Bellator Clears Roster of 13 Fighters, Including Karakhanyan, Gonzalez, Carmont

Bellator MMA has done some serious housecleaning in recent weeks, clearing its roster of several recognizable names.

All told, the California-based promotion has parted ways with 13 fighters: L.C. Davis, Steve Garcia, Steve Kozola, Kendall Grove, Georgi Karakhanyan, Fernando Gonzalez, Kevin Casey, Francisco France, Mike Rhodes, Francis Carmont, Phillipe Lins, Ben Reiter and Alexis Dufresne.

In many cases, the aforementioned fighters weren’t necessarily released but are simply no longer under contract with Bellator.
