There is no significant independent coverage of this organization and nothing to show notability. The article's only source is to a report on a fight that said that a WFCA title was on the line and that's just a passing mention.Mdtemp (talk) 20:23, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete, for now, per nom this article needs secondary sources. I wasnt able to find any on the google machine. However, this organization does seem to have, per their web site, global reach, so if so the secondary sources should be there. Maybe I'm missing them, but if the author can supply them there is no notability here.MartialArtsLEO (talk) 04:01, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Did you mean "unless the author can supply them" instead of "if ..."? Papaursa (talk) 22:49, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete My search found nothing to show this organization is notable. There's a definite lack of WP:SIGCOV--even the article lacks good sources. For an organization founded in 1997, I also think it's strange that all 64 of the full contact titles listed on its website are vacant [1]. Most of the titles for the other fighting rules (MMA, kickboxing, MT, etc.) are also vacant. The few world championship bouts that have been held are usually between two Dutch fighters (the WFCA is headquartered there). There is certainly no indication that this is a significant worldwide fighting organization. Papaursa (talk) 22:49, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
