Prediction for the Vadim Nemkov vs Bruno Cappelozza fight which will take place on February 24th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Vadim Nemkov

Vadim Nemkov became Bellator's welterweight champion in 2020 when he finished Ryan Bader. He defended the belt four times but recently relinquished it and decided to pursue a career in the heavyweight division.

Vadim had his last fight last summer against the legendary Yoel Romero and easily defeated the Soldier of God, using him as a training bag for all three rounds.

Stepping up to the heavyweight division is a big test for Nemkov, and Russian fans are a little worried about how it will work out for him. But the good news is that Vadim is a pretty big guy for a welterweight, and now he won't have to go through the exhausting weight training.

As for the upcoming fight, he's the favorite, even though he's making his debut in a new division.

Bruno Cappelozza

Bruno Capelozza is a former PFL champion (in 2021) who has won all but one of his victories by knockout and never by submission. He also almost always loses early (only one of his six losses was on points).

Capelozza had his last two fights against Matteus Sheffield, and they ended differently. In 2022, he lost by a decision, and in 2023, he won a convincing rematch, knocking out his opponent in the first round. However, this fight was later recognized as canceled because the Brazilian blood was found to be doping.

Before that, Bruno Capelozza was on a streak of five consecutive wins, four of which were early.

Bruno can throw a good punch, but the Russian fighter has to make a mistake, and Capelozza has to catch that moment. It doesn't look very believable.

Expert Betting Tips

Vadim Nemkov will choose the fight scenario. In his style, he will first test his opponent with his feet on the face and body in the standing position, and when he drops him (we think it will happen quite quickly), he will finish him on the ground. The second option is also very likely - a knockdown and a finish. Vadim will do what needs to be practiced because, as you know, there are levels in this game, and they are pretty different for fighters.
