Jarred Brooks says Gustavo Balart finish is inevitable: “Submission or KO, anything that comes”

Whether it's by knockout or submission, Jarred Brooks plans to finish things in spectacular fashion at ONE Fight Night 24 on Prime Video.

Five months removed from his shocking DQ loss to Joshua Pacio at ONE 166 in Qatar, 'The Monkey God' will return to the legendary Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok for an interim ONE strawweight MMA world title clash with streaking Cuban standout Gustavo Balart.

Asked how he sees things ending in his highly anticipated title tilt with Balart, 'The Monkey God' said:

"Man, this is martial arts,' Brooks told Sportskeeda MMA in an exclusive interview. "It’s like a dice, man. You roll the dice every time that you go in there. So Gustavo, pick which one, and I’m gonna do it to you, submission or KO, anything that comes."

While Jarred Brooks is coming off his first career loss inside the Circle, 'El Gladiador' rides into the Mecca of Muay Thai on a four-fight win streak.

Gustavo Balart ready to make the most of his moment against Jarred Brooks

After kickstarting his ONE Championship run with three straight losses, Gustavo Balart turned the page at ONE: Battleground in 2021, scoring a big decision victory over Ryuto Sawada.

Since then, he's added three more wins to his resume—none bigger than his win over fourth-ranked strawweight MMA contender Hiroba Minowa at ONE 165 in Tokyo.

If Balart scores the biggest win of his combat sports career at ONE Fight Night 24, he'll set the stage for a title unification clash with current undisputed strawweight MMA titleholder Joshua Pacio.

Will Jarred Brooks end Balart's unbeaten streak and book a trilogy fight with 'The Passion,' or will 'El Gladiador' strap championship gold around his waist for the first time on martial arts' biggest global stage?

ONE Championship fans in the United States and Canada can watch ONE Fight Night 24 live and for free via Amazon Prime Video in U.S. primetime on Friday, August 2.
