Mixed martial arts promotion company ONE Championship's Co-Founder and Group President Hua Fung Teh said on Wednesday that launching an initial public offering has always been part of the company's plan. 

"We have definitely been in conversations with exchanges, both in the West and over here," he said on a panel at the Reuters Next summit in Singapore. 

Group ONE Holdings, the parent company of ONE Championship, previously floated the idea for a public listing in the United States in 2022 as part of a global expansion drive. 

ONE Championship is Asia's largest sports media player, according to Nielsen, a global audience measurement and data analytics company.
