Quick read
Former Jackson Wink general manager Mikhail Lyubimov described Aaron Pico as an exceptionally destructive sparring partner, recounting incidents in which partners left the gym with broken ribs, fractured orbital bones, and knockouts. Lyubimov said partners began avoiding Pico, prompting him to travel to other gyms, and that his relationship with fellow gym member Steve Garcia deteriorated after Pico repeatedly injured him. Pico has spent extended periods training in Morocco, where he is reportedly paid handsomely and provided world-class sparring partners, though he has recently been seen training at Cub Swanson's gym in California.
