Is ONE Championship struggling?

[MacGowan]

Stumbled over some tweets "translating" a piece Japanese MMA veteran Shinya Aoki wrote for AbemaTV (Apparently a big Japanese video streaming website.):

"Shinya Aoki wrote a short essay for Abema, noting that "survival" is likely to be the theme for ONE Championship in 2020. Notes that low view numbers and the postponement of the next ONE Japan card are red flags and that fighters should expect there to be a round of cuts in 2020"

I was wondering if anyone knows more about this or perhaps reads Japanese and can give us some more insight in what Shinya actually wrote.

Could this mark the beginning of the end for ONE?

One championship is growing day by day and expanding its fan base outside asia now. You can see ther outreach on social media as well. They are the next big thing and its just a matter of time till One championship will be a direct competitor of UFC. Soon UFC will start to lose its market share.
