Subject is a mixed martial artist. Subject fails WP:MMABIO as a MMA fighter needs to have at least 3 fights under tier one promotion to pass WP:MMABIO notability requirement which subject fails to secure. Subject also fails GNG as the fight info/record is mainly trivial routine reports. Cassiopeia^(talk) 02:20, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete He has no top tier fights so he fails WP:NMMA. Winning a minor MMA title doesn't show WP notability and all of the coverage is either routine sports reporting or MMA databases. Papaursa (talk) 00:36, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete He fails WP:NMMA. The two criterions for notability of MMA player are (according to WP:NMMA):

1. Have fought at least three professional fights for a top-tier MMA organization, such as the UFC (see WP:MMATIER); or

2. Have fought for the highest title of a top-tier MMA organization

He fails both of the criterions because in his professional career, he has only fought in the CFFC (which isn't listed in the tier list) and the Bellator (in which all his fights were

after 2015, so after Bellator was knocked down to second tier). He has never fought in a top-tier organization. He fails notability. Lazman321 (talk) 17:46, 14 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
