another sprawling series of non notable sporting results. fails WP:GNG. no indepth third party coverage and sherdog.com does not cut it for extensive coverage. LibStar (talk) 08:58, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Martial arts-related deletion discussions. — Osubuckeyeguy (talk) 04:22, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep All of these events were held by a large promotion and feature notable fighters. Some even feature world title fights. -- WölffReik (talk) 14:57, 18 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- notable fighters does not meet automatic notability. please provide evidence of third party sources to meet WP:GNG. they are not world title fights merely part of a fighting series held in different countries. LibStar (talk) 14:23, 18 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete All Again, WP is not a sports results service, no significant third party coverage, fails WP:GNG. Mtking (edits) 00:38, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all but the 2 events in Japan Both of those events featured K-1 world title fights, but the other events don't seem notable. Astudent0 (talk) 12:49, 19 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- have now withdrawn AfDs for world title events. LibStar (talk) 08:21, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete the five that are left in the nomination. Despite featuring notable fighters and being heavily promoted, these events seem to have singularly failed to receive significant coverage in independent reliable sources as required by WP:GNG, unless someone knows better.

- Relisting comment While the discussion is obviously weighed toward delete, I felt that it would be a good idea to get at least a few more opinions before closing an AFD considering deleting multiple articles. If any administrator disagrees with my view that this is necessary, please feel free to close it. Regards, causa sui (talk) 21:33, 21 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete I see no supported claims of notability in any of the remaining 5 articles. The articles just appear to be routine sport results reporting. Papaursa (talk) 00:40, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
