Man was called the LeBron James of MMA prospects on their PPV :mjlol:

John McCarthy compared him to BERNARD fukkIN HOPKINS

At this point, he's more Doo Ho Choi than anything else. He fights like an absolute moron just wanting to get dropped


I should neg you for disrespecting the Korean super boy but it’s all true :mjcry:

Welp, Bellator is going to have to cut back on some of that Pico hype.

They can still market him as a super exciting, "he always brings it" type of fighter, but the future GOAT talk has got to stop for a couple of years minimum.

I wonder if he can go back to amateur wrestling. He's taken two TERRIBLE shots (remember, he got slumped in his first fight before he got submitted) in the last two years, and he's only 22

I'm a fan of his too, but even he knows he can't fight like that. I remember reading that he tried to enter the military for mandatory service so he can recover from his injuries, but they wouldn't accept him yet

I have actually some hope for swagger, we’ve been discussing him for the last two years and we talked about how legit his background is. Bringing his wrestling gimmick is smart cuz unlike cm punk he doesn’t need to be “taken serious” he’s an all American.

There is no amateur wrestling..and no money in that. wrestlers go to mma to make money.

I think they'll build him up. Pico is the only guy who demanded tough competition early, and they should NOT have matched him up with a tough sociopath so early

He's said that he's wanted to go back to it for the 2020 Olympics. It's a long shot. They'll just try to build him back up like any other prospect who's failed before
