One of Bellator’s brightest young stars will be on the promotion’s big card in San Jose, CA.
MMA Fighting reports that verbal agreements are in for Aaron Pico to take on former UFC and PFL fighter Jeremy Kennedy at Bellator 277 on April 15th. Marcel Dorff had the initial scoop. Showtime will air the main card live, with prelims broadcast on PlutoTV and on YouTube.
Pico (9-3) has seemingly found his footing in MMA after being touted as one of the best prospects in the sport’s history. The former freestyle wrestling standout had a disastrous pro debut in 2017 when he was submitted by Zach Freeman at Bellator 180.
