Delete - Google News search only found one result, where subject was only mentioned in passing. Seems to fail WP:GNG Jumpytoo Talk 02:50, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As per nomination. High rank and who you rain with have never been indications of notability.PRehse (talk) 08:00, 28 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There is no significant independent coverage to support a claim of meeting WP:GNG and no evidence he meets the notability criteria for martial artists at WP:MANOTE. Rank has never been considered an indicator of martial arts notability on WP. In addition, the article appears to be an exact copy of the only reference given (which is not an independent source), so WP:COPYVIO is an issue. Papaursa (talk) 03:53, 30 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
