Comment: Couple problems here. First, the IBJJF sources are all WP:ABOUTSELF and don't help this article with notability. If you can find secondary coverage of this, that would be preferable. Tapology appears to be a rote profile and therefore does not constitute WP:SIGCOV. The second FloGrappling source is tagged as an interview, see WP:INTERVIEWS. BJJ Heroes and the first FloGrappling source look fine at a glance. guninvalid (talk) 16:36, 30 November 2025 (UTC)
