I replied to your post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mixed martial arts. Do you think we could avoid edit warring over it until it's resolved? As long as a reliable source lists it, and we can't prove they're definitely wrong by using another reliable source, it don't think it should be removed. Hopefully you agree as nothing good can come of reverting back and forth. Cheers, -- aktsu (t / c) 03:00, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Your source is the same one that I referred to on another page (thank you for posting a direct link btw). Twice in that notice they announce that that Interleague event for amateurs.  Nowhere does it say that it's exclusively for pros or amateurs.


 * Many sporting events allow amateurs to compete with pros and allow them to keep their amateur status, as long as they follow their policies regarding qualifications, what they can accept as prizes, etc. US Open (golf) is one prime example.  UFC has allowed Tito Ortiz to compete as an amateur.


 * Can you provide a source on the fighters' purse for Spirit MC Interleague 1, and that Dong Hyun Kim was paid as a professional for his fight in that event? Kangaroo001 (talk) 18:09, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Kim, again
Hi, since you were involved in the previous discussion regarding his fight with Choi, feel free to add your opinion regarding whether to actually list his known amateur record on the page at Talk:Kim Dong-hyun. Cheers, -- aktsu (t / c) 19:45, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
