Brooks has said he is ready to compete with the best in the strawweight division. He even compared Pacio and Adiwang in an attempt to find the better fighter between the two Filipinos.
Both strawweights are stablemates in Team Lakay and have been mentored by Coach Mark Sangiao. Brooks’ words reached Sangiao and he responded in an online press conference.
The Team Lakay head coach also acknowledged that Brooks was just trying to get into the heads of his fighters prior to their bouts.
Mark Sangiao not underestimating Jarred Brooks at ONE: NextGen II
With Jarred Brooks already making some noise prior to his fight with Lito Adiwang, Coach Mark Sangiao knows the background of the American fighter well and insists that Brooks won’t be an easy win.
Brooks goes by the ring name ‘The Monkey God’ and will bring his 16-2 professional fighting record to ONE Championship. He stands at five-foot-three and has won three of his last four fights. Prior to making it to the ONE roster, Brooks competed in the UFC and Bellator.
Meanwhile, Adiwang has fought half of his 16 professional bouts in ONE Championship. ‘The Thunder Kid’ has had only one blemish during his tenure in the organization and has won back-to-back fights since. He is currently the No.5-ranked strawweight title contender.
