Has competed only in a few rounds, and doesn't meet WP:MMABIO. Doesn't pass GNG, either. Htanaungg (talk) 08:52, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Htanaungg, Thank you for your protection of sports Wikipedia. Based on WP:MMABIO and WP:MMATIER the article is coverd by WP:ATHLETE, Ok Rae Yoon is Current ONE Championship Lightweight World Champion. AriaTess (talk) 09:10, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AriaTess, ONE Champion, which he competes (only) in, is not a top-tier MMA organization per WP:MMATIER. He has not been ranked top 10 in neither of Sherdog and Fight Matrix, too. Htanaungg (talk) 09:25, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Htanaungg I already added him record. He is current champion of ONE Championship (WP:MMATIER). Based on WP:MMABIO it is enough and he is already notable. Regards. AriaTess (talk) 09:57, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AriaTess, you've misunderstood the guidelines. What MMABIO says is that "Have fought at least three (3) professional fights for a top-tier MMA organization, such as UFC." Per MMATIER it's clear that ONE Championship is a second-tier one. So whether he's a champion or not, he doesn't meet MMABIO. Unless there are RS enough to pass WP:GNG, it's difficult to say he's notable. Htanaungg (talk) 10:04, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Htanaungg, ONE Championship is a top MMA organizations in the world. 1, 2, 3. He Already has 3 fight in ONE. I also added more sources by WP:RS. Hope can be pass WP:GNG. AriaTess (talk) 10:19, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AriaTess This is Wikipedia and per Wikipedia ONE has not achieve the top tier mma promotion as per today. To be considered a top tier promotion, the promotion needs to have at least 6 fighters ranked in world top ten for at least a year in Sherdog or Fight Matrix ranking system and ONE has not achieved so far. So the fighter is considered not notable as per WP:NMMA. Cassiopeia talk 19:58, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:NMMA and GNG. Cassiopeia talk 19:56, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete He has no top tier fights to meet WP:NMMA. Routine sports reporting doesn't show WP:GNG is met and the rest of the sources are listings in databases. Right now he doesn't appear close to WP notability. Papaursa (talk) 23:03, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete While I am a supporter of ONE being considered a top tier promotion, that reality hasn't happened yet, and Ok Rae Yoon does not meet WP:MMABIO criteria. ♡RAFAEL♡^(talk) 10:44, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
