Jay White (mixed martial artist)

Putting aside the fact this article needs serious cleanup if it were to stay, the subject fails WP:NMMA and WP:GNG. Subject has a losing record, and never peaked above the top 100 in his division, according to FightMatrix. As for GNG, I couldn't find anything that demonstrates significant coverage.  ♡RAFAEL♡(talk) 21:54, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete All loses in major promotions, no where close to a top talent, no articles on him anywhere. HeinzMaster (talk) 04:30, 25 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete Never close to being notable as an MMA fighter. He doesn't seem to ever have competed at the highest level of BJJ (an international black belt competition).  The article's claim of him winning medals in successive years competing at the "Pan-American Games in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu" is clearly wrong because BJJ isn't even an event at the Pan American Games,  the martial arts events at the Pan Am games aren't divided by belt levels, and the games are only held every 4 years.  There's no evidence of success at the highest levels of grappling or bodybuilding.  I also didn't see significant independent coverage that would show WP:GNG is met.
