Fails WP:GNG. Couldn't find any SIGCOV or indepth coverage to satisfy notability guidelines. ♡RAFAEL♡^(talk) 05:12, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Brian Davidson has meets minimum requirements for a wikipedia article according to WP:MMABIO he has fought at least 3 times for Major MMA organisations. Dwanyewest (talk) 10:24, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Meeting MMABIO is irrelevant in this discussion. GNG trumps all NSPORT notability criteria, so you have to prove the subject meets GNG by showing indepth/significant coverage by reliable sources. ♡RAFAEL♡^(talk) 18:51, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

More sources have being added to make the article more notable. Dwanyewest (talk) 19:19, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fight announcements and results don't meet WP:GNG. Lacks multiple sources of significant independent coverage. Apparently WP:NSPORT has eliminated participation criteria and WP:NMMA now says a fighter must have been world top 10. Davidson's highest rank was #142 so he doesn't meet any notability standards.Sandals2 (talk) 23:11, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete Doesn't have the significant independent coverage to meet WP:GNG and nowhere close to meeting WP:NMMA. The SNG for MMA fighters is not WP:MMABIO but the latest version of WP:NMMA. Papaursa (talk) 22:52, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
