The Whittier native credits Edwards for stepping up on short notice after punishing him on his way to a third-round stoppage and his sixth consecutive victory.
SAN JOSE — Adli Edwards deserved credit for stepping into the cage on eight days’ notice against Aaron Pico.
Pico, 25, is 6-1 since moving to Albuquerque three years ago to train at Jackson Wink MMA. The Whittier native was coming off a lopsided unanimous decision over Justin Gonzales in November – his only victory that didn’t end in a knockout or submission.Pico threw several strikes to the body and head of Edwards, who weathered many of them. Pico also took him down at will. Once on the mat, the fourth-ranked featherweight controlled and cracked him with sharp elbows and punches.
A left to the body crumbled Edwards and Pico pounced before referee Mike Beltran jumped in just 55 seconds into the round.
