Jarred Brooks wants upcoming opponent ‘Lightning’ Reece McLaren to understand one thing — he’s the boss. Brooks has had a history with McLaren in the past, with the two clashing on social media.
But now that they are scheduled for war in a couple of weeks’ time, ‘The Monkey God’ wants his Australian adversary to know who the A-side is in this equation. Speaking to ‘The MMA Superfan’ YouTube channel in a recent interview, Brooks said McLaren now has nowhere to hide.
‘The Monkey God’ stated:
“Reece and I have had some back and forth on Instagram before, and, you know, he’s telling me, get in the back of the bus. And I’m just like, dude, I’m driving it. And I don’t think he realized that until my name showed up on his plate.”
Brooks will be moving up a weight class to take on the no.4-ranked flyweight MMA contender and wants nothing more than a big win to signal his readiness to compete for the flyweight MMA throne, left vacant by the recently retired ‘Mighty Mouse’ Demetrious Johnson.
Fans won’t have to wait long to see Brooks and McLaren square off in the ONE Championship ring.
