Quick read
Former Jackson Wink general manager Mikhail Lyubimov has detailed the severe toll Aaron Pico took on sparring partners at the gym, describing partners leaving with broken ribs, orbital bone fractures, and knockout-level knockdowns during sessions. Partners regularly refused to continue working with Pico even for financial compensation, and the situation eventually caused a rift with Steve Garcia, with the two top fighters training separately after multiple injuries. Pico has since been training largely in Morocco, where a well-funded camp provides him world-class partners, though he was recently spotted at Cub Swanson's California gym.
