Khalil Rountree, Jr.

Non-notable MMA fighter. Has no top tier fights so article was created WP:TOOSOON. Assuming he'll get 3 top tier fights is WP:CRYSTALBALL. No objection to recreating article if he gets 3 top tier fights.Mdtemp (talk) 15:09, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Considering he has only 4 lifetime fights, none in even a second tier organization, the claim he will soon have 3 top tier fights is a bit preposterous. Papaursa (talk) 15:36, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Doesn't GNG trump all? Independent coverage seems to be quite big.  173.52.99.208 (talk) 22:56, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Fight announcements and results are considered routine sports reporting and don't contribute to meeting WP:GNG. The TUF coverage is either about results or passing mentions.Mdtemp (talk) 17:28, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
