With strawweight champion Joshua Pacio injured, ONE Championship is implementing an interim title for the division this summer. Former titleholder Jarred Brooks will take on Gustavo Balart in the main event of ONE Fight Night 24, which takes place Aug. 2 at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand (Prime Video, 8 p.m. ET). A ONE Championship official verified the booking between Brooks (20-3) and Balart (12-4) with MMA Junkie on Tuesday. Brooks, 31, saw his reign come to an end in March when he was disqualified against Pacio for an illegal spike to his opponent.
