Quick read
ONE Championship has terminated three key executives: vice president and former UFC fighter Rich Franklin, senior vice president of competition Matt Hume, and chief operating officer John Sheler. The dismissals come amid ongoing financial difficulties and multiple event cancellations plaguing the promotion. The organization is experiencing a troubling trend with fighters departing, reduced activity for those who remain, and the cancellation of major fights and events. Industry observers are questioning the long-term viability of ONE Championship as a leading MMA promotion. The executive shake-up signals deeper structural problems within the Asian-based organization.
