CHICAGO – The Bellator 288 main event rematch is official after the title fighters made weight Friday. Light heavyweight champion Vadim Nemkov (15-2 MMA, 7-1 BMMA) and challenger Corey Anderson (16-5 MMA, 3-0 BMMA) meet in the headliner with not just Nemkov’s title on the line. The bout also is the $1 million final of Bellator’s light heavyweight grand prix. Nemkov and Anderson fought in April, but an accidental clash of heads late in the third round led to a stoppage when a cageside doctor said Nemkov’s cut was too bad to continue. The fight was ruled a no contest because it hadn’t gone three full rounds. Friday, Nemkov and Anderson finally run it back at Wintrust Arena in Chicago
