight to the ground early, and if he succeeds I think he can use his reach advantage and athleticism to keep Bader down. Bader must keep this fight standing to have a chance, and I think he will avoid the temptation to avenge his college loss to Davis by engaging in another wrestling match. I like Bader to land more shots and score an upset victory.

Winner: Bader by unanimous decision

Dan “Hendo” Henderson (30-12) ווס. געגאַרד מאָוסאַסי (35-5-2) (Middleweight – 185 לבס.)

Henderson returns to middleweight after a mostly ill-fated run at light heavyweight, including being tossed around like a rag doll and submitted by Daniel Cormier in his last fight. Simply put, if Henderson can’t land his patented “H-Bomb” right hand for a knockout, he’s easily susceptible to defeat.

I think the wars of years past are finally catching up to Henderson. He will go down as one of the greatest fighters ever not to hold a UFC title, but he simply can’t keep up with the sport’s elite any more. He will leave himself open when wanting to drop the H-Bomb, and Mousasi will take advantage.

Winner: Mousasi by third-round submission

Alexander “The Mauler” Gustafsson (16-2) ווס. Anthony “Rumble” Johnson (18-4) (Light Heavyweight – 205 לבס.)

The winner of this fight will receive the next shot at light heavyweight champion Jon Jones, and it would represent a rematch for Gustafsson. He took Jones closer to defeat than anyone else has during their epic 2013 מאַטשאַפּ. Depending on who ask, some people think the Swede actually won that fight.

Johnson is rapidly ascending the 205-pound ladder after knocking out Antonio Rogerio Nogueira and scoring an upset win over Phil Davis to begin his climb. Johnson also has devastating knockout power and if he lands one such shot on Gustafsson, the Swede’s road to redemption is derailed. But I think Gustafsson uses his reach advantage (which is nearly identical to Jones) to keep Johnson at bay and make Johnson go a full five rounds.

Gustafsson’s striking in the 205-pound division is second to none, and I like him to land enough of those to secure a rematch with Jones later this year.

Winner: Gustafsson by unanimous decision
