Non-notable MMA fighter. Signing to a top tier organization is not near enough to the three top tier requirement especially since there is not anything else backing it up. Also unsourced BLP. Peter Rehse (talk) 17:58, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete Article was created WP:TOOSOON. He has no top tier fights. Since he signed with the UFC he may get them, but that's WP:CRYSTALBALL. Mdtemp (talk) 18:59, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete I agree with the previous comments. He doesn't meet WP:NMMA since he has no top tier fights and the references given are not enough to meet WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 03:24, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
