Former Bellator middleweight champion, Brazilian fighter Rafael Carvalho believes that Vadim Nemkov has a good chance of success after changing weight categories.
The fight between Nemkov and Carvalho took place on October 12, 2019 in the light heavyweight category. Nemkov then won the Bellator championship belt and recently announced his transition from the weight category up to 93 kg to heavyweight due to health problems related to weight loss.
– He is a strong fighter, our fight probably did not take place in the best weight for me (Carvalho moved from the category to 84 kg – approximately “”). Nemkov has excellent chances in the heavyweight division. In fact, he already beat the heavyweight champion in another weight category (Ryan Bader – approx. “”). And he has such a coach, Fedor [Емельяненко], which we can only dream of. I think he guides Vadim very correctly, gives him the right discipline and Nemkov has every chance to beat any heavyweight,” Carvalho told .
