You can't assert his motivations for being a moo, therefore, you can't assert the merit of moo forms in his eyes, even outside of the context of this piece. Define in concrete terms his previous training and you might be able to, assuming you can show that there was no non-martial reason for his presence in the moo. Yet, At the very least, the ommission of the moo portion of his history from his own bio does not lend itself well to what you are trying to suggest.
See, you are trying to dispel the 'myth' of Alex Guttierez, but that myth is based off of a piece about other people. Disprove Alex as a prodigy(which you have not), and you still do not answer why students were punished for liking him after he was gone, do you?
