This sports event fails WP:NOTNEWSPAPER policy along with WP:EVENT and WP:SPORTSEVENT , there is no attempt in the actual article to demonstrate any lasting significance, the sources are from either before or immediately post the event and are just of the routine coverage type any sports event gets, they are either not independent or from MMA centric websources.

- Delete The article consists solely of fight results with only routine sports coverage. Unlike the Super Bowl, there were no champions determined at this event. Papaursa (talk) 00:59, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

LlamaAl (talk) 23:06, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply] - Keep per WP:IAR as deleting factual information about a notable event serves no useful purpose and does not in anywise benefit anyone. As such this nomination violates WP:TROLL and WP:DICK. --BStudent0 (talk) 12:37, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- the "ignore all rules" is only half of the policy. it is based on the conditional "if it improves the encyclopedia". you are making a claim "that it doesnt hurt", but an unsupported claim like that is not sufficient. how does it actually improve the encyclopedia? -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 14:48, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- delete fails WP:GNG significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 14:49, 26 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
