Quick read
ONE Championship has terminated three top executives: vice president and former UFC fighter Rich Franklin, senior vice president of competition Matt Hume, and chief operating officer John Suhler. The dismissals come against a backdrop of ongoing financial difficulties and event cancellations for the promotion. The report suggests ONE's ability to continue functioning as one of the planet's leading MMA promotions may be limited. Fighters are leaving the organization, those who remain are fighting infrequently, and major bouts and events are being cancelled. The combination of executive departures and operational problems signals significant instability for the Asian promotion.
