Public-record summary

North Platte professional flyweight with six wins, four losses and one no contest. All six wins are finishes; current gym affiliation needs confirmation because public listings differ.

Verification notes

01All six listed wins are finishes

02September 22 reconciliation: the September 20, 2025 Dre Miley bout was overturned to a no contest. That explains Sherdog’s extra loss; the retained ledger is 6–4, 1 NC, with two TKOs and four submissions. Gym listings differ (6910N1 versus Vicious Cycle); current affiliation remains to be confirmed.

03Age is calculated from the birth date listed in the linked Sherdog source; this is a public-source value, not an independently checked identity document.

Why this fighter is ranked here

Editorial decision

01Six professional wins, all finishes, and a March 2026 flyweight title victory support his current placement.

02The Dre Miley no contest is retained instead of the superseded disqualification loss. No ranking change was made during this factual correction.

Evidence standard

01Completed results control; announcements never count as outcomes.

02MMA, bare-knuckle MMA, boxing, kickboxing, and Muay Thai records stay separate.

03Conflicts remain visible until stronger evidence resolves them.

NFI ratings

Audited MMA résumé + preliminary tool evaluation. A double-digit professional sample and complete win-method split support the shape of the file; defense needs more recent film. Rankings remain résumé-first; the linked research ledger controls record, activity, and opponent-history claims.

  • Six professional wins, all by stoppage, plus a March 2026 flyweight title victory create a strong divisional case.
  • The 6–4, 1 NC ledger follows the commission-linked record; Sherdog currently adds one loss where other sources retain a no contest.
  • The source conflict and four official losses keep him below the cleaner top-four résumé tier.
  • All six listed professional wins are finishes
  • Four submission wins and two knockout wins
  • Recent 2026 win supports the current activity grade
