Quick read
ONE Championship has fired three senior executives: vice president and former UFC fighter Rich Franklin, senior vice president of competition Matt Hume, and chief operating officer John Shuler. The dismissals come amid ongoing financial difficulties and event cancellations for the Asian-based promotion. The post suggests ONE Championship is facing significant operational challenges, with fighters leaving, decreased activity for remaining athletes, and canceled major bouts and events. These executive departures represent a major shake-up in the promotion's leadership structure during a turbulent period. Questions are being raised about the long-term viability of ONE as a leading MMA organization.
