Mikey Musumeci Impressed By Jarred Brooks, Feels Pressure Being The Face Of Jiu-Jitsu

ONE Flyweight Submission Grappling World Champion Mikey Musumeci successfully defended his crown again at ONE Fight Night 13. This time his challenger was Jarred Brooks. Although “Darth Rigatoni” was able to secure the submission, Musumeci walked away impressed with the ONE Championship‘s strawweight king.

“He’s a real champion. Champions put themselves in uncomfortable positions. And they push themselves for growth. And he had no ego. He dropped his ego to come out here and grapple with me. And that’s what I define as a champion. So again, I have so much respect for that guy,” Musumeci said after ONE Fight Night 13.
