Aaron Pico Pulled from Bellator 257 on April 16 Due to ‘Medical Issues’
A featherweight showdown at Bellator 257 pitting Aaron Pico against Aiden Lee has been postponed.
Bellator president Scott Coker recently confirmed the news to Insider. The bout is expected to be rebooked at a later date.
"The fight that was supposed to happen in April is being pushed back," Coker said. "[Pico] has some medical issues that he had to take care of, so now he's probably being pushed back to the second fight [event] in May, or June.”
Bellator 257 takes place on April 16 at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Conn., and is headlined by a light heavyweight grand prix matchup between reigning 205-pound champion Vadim Nemkov and Phil Davis. The main card will air on Showtime.
