Nam Phan signs with Bellator, meets Mike Richman in Bellator 131 main-card opener | MMAjunkie

UFC veteran Nam Phan (20-13 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) has signed with Bellator MMA and will make his promotional debut against Mike Richman (17-5 MMA, 6-4 BMMA) in next month’s Bellator 131 main-card opener.

Bellator officials tonight announced the bantamweight bout. Terms of Phan’s deal weren’t disclosed.

Bellator 131 takes place Nov. 15 at Valley View Casino Center in San Diego. The main card, including an announced headliner between veteran light heavyweights and UFC Hall of Famers Stephan Bonnar (15-8 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) and Tito Ortiz (17-11-1 MMA, 1-0 BMMA), as well as a lightweight title fight between interim champ Will Brooks (14-1 MMA, 6-1 BMMA) and former titleholder Michael Chandler (12-2 MMA, 9-2 BMMA), airs on Spike TV following prelims on Spike.com.

Phan went 2-6 with the UFC but picked up a pair of “Fight of the Night” bonuses and was never finished despite facing some notable names, including Takeya Mizugaki, Dennis Siver and Jimy Hettes. Following his promotional release earlier this year, the 31-year-old Californian hit the regional scene in Japan and picked up a pair of stoppage victories.
