In the world of mixed martial arts (MMA), few narratives resonate as strongly as Jarred Brooks'. This American fighter's journey represents not just a series of victories, but a testament to perseverance and personal growth. Brooks' story is filled with struggles and triumphs that shaped him into the skilled fighter he has become. Here, we explore his early life, pivotal moments in his career, and the obstacles he has overcome. Early Life and Background of Jarred Brooks Jarred Brooks was born on July 17, 1993, in Warsaw, Indiana. Growing up in a small town, he faced a range of financial challenges. However, these trials nurtured a profound work ethic and an unyielding spirit. From a young age, Brooks exhibited a passion for sports. He participated in wrestling and football, but eventually discovered his true calling in martial arts. Watching MMA fights on television ignited a fire in him and set him on a path toward combat sports. Despite financial difficulties, Brooks’ family supported his dedication to training. He poured hours into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and wrestling, establishing a solid foundation for his future career. By age 20, he was training six days a week, honing his skills to prepare for the rigors of professional fighting. Key Fights and Victories in His Career Brooks made a splash in the MMA world with his professional debut in 2014, where he secured a dominant victory. His unique combination of wrestling and grappling quickly gained attention. One standout moment in his career came in 2018 when he competed for the LFA (Legacy Fighting Alliance) title. Brooks not only won the fight but did so with a strong performance that showcased his incredible technique and physical conditioning. This victory opened doors to larger promotions, particularly the UFC, where fighters face some of the toughest opponents in the sport. In 2020, Brooks had a critical match in his UFC debut against a seasoned opponent. He faced mental and physical challenges but emerged victorious, underscoring his readiness for high-stakes competition. His ability to adapt mid-fight and implement strategic changes proved vital in securing the win. Throughout his career, Brooks has competed in over 20 professional bouts, with a record boasting victories against notable fighters. His journey illustrates how determination and hard work can transform talent into success, earning him a dedicated fan base. Challenges Faced and Lessons Learned Along the Way Despite his many achievements, Brooks has encountered numerous challenges. Injuries have sidelined him at critical points, forcing him to take time off from both training and competition. These setbacks were heavy tests of his mental fortitude. In 2019, after a string of tough losses, Brooks faced a significant personal crisis marked by self-doubt. He questioned his abilities as a fighter and the path he had chosen. It was during this dark time that he understood the necessity of mental health support in a demanding sport like MMA. Through therapy and the encouragement of his coaches, Brooks began to view his failures as opportunities for personal growth. This shift in mindset allowed him to return to the octagon with a renewed sense of strength. Studies show that athletes with strong mental health support often achieve more sustainable success, a journey Brooks now exemplifies. Additionally, Brooks learned to navigate external criticism from fans and commentators. Rather than letting negativity weigh him down, he chose to view it as a source of motivation. This attitude transformation has directly impacted his performance, leading to more confident showings in the cage. Final Thoughts Jarred Brooks’ journey through the world of MMA is a compelling narrative of resilience and passion. His rise from a humble upbringing to a recognized figure in the UFC is inspiring for aspiring fighters everywhere. Every competition is more than just a chance to win; it embodies the lessons learned, hardships endured, and the unshakeable pursuit of success. With each match, Brooks continues to demonstrate that true greatness lies not solely in the outcomes but in the experiences and wisdom gained along the way.

More than six years have passed since Khabib Nurmagomedov dominated Conor McGregor at UFC 229, but for McGregor, the rivalry seems far from over. The Irish fighter continues to take shots at Khabib and his family, a fixation that Usman Nurmagomedov believes stems from his inability to move past that crushing defeat. McGregor’s latest antics surfaced after Paul Hughes, who suffered a tough loss to Usman at a recent PFL event in Dubai, showed respect to Khabib and his team. Hughes’ gesture stood in stark contrast to McGregor’s repeated verbal attacks on the Nurmagomedov family. Rather than acknowledge Hughes' sportsmanship, McGregor turned on his fellow Irishman for attempting to make peace with the Dagestani camp. Usman Nurmagomedov, the current Bellator lightweight champion, didn’t hold back when discussing McGregor’s ongoing obsession. “Maybe because Khabib kicked his ass,”  Usman told MMA Fighting.  “He wants a rematch but he has to live with this all his life and his kids have to live with this all his life.” McGregor’s career has taken a downward spiral since his loss to Khabib in 2018. He has fought just three times since, posting a 1-2 record, with his last bout ending in a gruesome leg break against Dustin Poirier in 2021. Meanwhile, Khabib successfully defended his title two more times before retiring in 2020, fulfilling a promise to his mother following the passing of his father, Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov. Usman believes McGregor’s entire legacy has been overshadowed by that infamous loss, preventing him from moving forward. “He has to live with this and pass with this,”  Usman said.  “All his family, all his legacy, all this, is around this. He lost to Khabib when had to win. But it [did not] happen. Khabib smashed his face, his team, and all for what he was working [for].” As McGregor continues to make headlines for reasons outside the cage, Khabib’s family remains focused on their ever-growing legacy. Usman credits their success to his uncle Abdulmanap, whose influence still resonates through fighters like Islam Makhachev, Umar Nurmagomedov, and himself. “Khabib’s legacy continues,”  Usman said.  “We’re not calling this Khabib’s legacy. We’re calling this Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov’s legacy because of him, he began this.” Despite the heated rivalry between their respective countries, Usman has no personal animosity toward Paul Hughes. He acknowledged that the "Dagestan vs. Ireland" angle was simply a way to promote the fight, helping fill the Coca-Cola Arena and generating worldwide interest. “Before fight, I said Paul Hughes is not a bad guy,”  Usman stated.  “I met with him in Dubai, and he’s not a bad guy. He’s not some shit guy. He’s a good guy. But we have to promote this fight.” As McGregor remains fixated on the past, Usman and his family continue building upon their dominant legacy—one fight at a time.

Brandon Moreno is set to headline UFC Mexico City in a high-stakes flyweight showdown against Steve Erceg. The fight, officially announced during the UFC 312 broadcast, will take place on March 29 at Arena CDMX. This marks a crucial moment for both fighters as they look to reestablish themselves in the title picture. Currently ranked No. 2 in the flyweight division, Moreno (22-8-2) is a former two-time UFC flyweight champion eager to climb back to the top. After suffering back-to-back split decision losses to Alexandre Pantoja and Brandon Royval, Moreno rebounded in November with a unanimous decision victory over Amir Albazi. Fighting in his home country, he will look to build on that momentum and prove he is still among the elite at 125 pounds. On the other side, Steve Erceg (12-3) enters the bout as the No. 9-ranked flyweight, seeking redemption after consecutive losses. Erceg made an impressive start to his UFC tenure with three straight wins before suffering a decision loss to Pantoja and then a first-round TKO defeat at the hands of Kai Kara-France in August. With the opportunity to take down a former champion, Erceg hopes to make a statement and solidify his position in the division. With both fighters coming off recent setbacks and aiming to climb the ranks, the main event in Mexico City promises to deliver fireworks. As Erceg looks to pull off a major upset, Moreno is determined to shine in front of his home crowd.

KSI had his sights set on fighting an MMA fighter for his next boxing match, but it wasn’t supposed to be Dillon Danis. Last week, Misfits Boxing officially announced that KSI—YouTuber, rapper, and PRIME co-founder—will headline an event on March 29 in Manchester, England, against former Bellator fighter and jiu-jitsu specialist Dillon Danis in a 185-pound boxing match. However, according to KSI, Danis was far from his first choice. “I know I’m not even supposed to say this, but f*ck it, bro: Dillon Danis wasn’t even my fourth choice,” KSI revealed in a YouTube video posted Tuesday. “We went to Nate Diaz, he said no. We went to Donald Cerrone, he said no. We went to Tony Ferguson, he said no. These guys said no to me. I’m there confused as to why a footballer wants to fight me, but these top UFC, ex-UFC fighters don’t want to fight me. Even (Jorge Masvidal). We went to Masvidal to fight, and he couldn’t do it because (he’s under UFC contract). Like, guys, we’ve been trying to find people to fight.” While KSI expressed frustration at the number of fighters who declined the bout, the matchup with Danis at least presents a fair fight in terms of age. KSI, 31, will take on an opponent in his age range, whereas his other targets—Nate Diaz (39), Donald Cerrone (41), Tony Ferguson (40), and Jorge Masvidal (40)—are significantly older and past their physical primes. This isn’t the first time KSI and Danis were scheduled to fight. The two were initially booked for a six-round exhibition in January 2023 at 178 pounds, but Danis pulled out of the match just 10 days before the event. He was replaced by gaming streamer FaZe Temperrr (Thomas Oliveira), whom KSI defeated with ease. Despite the setbacks in securing a bigger name, KSI remains focused on proving himself in the boxing world. With Danis finally making it to fight night this time, fans will be watching closely to see if KSI can continue his rise or if Danis can redeem himself inside the ring.

GFL Can GFL Make It in the MMA Promotion Industry, or Is It Burning Out Too Fast? The world of MMA is no stranger to ambitious new promotions claiming they will change the game. Now, Global Fight League (GFL) has entered the battlefield with big promises, a massive budget, and a roster featuring some of the sport’s biggest names—most of whom are past their prime. While the excitement surrounding GFL’s arrival is undeniable, one major question looms: Can they actually carve out a lasting place in the industry, or are they just another promotion burning cash at an unsustainable rate? Big Money, Big Moves—But for How Long? GFL certainly isn’t afraid to spend. They’ve signed former UFC champions, secured lucrative partnerships, and pushed out high-budget promotional material. But these moves come at a cost—literally. Reports suggest that the company’s budget, while substantial, is being drained at an alarming rate. Worse yet, some of their high-profile deals are already falling apart, calling into question their ability to sustain the kind of grandiose operation they’re promising. This is where the cracks begin to show. Unlike organizations such as the UFC, ONE Championship, and the PFL, which have built their brands over time with strategic long-term planning, GFL appears to be taking the high-risk, high-reward approach. While that might work in the short term, history has shown that overspending and overpromising rarely lead to long-term success in MMA. The Pitfall of Flashiness Over Substance One of GFL’s biggest missteps so far is its reliance on veteran fighters rather than developing the next generation of talent. While big names bring eyes to the product, they don’t build the future. If GFL wants to truly revolutionize the sport, they need to focus on signing and cultivating rising stars who will shape the next decade of MMA—not just capitalizing on nostalgia. Moreover, their branding and promotional efforts seem focused on spectacle rather than sustainability. While there’s nothing wrong with a bit of flash, true success in MMA comes from practical, conservative decision-making. The UFC didn’t become the giant it is today by throwing money at fading stars—they built a pipeline of talent and created a system where fighters developed within the organization. GFL’s Path to Success: Can They Adapt? Despite the concerns, all is not lost for GFL. They have the potential to make a real impact if they shift their focus. Instead of trying to outdo the UFC, ONE, and PFL in terms of spectacle and big spending, they should zero in on building a strong culture that attracts and develops new talent. If they can pivot from signing retired legends to scouting hungry, up-and-coming fighters, they could establish themselves as the ultimate launchpad for MMA’s future stars. By prioritizing fighter development, fair contracts, and sustainable business practices, GFL could deliver on its promise to change the game—just in a different way than they originally envisioned. Final Thoughts: A Battle Worth Fighting Taking on the giants of the MMA world is no easy feat. GFL has entered the industry with bold claims and deep pockets, but they must prove they have the patience and discipline to build something lasting. If they keep burning through cash without securing a solid foundation, they risk becoming another failed experiment. However, if they recognize the pitfalls of their current strategy and adapt before it’s too late, they have a real chance to shake up the sport. It’s still too early to tell whether GFL will thrive or fade away, but one thing is certain: they have a fight on their hands. And in MMA, the ability to adjust, survive, and evolve is everything.

Joyce, known for his relentless pressure and granite chin, will be looking to bounce back after recent setbacks.

Ilia Topuria has made it clear that he wants a shot at reigning lightweight champion Islam Makhachev, and now he has one of the most influential voices in MMA backing him—Joe Rogan. During his Fight Companion  podcast for UFC 312, Rogan looked ahead to 2025 and named Topuria vs. Makhachev as the fight he wants to see most. While some argue that Topuria should first establish dominance in his division as the featherweight champion, Rogan sees no reason to delay an exciting showdown at 155 pounds. “As crazy as it sounds, I hope Ilia goes up to [155 pounds]. I really do,” Rogan said.  “[Alexander] Volkanovski-Diego Lopes [at] 145, Ilia goes up to 55. I don’t care if he only defended the title one time or didn’t, who cares? Let’s go. Let’s f*cking go.” Although Topuria has only defended his title once, his last two victories came against two of the best featherweights in history. He first dethroned Alexander Volkanovski with a knockout finish, then followed up with an equally stunning stoppage of Max Holloway—who had never been knocked out in his career. While the UFC has been discussing a rematch between Topuria and Volkanovski, Rogan believes the former champion should re-establish himself before getting another title shot. “If you want to make the big fight for July, is it the Volkanovski rematch? I don’t know,” Rogan said.  “Volkanovski, people probably want to see him win one. “He gets beaten by Islam in the first fight, he gets KO’d by Islam in the second fight … and then he gets KO’d by Ilia. So two KO losses in a row, one decision, even though he’s a legend, you kind of want to see him beat a contender maybe.” While Rogan isn’t entirely against a Volkanovski rematch, he believes the Australian should be at his best before stepping back into a championship fight. “I wouldn’t hate a rematch,” Rogan said. “It’s one of those ones where I hope Alex is 100 percent and I want to see it but he shouldn’t have fought him that quickly after getting KO’d by Islam. Three months, four months later, he took a shot.” With Topuria riding high on momentum and Makhachev looking for a fresh challenge, Rogan’s push for this fight could add further intrigue to an already exciting potential matchup.

In fact, it is considered one of the best matches of that year, receiving a 4.5-star rating from major wrestling publications.

His matches against skilled wrestlers like Pac and members of Death Triangle highlighted his impressive abilities and knack for storytelling. For example, during his match against Pac, he utilized his striking skills to deliver a brutal performance that ended in a dramatic finish, winning over a new faction of fans. The formation of his faction, the House of Black, has added a rich layer to AEW’s storytelling. Alongside Buddy Matthews and Brody King, Black has infused the promotion with a mix of supernatural themes and raw power. The distinct vibe of the House of Black has captivated audiences and created an engaging narrative landscape within the AEW roster.

One potential storyline could involve a feud with Kenny Omega or the Young Bucks. This clash of styles is highly anticipated, with Omega's high-flying moves contrasting sharply with Black's psychological tactics. Such a rivalry could create memorable moments for wrestling fans. Additionally, Black may find himself in intense confrontations with other up-and-coming stars or former WWE talents in AEW. Wrestlers like Adam Cole or Bray Wyatt could challenge him in ways that elevate his character and showcase his versatile talents. Furthermore, the evolution of the House of Black adds layers to the narrative.

Jeremy Stephens took a bold risk heading into his fight against Eddie Alvarez at BKFC KnuckleMania 5, and now, as a free agent, he’s looking to capitalize on his success. The veteran fighter delivered a career-defining performance in Philadelphia, breaking Alvarez’s jaw and forcing a stoppage in the third round. What makes his victory even more significant is that it was the final fight on his BKFC contract, giving him the leverage to negotiate a massive payday. “I took a f*cking huge risk,”  Stephens told MMA Fighting, explaining that he turned down a GFL contract to bet on himself. Having been sidelined for a year after his win over Jimmie Rivera, Stephens entered free agency knowing he had to make a statement. And he did—in front of a record-breaking crowd, as BKFC’s KnuckleMania 5 surpassed the UFC’s previous combat sports attendance record. Leading up to the fight, Stephens faced hostility from the Philadelphia crowd, with even UFC veteran Joe Pyfer talking trash at the pre-fight press conference. However, inside the ring, he silenced his critics. He dropped Alvarez twice in the third round before the former UFC champion’s corner stopped the fight. The following day, Alvarez confirmed that his jaw had been shattered early in the fight, making it impossible to continue. Now, with his stock at an all-time high, Stephens is demanding the compensation he deserves.  “Now you’ve got to pay me,”  he stated bluntly. He clarified that he won’t settle for mediocre paychecks, emphasizing his desire for million-dollar fights. BKFC President David Feldman even admitted to betting on Alvarez, which only fueled Stephens' determination. “You paid the wrong man. Now it’s my time. Ball’s in my court,”  he declared. While Stephens is exploring options, he remains open to re-signing with BKFC, provided they offer the right deal. “Me and Feldman are cool. We don’t have a contract right now. I love working with them. I love the BKFC,”  Stephens said, adding that he enjoys the raw, primal nature of the sport. However, he won’t settle for anything less than what he’s worth, and whether it’s BKFC, UFC, or another major promotion, “The Heathen” is ready to cash in.

MMA.inc MMA.inc Unveils Groundbreaking Integrated Community and Commerce Platform for the Martial Arts World The martial arts industry is about to experience a digital revolution as MMA inc announces the upcoming launch of its first-ever fully integrated community and commerce platform. Designed to unite the global martial arts ecosystem, this innovative mobile app bridges the gap between fans, fighters, coaches, gym owners, and brands—transforming the way they connect, engage, and grow together. Set to officially launch in the second quarter of 2025, the platform is currently in closed beta, but its potential to reshape the martial arts landscape is already undeniable. With over 640 million MMA fans worldwide, 11.8 million U.S. participants, and $18 billion in annual U.S. revenue, MMA.inc ’s platform is positioned to solve one of the industry’s biggest challenges: fragmentation. Revolutionizing Martial Arts: A Unified Platform MMA.inc is doing for martial arts what platforms like Reddit and Toast did for their industries. By aggregating the entire martial arts economy into a single, streamlined experience, MMA.inc aims to become the definitive hub for fans, fighters, and businesses. Nick Langton , founder and CEO of MMA.inc , encapsulated the platform’s vision: “The global martial arts community has grown exponentially, but it’s also highly fragmented. Our platform unites this massive audience under one digital roof, modernizing and curating the way fans and participants connect, learn, and engage. We’re not just building a platform; we’re building the future of martial arts.” Key Features of the Platform MMA.inc ’s app offers a single sign-on profile granting users access to a wide array of tools and features: Social Community : A dedicated space for fans, fighters, and practitioners to connect, share content, and discuss martial arts. Fighter & Event Stats : Comprehensive coverage of both professional and grassroots events. Gym & Class Finder : Locate gyms and coaches for in-person or virtual training. Gamified Training Tracker : Tools to monitor and gamify skill development. Business Tools for Gyms & Coaches : Includes membership management, payment processing, and e-commerce capabilities. Marketplace & Advertising Integration : Connects brands with highly engaged, niche audiences. This all-encompassing platform is set to redefine the way the martial arts world interacts, creating new opportunities for growth and monetization. Reimagining the Community: A Digital Evolution MMA.inc ’s Vice President of North America, Rich Chou , highlighted the historical significance of martial arts fan communities and the need for a modern iteration: “The Underground forums were pivotal in shaping MMA’s early growth. Our new platform builds on that legacy, providing a dynamic ecosystem that engages fans, fighters, and gym owners in ways never seen before.” UFC President Dana White has also acknowledged the importance of online fan communities in MMA’s evolution, stating: “The Underground was instrumental in spreading the sport’s reach. MMA.inc ’s new platform takes that concept to the next level, creating a centralized hub for the martial arts community.” A Game-Changing Business Model MMA.inc ’s revenue strategy is as innovative as its platform, leveraging multiple streams: Subscriptions : Premium features for fans and business tools for gym owners and coaches. Transaction Fees : Earnings from memberships, class bookings, and e-commerce sales. Advertising & Sponsorships : Access to a highly targeted combat sports audience. With over 5 million social media followers, 530,000 existing user profiles, and partnerships with 18,000 gyms across 16 countries, MMA.inc is poised for rapid growth. The company’s network of high-profile ambassadors, boasting a cumulative reach of 60 million followers, will amplify the platform’s adoption upon its official launch. MMA.inc : A Vision for the Future Through its core business units— TrainAlta , Hype , MixedMartialArts.com , and BJJLink —MMA.inc is not only revolutionizing the digital landscape for fans and athletes but also fostering growth for gym owners, coaches, and brands.
