ONE Championship fires three senior executives amid financial troubles

ONE Championship has terminated three key executives from its leadership team: vice president and former UFC fighter Rich Franklin, senior vice president of competition Matt Hume, and chief operating officer John Scheller. The dismissals come as the promotion continues to face financial difficulties and event cancellations. The post suggests ONE Championship may not continue much longer as one of the leading MMA promotions globally, noting that fighters are leaving, remaining fighters are barely competing, key staff are being let go, and major fights and events are being canceled.
