I am calling hoax here. None of the references correspond to the subject and in fact the misdirect seems deliberate. The subject does not occur in BoxRec (follow the reference links and it goes to someone else. I had thought it was originally a mistake but my attempt at correction failed. The fight record table is completely made up - or copied from elsewhere. The speedy delete tag for hoax kept on being removed. Peter Rehse (talk) 06:19, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. None of the refs talk about the subject. Could not find him (or a similar name) on boxrec.--– sampi ^{(talk•contrib•email)} 06:53, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: good catch, nothing on Google, and no refs about him. If he is real, he's not notable, so delete anyway. Thanks, Mat ty.007 07:24, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete as a hoax. Apparently his first victory was in the Detroit Masonic Temple. If you look at the boxing records for his opponents, they exist but have never fought this guy. --bonadea contributions talk 09:54, 24 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete At best it fails WP:GNG. At worst it's a hoax. In either case DELETE. --Jersey92 (talk) 02:45, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Most likely a hoax. United States Man (talk) 05:40, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Appears to be a hoax. Links are to other fighters and the article's fight record appears to be made up. Papaursa (talk) 19:48, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
