How to Watch Bellator 288


Two title fights shoulder the Bellator MMA marquee at Bellator 288 this Friday at Wintrust Arena in Chicago, where Vadim Nemkov defends his light heavyweight crown against Corey Anderson in the main event and Patricky Freire puts the lightweight championship on the line against the unbeaten Usman Nurmagomedov in the co-headliner. The Nemkov-Anderson rematch serves as the final of the Bellator light heavyweight grand prix, with a $1 million prize going to the winner.

Bellator 288 “Nemkov vs. Anderson 2”—which airs live on Showtime at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT—also features a featherweight tilt pairing Daniel Weichel with Timur Khizriev, a heavyweight confrontation pitting Tyrell Fortune against Daniel James and a welterweight affair matching Roman Faraldo with Levan Chokheli. The eight-fight undercard will stream to the Bellator YouTube channel at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT, a featherweight battle between Otto Rodrigues and Khasan Askhabov anchoring the preliminary festivities.
