ONE interim strawweight MMA world champion 'The Monkey God' Jarred Brooks of the United States just wants to prove to everyone who is doubting him, that he's the best fighter in the world.

Brooks lives to prove doubters wrong, and he does it with every performance. Today, he is widely considered one of the greatest strawweight fighters in the world. But when he steps back into the ONE Championship ring next week, it will be to prove that he can replicate his success in a higher division.

The 31-year-old Mash Fight Team representative is moving up to flyweight to face Australia's 'Lightning' Reece McLaren in a pivotal showdown with heavy world title implications.

Speaking to YouTube channel, The MMA Superfan, in a recent interview, Brooks said he wants to silence his haters by putting on another performance of a lifetime.

'The Monkey God' stated:

"I want to prove to all of these guys that have been doubting me - all of these people that have been doubting me on social media, all these people that have been doubting me, that really gets to me."

Brooks has made a habit of winning in the world's largest martial arts organization. But against McLaren, he will be facing his toughest test yet.
