Aaron Pico is ranked #12 at UFC featherweight — close enough to smell the title, dangerous enough that champions don't say his name too loudly.
Wrestling is the skeleton key here — 6.5 takedowns a round on average. Everything opponents want to do standing gets interrupted, smothered, and dragged to the canvas.
Last time out he beat Patricio Pitbull (Decision - Unanimous) — the kind of result that keeps a career pointed in the right direction.
