Yeah he just needs to go back to wrestling or advance his jiu jitsu. 22, already got slumped twice. Got knocked down in his first fight. Scott Coker fukked up big time. This is why you save talent from themselves and keep them on the path that they're supposed to take.

AJ McKee is exactly how you supposed to do it.
I know right, it's baffling. Scott Coker took his time with guys like AJ and MVP. He's going even slower with guys like Tyrell Fortune and Tywan Claxton. I don't get why he thought Aaron Pico was going to be amazing so early. Even his most prized prospect ever, Daniel Cormier, took at least a year fighting absolute scrubs to get used to fighting.

Pico talked too much and maybe didn't have someone like AJ's dad to make sure this didn't happen. They close but that's still not his own son.
There is a massive difference in Olympic wrestling/Golden Gloves than professional MMA.
Arum or Haymon would never do no shyt like this.
He really booked Pico like he was Brock Lesnar, the fact that Pico's management and training staff agreed is insane
