Jerome Le Banner Gives Up, Walks Off During K-1 Fight With Kyotaro

by Michael David SmithJerome Le Banner battles Kyotaro at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2010 Final 16.In one of the strangest endings you'll ever see in any sporting event, K-1 legend Jerome Le Banner fought a brutal three-round battle with his opponent Kyotaro, then walked out of the ring and refused to fight a fourth overtime round when the judges ruled the first three rounds a draw.

"I left when the judges said it was a draw. No, It was not a draw. I had one more point," Le Banner said after the fight. "It was not fair. They wanted something more, it was not fair. It was not fair."

As a result, Kyotaro was ruled the winner of the match by forfeit. So Kyotaro wins at the K-1 World Grand Prix 2010 Final 16 in Seoul and will advance to the Final 8 in December.
