Keep He meets WP:NMMA since he fought for a UFC title (although I don't know how with 3 victories in 10 fights going in).Mdtemp (talk) 19:44, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Fought for a title in a top-tier organization, thus passes WP:MMANOT. His win/loss record should have little bearing on his notability, as many losing fighters can pass WP:MMANOT's strict notability standards (Maurice Smith, Tank Abbott, Daiju Takase etc.) Luchuslu (talk) 16:46, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep I don't how he got that title fight, but he did--that's enough to meet WP:NMMA. Papaursa (talk) 05:03, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
