ONE Championship has terminated three senior 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 Schieler. The firings come amid ongoing financial difficulties and event cancellations for the promotion. The organization is experiencing multiple problems including fighter departures, remaining fighters competing infrequently, cancellations of major fights and events, and now the loss of key personnel. Industry observers are questioning how much longer ONE Championship can continue operating as one of the world's leading MMA promotions given this trajectory.
