Boxer and kickboxer who fails to meet either WP:NBOX or WP:KICK. The only sources are just tables of his record and neither seems to be from a reliable and independent source. As a kickboxer he's fought for no major titles and is not ranked in the top 10 and he has no fights listed at boxrec.com.Mdtemp (talk) 19:05, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep. A known kickboxer with Glory potential. Just a kickboxer, not also a boxer. He already fought in the It's Showtime, Local Kombat (renamed SuperKombat after 2010), even Enfusion, and is the Tatneft Cup champion, you can check that Fightlife.ru link. A very solid promotion. Before he won the W5 event in Slovakia. He's probably in top 15-20 now. Strong record. I recommend notability tag instead as Papaursa. Thesavateur (talk) 12:56, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As a new user interested in kickboxing articles, you might want to check the notability criteria for kickboxers at WP:KICK. Papaursa (talk) 19:04, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I think notability guidelines for kickboxers are pretty clear. Potential has nothing to do with notability.Peter Rehse (talk) 12:50, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Potential is not grounds for keeping an article. He fails to meet the notability criteria at WP:KICK or WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 19:04, 21 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails both GNG and WP:KICK. Everyone has potential, but not everyone can have a Wikipedia article. 131.118.229.17 (talk) 23:13, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
