Former two-division champion Joe Warren, Ricky Bandejas, Roy Nelson among slew of Bellator fighters no longer under contract

Bellator MMA has made a lot of prospect and free agency signings over the last several weeks which has led to a trimming of their roster.

Sources close to the situation confirmed to MMA Fighting that several fighters from the roster are no longer under contract—including former two-division world champion Joe Warren, bantamweight Ricky Bandejas and longtime promotional veteran Derek Campos. MMA reporter Jason Floyd was first to report the news.

Per sources, it’s important to note that not all fighters on the list were not released from the promotion.
