Bellator light-heavyweight Corey Anderson has called for the winner of the upcoming Bellator Light-Heavyweight title fight between champion Vladim Nemkov and top contender Phil Davis.
Speaking at the post fight press conference following his victory in the main event of Bellator 251 against Melvin Manhoef, Anderson shared that while he wants to take some time off once he is back he is looking to fight for the title.
“Phil Davis and Nemkov the two fighting for the belt, I see they fighting, I want the winner there’s no reason why I shouldn’t get it,” Anderson said. “Bader is going up to Heavyweight to defend his belt so if he was staying at 205 I’d fight him but he’s gone. Lyotto just lost so why would I fight a loser I want somebody winning.”
When asked what he thought of the title matchup between Nemkov and Davis, Anderson said that he expect it to be a similar result to their first fight.
“We already seen Nemkov beat him once so I think he just got better he’s gonna do the same thing so technically I want Nemkov but if Phil wins I want Phil,” Anderson explained. “I want the belt, I want that belt on my wall I’ve been dreaming about it. I want that belt over my tv when I wake up in the morning everyday I see it, I did that.”
Anderson made the move to Bellator as the #4 ranked fighter in the UFC after suffering a loss to now Light-Heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz. Following this Anderson and the UFC were unable to come to terms on financial compensation and after an injury sidelined him Anderson was let go from the company.
Shortly after this Anderson announced his move to Bellator making his debut at Bellator 251 where he would find the finish via TKO in round number two.

Anderson donminated his way through the first round securing multiple takedowns and landing ground and pound without receiving any damage back. As the second round began Anderson looked to do more of the same taking down Manhoef and landing more ground strikes until he was able to get the finish later in the round.
This debut sets Anderson up to fight for the title of the Bellator light-heavyweight division in the near future, a title that is currently held by Vadim Nemkov after he defeated former double champ Ryan Bader earlier this year.
After suffering a defeat to UFC Light-heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz, Anderson was let go by the company as the pair were unable to come to financial agreements.

UFC president Dana White has claimed Corey Anderson left the promotion and signed with Bellator in order to be more competitive. Anderson was recently granted his release from the UFC an immediately signed with the promotion’s biggest rivals. ‘Overtime’ has spoken out about his decision which he says was largely due to financial factors.
“I’m No. 4 in the world, and I’m making money like it was my fourth fight in the UFC.”
“I used to say I don’t care about the money, that I’m fighting to be the best and I don’t need the money,” Anderson said. “After hanging out with [Cormier], he broke something to me. He said, ‘You know how you say you don’t fight for money? When was the last time you got in a street fight? You don’t fight for free. You fight to pay for your family.’
“I said, ‘Let’s see if we can get a little more money for the fight.’ And the UFC wouldn’t budge. I asked for my release, and they said, ‘All right, we’ll release him,’ in 20 seconds. I’ve got no anger toward the UFC, but this is how I know my worth to them.”
Speaking to press post-fight at UFC Vegas 7 White claimed Anderson had left the UFC in order to be more competitive, he said.
“First of all, it’s the right move for him. This isn’t something that we’ve never done before. I think that he feels, and we feel, that he can be more competitive there”. (Transcribed by MMA Junkie)
Anderson has since responded on social media, calling White a liar and calling out those staying quiet and allowing the UFC boss to lie about him, he wrote.
“It doesn’t bother me that he’s still lyin on my name. Anyone who knows me or knows MMA knows this isn’t true. But what doesn’t sit right with me is the people I consider close to me who have power that knows this isn’t true are sitting quiet. Just know I see you. #thataintloyal”
