ONE Championship fires three top executives amid financial struggles

ONE Championship has dismissed three key executives: vice president and former UFC fighter Rich Franklin, senior vice president of competition Matt Hume, and chief operating officer John Sehler. The terminations come as the Asian promotion continues to face ongoing financial difficulties and event cancellations. The organization has been experiencing a troubling pattern of fighter departures, reduced activity for remaining roster members, and the cancellation of major fights and events. Industry observers suggest these developments indicate ONE Championship may struggle to maintain its position as a leading global MMA promotion.
