Speedy delete - deleted at AFD two days ago and almost immediately recreated. The only difference is that a non-reliable source has been added that announces a fight for which no contracts have been signed because the date and venue remain unconfirmed. An admin inexplicably declined the speedy so here we are again. Still violates WP:CRYSTAL. Otto4711 (talk) 19:54, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Unlike last time, there is verifiable information about a confirmed date and matchup from a reliable source (Dann Stupp is an expert in the field, and a sportswriter for Yahoo! Sports, the Dayton Daily News, MLB.com, and the San Francisco Chronicle). WP:CRYSTAL doesn't apply anymore since the event is notable and guaranteed to take place. east. 718 at 20:07, November 20, 2007
 * Weakest Possible Keep Agree w/East718 that MMAJunkie is a reliable source, but I'm not jazzed about the cited source specifically saying "contracts are not signed" and "no venue has been decided." Either way, we'll probably debate this out for a week or so and then the page will get re-created with newer verifiable information. Probably should keep it at this point, but I'm not going to lose any sleep if it gets deleted again. Tuckdogg (talk) 20:20, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep It is a notable event. If you are unhappy with the amount of "references" it'll only take a few minutes to add some. --businessman332211 (talk) 19:10, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep as a televised event sponsored by arguably the most prominent MMA institution in the world and the article has references. Best, --  Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles  Tally-ho! 01:35, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep per Tuckdogg, the lack of a place and time also bother me, but east718 is right when he says the event is inevitable and that Stupp is a reliable source. hateless 11:27, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
