News Bibiano Fernandes parts ways with ONE Championship, advises fighters to ‘think twice before you decide to go there’ PLUS Bonus announcement!

[TorontoTO]

Pretty good pay, but no fights. Promises made, but not delivered. Not allowed to fight anywhere else, even when the promotion isn’t using you. Signing your image rights away in perpetuity. No sunset clause, and championship clauses that are even worse than UFC’s.

There’s a whole list of things wrong with ONE

lol do you think we are ever gonna have those Croatia cards Chatri promised when he signed Soldic

They’ll have the first one a week after their first Seoul event

I'm starting to think that fight promoters are not the best people.

Akiyama is still holding out for that Seoul main event

How do you know all these?

1. Leaked contracts
2. Fighter admissions
3. Noted public observations

There's a tread about Adriano Moraes leaking his ONE contract also.
Besides that, we used to have Will Chope around the forum talking about his ONE experience.
There were other ONE fighters also... But they disappeared.

one appeared to have an unsustainable business model from the outset , not surprising to start to see some cracks forming

 

[SubsmotherLMJVG]

You see the promise of more money and they dangle being an ambassador or a desk job and then you get 14 fights in 11 years and dont get shit on the way out.

All orgs have contracts that favor them, all do dirty sneaky shit but One seems to be the worst. I def wouldnt go there. UFC, PFL/Bellator, BKFC, Oktagon, KSW, Rizin whatver anyone but One.

Put UFC their too. Can't believe one overtake ufc contracts.
