Subject fails WP:NMMA since he has no fights for a top tier MMA organization. His BJJ accomplishments do not meet WP:MANOTE. Jakejr (talk) 02:02, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Fails WP:NMMA and WP:MANOTE --TreyGeek (talk) 04:04, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep As per his non-trivial reference in Gracie Mag. Passes WP:GNG and WP:V including the refs already in the article. PortlandOregon97217 (talk) 13:19, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article is his manager saying he's signed with Bellator. He still has no top tier fights (WP:CRYSTALBALL). Jakejr (talk) 21:53, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rebuttal I'm not as concerned with essays/guidelines on mma notability. what I am concerned with is the fact that this third party publication published him. This serves make him have WP:SOURCES under WP:V which is a policy. This USA Today article enhances his notability enough to pass the WP:GNG.

• Weak delete - Fails WP:NMMA, passes WP:GNG. --LlamaAl (talk) 00:59, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your manote essay says Reliable sourcing is the most important factor. Have I not presented reliable sources for you which are verifiable? PortlandOregon97217 (talk) 00:49, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for pointing it out, I changed my rationale. --LlamaAl (talk) 00:59, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

More refs Here is an interview, , as well as another quality ref where Bruno is the subject here, as well as a USa today ref of high quality. Easily passes WP:V] with multiple, quality, third party sources PortlandOregon97217 (talk) 01:15, 6 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Delete Unless more sourcing about his grappling titles can be found and added to the article. Fails WP:NMMA Luchuslu (talk) 00:52, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Obviously fails WP:NMMA and I don't see enough non-routine coverage to support claims of him meeting WP:GNG. Mdtemp (talk) 17:21, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
