Fans loving Jarred Brooks “doing side quests” ahead of interim world title matchup against Gustavo Balart at ONE Fight Night 24
Former ONE strawweight MMA world champion Jarred Brooks is having fun ahead of his interim world championship clash against Gustavo Balart on August 2 at ONE Fight Night 24, which will take place inside the legendary Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Brooks was recently seen doing social media manager tasks at the photo shoot of the event, and they captioned the short clip with:
"Going viral 😂 How will Jarred Brooks manage the power of Gustavo Balart when they throw down for the ONE Interim Strawweight MMA World Championship at ONE Fight Night 24 on @primevideo? @themonkey_god"
In the video, 'The Monkey God' hilariously took a video of him instead of the fighter who is being taken a picture of. This funny sequence delighted the fans and users @escobarthefighter, @xolxoja_01, @yakisobaa_, @maxwell_sherrod, @lowkickspamfan, and @wargarden.us joined the amusing moment, as they commented:
"@themonkey_god doing side quests while also about to reclaim his world title."
"This is a great video😂"
"Hes getting the greats shots if you ask me"
"Bro is a meme! 😂❤️ @themonkey_god"
"Nailed it!"
"😂😂 He does have the camera skills tho if you don't know"
Jarred Brooks looking to get past Gustavo Balart to set up trilogy fight with Joshua Pacio
The 31-year-old American MMA superstar is planning to book a third date with reigning ONE strawweight MMA world champion Joshua Pacio, who is currently recovering from an ACL injury, with a win over Balart on fight night.
The Mash Fight Team representative is the only eligible fighter to capture the 26-pound golden belt after the former Olympic wrestler failed to make weight and hydration.
Furthermore, Brooks is hoping to collect his fifth win under the world's largest martial arts organization.
ONE Fight Night 24 will air live and free to all Prime Video subscribers in North America on August 2 during U.S. primetime.
