The result was delete. The "keeps" are pretty tentative and the lvele of professionalism is in dispute - I'll happily undelete this page if RS can be found Fritzpoll (talk) 15:48, 28 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Subject is non-notable. His only activity of notability is being a participant in the reality show The Ultimate Fighter 7 which he lost in the first round. Justastud15 (talk) 03:08, 22 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 14:57, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. BLP0E. He's done nothing of note. Lara 21:28, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Tentative keep: If he's professional, doesn't it mean he passes WP:ATHLETE? --Cyclopia ^talk 21:08, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, mixed martial arts is different from football and baseball. 24.107.210.161 (talk) 01:12, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In which respect? (It is a sincere question, not a rhetorical one).--Cyclopia ^talk 02:09, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep - professional athlete would entitle him to pass WP:ATHLETE. The only concern is if the term "professional" is used in the same sense as it is in "professional wrestling", where the "professional" is used in the sense of a different discipline, rather than in the sense "they make a living off it". If he's living off his MMA, there's a presumption of notability. Which leaves the issue of finding some more reliable sources (most of those cited are arguably not independent), but that isn't necessarily an AfD issue. - DustFormsWords (talk) 06:36, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Three matches in the last four years, none for a major promotion. IMO, this does not qualify as competing on the fully professional level of MMA. Sene seems pretty non-notable to me. --TreyGeek (talk) 23:12, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
