After Patricio Pitbull joined the UFC earlier this year in February, Dana White added another exciting featherweight fighter from Bellator, Aaron Pico. The KO artist was supposedly on the verge of making his debut at UFC Vegas 106 against the undefeated Movsar Evloev, but it seems like Dana White’s plan isn’t going to materialize on the scheduled date.
According to a report from ‘Red Fury MMA’, Movsar Evloev’s team has decided to reconsider fighting Aaron Pico. Why? Well, the 19-0 undefeated Russian star wants to check what the outcome of the main event title fight will be at UFC 314 between Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes, and then, he’ll make up his mind as to whom he’s going to fight next.
Well, Dana White isn’t really a fan of fighters who decline matchups offered to them. And in case Movsar Evloev decides to sit out for some time, maybe the UFC CEO ends up pairing Aaron Pico with another contender. We’ll have to wait and see how things pan out in the coming days.
