No sources, no coverage that I can find online. The only thing I could cite was that he won the championship, and it's poorly sourced in my opinion. d m  z  23:04, 10 December 2010 (UTC) Nomination withdrawn, see below. d m  z  21:38, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep. Surely a world champion is notable per se. And coverage certainly does exist: 163 hits at GNews archives and dozens more at Google Books.  --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:29, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep A world boxing champion is clearly notable. I've added another source verifying his title. Papaursa (talk) 00:32, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep - WBA Welterweight Champion is clearly notable as competing (and winning) at the highest level of his sport, and can be easily verified with sources such as this book, which explicitly name him as WBA Welterweight Champion. -- Whpq (talk) 16:34, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Seems very clear cut. It's easy to find reliable sources that show he was a world champion boxer. 131.118.229.17 (talk) 16:44, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep seems a notable boxer of World Boxing Association.Vonjob944 (talk) 07:30, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Sourced world boxing champion easily passes WP:GNG and WP:ATH. Astudent0 (talk) 14:47, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep: Nomination Withdrawn as it's been proven to me that I obviously didn't do enough research before nominating this article. d  m  z  21:38, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
