'The Monkey God' Jarred Brooks was one of the hottest new signees by ONE last year and it's for a good reason. The former UFC and Bellator fighter is a nightmare to deal with in the cage. His untoppable wrestling and earth-rattling slams even gave UFC Champion Deiveson 'Deus Da Guerra' Figueiredo major problems.

His utter decimation of Lito 'Thunder Kid' Adiwang in his ONE debut last year encapsulates Brooks' potential to be a champion in the promotion. His sophomore bout in ONE Championship, however, will not be a walk in the park.
Across the cage from Brooks will be the streaking former Shooto fighter Hiroba Minowa. The 22-year old prodigy from Japan is on a six-fight winning streak and is not looking to stop.
Minowa has proven to hold his own against veterans like Alex Silva and the aforementioned Adiwang, showing his grit and toughness.

ONE Championship strawweight star Jarred Brooks called out Hiroba Minowa after his debut
In November of last year, after dominating and submitting the highly touted Lito Adiwang inside two rounds, Brooks put the entire division on notice. While on the mic talking to Mitch Chilson after the fight, the American specifically asked for Minowa:
"I think Hiroba Minowa is on my list next. We were supposed to fight November 12. This is two fights that he hasn't been able to fight with me so yeah, Hiroba Minowa, I think that you should step in this cage with me and let's do a little dance."
Brooks got what he wanted. He is now set to face the Japanese prodigy in the opening fight of the main card of ONE: Only The Brave.
The American grappling powerhouse was confident enough to call out Minowa and come fight night, we'll see if he'll deliver.
