The "Le Banner Series" is getting kicked off on April 28 in Geneva, Switzerland. Jerome Le Banner fights in the main event and there's a one night, four man tournament featuring Frank Munoz and Stephane Susperregui.

The objective of this series of events is to find a replacement for Jerome Le Banner. Throughout the series, tournaments will be staged and the winners of the tournaments will fight each other to determine who fights Jerome Le Banner in 2013. The tournament on this card pits Frank Munoz vs. Yuksel Ayadin on one end of the bracket and Stephane Susperregui vs. Agibane Fernandez. The tournament fights are three rounds of two minutes.

In the main event, Jerome Le Banner fights veteran Arnold Oborotov, defending his WKN Kickboxing World Title. This fight is five rounds of two minutes.

Two time veteran of Fight Code, Yoann Kongolo returns to the ring after a victory at Fight Code's March 24 show and fights Malik Aliane at -82kg. Gaylod Montier vs. Amin Zitouni is a fun fight on the card, which takes place at -54kg. The non-tournament fights that aren't the main event are four rounds of two minutes. All fights aside from the main event are K-1 rules. The rules in Le Banner's fight are pretty similar, though.
