They don't have champions clauses keeping them with Bellator, only clauses that allows Bellator to match other offers first.
This is from the thread about Eddie and Hector being free agents, 2nd paragraph:

“It’s coming up on four years and that’s the length of the deal when you win world titles and the extensions are done. We don’t have any champion’s clauses in our contracts, which locks guys in for life, so those contracts are going to come to an end. You’re going to have a brief exclusive negotiation period, and when that ends you’re going to have the right to match an offer that anybody else would make, and we’ve got the right to match.”
