So UTG is 100% stealing and CO prolly knows that but what scares me is betsizing. It is like he just hit pot button.
CO running like 20/13 with 70% AFq over a decent sample. and he already 3bet once (1/9)

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em Tournament, 150/300 Blinds 25 Ante (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop | saw showdown

MP3 (t26050)
CO (t7760)
2f4u (Button) (t6210)
SB (t7420)
BB (t20520)
UTG (t4430)
UTG+1 (t28067)
MP1 (t4822)
MP2 (t4630)

2f4u's M: 9.20

Preflop: 2f4u is Button with A

, Q

1 fold, UTG+1 bets t650, 3 folds, CO raises to t2550, Hero ?

Fold readless, probably a jam if your UTG+1 is opening 100% is closer to true than false.

I would say that UTG fold 100% of the time (of course this is not true, but he is so active and will fold about 90% of the time for sure), so I'm more concerned about CO

I understand you're more concerned about CO, and correctly so, but how CO perceives UTG+1 is very important to this hand.

Yeah, agree.
That's why I would definitely shove if he 3bets like 2,5x.

Yeah, but the smaller sizing might be the nuts, JJ+ AK, and he might use the large sizing with 88-TT, AJ-AQ because he wants to look scarier or alert the loose aggressive opener that he's not folding to a jam, or wants him to think that, etc. Of course a fair amount of players do that with AK too.

well I believe that he could fold more % of the time when he 3bets like 2,5x than if he 3bets pot.
I mean, "normal" 3bet = a lot of marginals + strong hands
BIG 3bet = a lot of strong hands + sometime bluff
