On notablility grounds. The article is effectively unsourced since all references are dead links. Even if they were active they are all to primary sources. High rank is not a claim to notability. Peter Rehse (talk) 11:03, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No indication that he meets the notability criteria for martial artists and there doesn't appear to be any significant independent coverage of him. Papaursa (talk) 00:48, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete High rank doesn't show notability. Fails WP:MANOTE and WP:GNG with no independent sources (even before they became dead links).Mdtemp (talk) 18:53, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
