Sherdog.com confirmed the cuts with a promotion following an initial report from MMAjunkie.com.
Jansen, 36, ends his promotional tenure on a two-fight losing streak. He dropped a five-round verdict to then lightweight champion Will Brooks at Bellator 136 before suffering a unanimous decision loss to Marcin Held in his most recent outing at Bellator 155. Prior to that, “The Fugitive” had won seven straight contests within the California-based promotion.
Richman, meanwhile, had been with the organization since 2012 and finished six of his victories by knockout or technical knockout. After losing a unanimous decision to Eduardo Dantas at Bellator 137, “The Marine” tested positive for steroids and is in the process of serving a two-year suspension from the California State Athletic Commission.
