Jarred Brooks is looking to continue his ascent in the world of mixed martial arts, moving up to the flyweight division after claiming the interim ONE strawweight MMA world title in August. His next challenge will be a showdown with the fourth-ranked flyweight contender, Reece McLaren, at ONE Fight Night 26 on December 6.
Brooks explained his decision to climb to the flyweight class, likening it to the challenge of climbing Mount Everest. He sees his career as a journey of constant growth, pushing himself to new heights. His desire to stay active and fight regularly also influenced his decision, as he’s keen to compete every two to three months. Despite being one of the smaller strawweights on the roster, Brooks is confident that he’ll surprise McLaren with his performance and size on fight night.
With his focus on staying in the ring and continually challenging himself, Brooks is eager to prove that he can excel in a new weight class. Fans in the U.S. and Canada can watch the event live on Amazon Prime Video.
