Joshua Pacio s teammate gives prediction for his fight against Brooks

Another member of Team Lakay, Eduard Folayang, gave his thoughts in an interview with ONE Championship on the upcoming strawweight title clash. Folayeng has faith in his teammate and even predicted the method and round of 's victory: "We’ve heard this before that us fighters from Team Lakay don’t know anything when it comes to fighting on the ground, and that’s really not true. If Joshua predicts what Jarred will do, then I know that Joshua will use that to his advantage...He is a very smart fighter. My prediction is that Joshua will knock Jarred Brooks out, maybe in the fourth round." Brooks is an accomplished wrestler and has won all three of his fights in ONE. Most recently, he choked out previously undefeated Bokang Masunyane in the first round at ONE 156. Joshua Pacio has nine wins by submission, validating Folayang’s claim to the ground game of Team Lakay fighters. The fight against Brooks will mark his fourth title defense.
