Fails WP:SPORTSEVENT with no well-sourced prose; consists only of WP:ROUTINE coverage. LlamaAl (talk) 21:40, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

  • Keep - Very notable event due to the unusual nature surrounding it. Fighters weren't paid, the organziation didn't have enough cash to hire judges, features many current and former UFC fighters. Disagree that the coverage is WP:ROUTINE and feel that it passes WP:GNG based on notability stemming from the unusual nature of the event. Luchuslu (talk) 23:32, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

:It still fails WP:SPORTSEVENT. And the coverage is routine. If you address this issues before this AfD is closed, I would withdraw my nomination. --LlamaAl (talk) 00:10, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

::I added a couple more sources. Apparently the case was up for investigation by the US government. Not sure if it's enough for you to withdraw the nomination but I feel there's enough here for an article per WP:SPORTSEVENT "A game that is widely considered by independent reliable sources to be notable, outside routine coverage of each game, especially if the game received front page coverage outside of the local areas involved." Luchuslu (talk) 22:28, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

:::It still needs some tweaks. But it's enough. Closing. --LlamaAl (talk) 22:44, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

  • Comment I couldn't find coverage of this event on anything but MMA sites and I don't know that they qualify as reliable sources. I do remember reading about what a fiasco this event was. It certainly received coverage on MMA sites that was not just the usual fight results, but I don't know that it meets WP:SPORTSEVENT. Papaursa (talk) 20:20, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
