It looks like ONE Championship isn’t done making waves as 2018 comes to a close. The MMA organization based out of Singapore made a big splash in headlines just back in October when they worked out a deal with the UFC to release ONE welterweight champion Ben Askren from his contract in exchange for the UFC releasing recently unseated flyweight king Demetrious Johnson. Both Johnson and Askren have since signed new deals with ONE and the UFC respectively.
Added to that, earlier that same month, former UFC and Bellator champion Eddie Alvarez announced his own likely signing with the promotion.
