Aaron Pico was a standout in Bellator, but the big question now is whether he can replicate that success in the UFC.
The 28-year-old featherweight recently announced his move to the UFC, sparking speculation about his debut and potential opponents. Pico brings with him a 13-4 record from his time in Bellator, with a reputation for delivering highlight-reel knockouts.
Since his debut at the age of 20, Pico has faced intense scrutiny. Despite a setback in his first pro fight, he has since racked up an impressive record, including recent victories over seasoned fighters like Henry Corrales and Pedro Carvalho.
After a brief stint in the PFL following the organization’s acquisition of Bellator, Pico now joins the highly competitive 145-pound UFC roster.
Opinions among fans are divided on Pico’s move to the UFC, with some foreseeing even greater success while others question his ability to handle the pressure of competing in the octagon.
