This yet to happen sports event fails WP:FUTURE, a whole range of WP notability guidelines (WP:EVENT, WP:SPORTSEVENT and WP:MMAEVENT). It is currently only sourced to either to UFC's own website or specialist MMA web sources, there is no indication that the coverage that this event will get will be nothing more than the routine type all professional sports events get and as a result this fails the WP:NOTNEWSPAPER policy because it fails to demonstrate why or how it will have any enduring notability as an event. It therefore can, and is, more than adequately covered in 2012 in UFC events. It also Fails WP:IRS as it is sourced completely from MMA Fansites. Because of these issues it also has problems with CONTINUING COVERAGE, WP:RECENT,ETC Newmanoconnor (talk) 18:44, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
Keep I have no idea why this article is nominated for deletion. Every UFC event from 148 to 1 has an article here on Misplaced Pages. Every UFC event that gets announced has an article several months ahead of time, just look around. It has never been a problem before, I have no idea why this user is flagging this article for deletion now. You're breaking a routine that's been in place for several years and has never been a problem before. It's even more surprising that, of all the events you would flag, you would choose this one which is going to contain 2 championship bouts and one of the biggest and most hyped rematches in the history of the sport.

- Strong Speedy Keep. What is up with this mass AfDing of UFC Event articles? This event clearly meets WP:MMAEVENT. It's an event held by the most prominent MMA organization in the world and the co-main events are two title fights. This AfD is patently absurd. --NINTENDUDE 22:30, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
