Subject fails WP:NMMA. He is brother of Clay Guida, but notabilitay is not inherited. LlamaAl (talk) 03:16, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I'm borderline on this one. He didn't make it very far in The Ultimate Fighter: Team Nogueira vs. Team Mir and The Ultimate Fighter: Team GSP vs. Team Koscheck but nonetheless was on a prime-time series for a top-tier organization. He has two top-tier fights (World Extreme Cagefighting and Bellator MMA) making him 1 fight shy of the 3 needed under WP:NMMA. He's technically signed to UFC and awaiting a fight in which he was scheduled for two but had setbacks. He appears to have some very limited coverage outside his events. I'd generally be in favour of keeping the article considering the subject's history with top-tier MMA even though his record does not meet MMA to a T. Mkdw ^talk 22:44, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep I would say all of the comments posted above in combination with the fact that he technically does actually have 3 top tier fights I would say he is notable enough. Sepulwiki (talk) 07:19, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

He only has two top tier fights (one of them a pro-exhibition bout). --LlamaAl (talk) 01:24, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment — He seems to pass WP:NMMA. If you check his professional record on Sherdog, he has two bouts for WEC and one for Bellator. I also checked in Mixedmartialarts.com and Tapology.com and it's the same as Sherdog. Only his article and WEC 22 article claims that the bout is just an exhibition match, however seems like there is no source backing it. Poison Whiskey 02:01, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information. Closing. --LlamaAl (talk) 02:25, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
