BFN Group Presents: It's Showtime Brussels was a kickboxing event promoted by the It's Showtime organization in association with BFN Group. The event was held at the The Event Lounge in Brussels, Belgium on Saturday, March 26, 2011. It was the 47th event hosted by the organization and the first held in Belgium since 2009. It featured five super fights with two of them heralding the beginning of the new 73 MAX weight class – a weight class division brought in by It’s Showtime due to the recent trend of fighters dropping down from the 77MAX division to fight at 70 kg.[1] As well as super fights there was also a world title fight for the It's Showtime 61 kg belt, with Sergio Wielzen hoping to make his second successful defence of his belt, with all bouts (super and title) fought under 'It's Showtime' (K-1) rules. In total there were twelve fighters at the event, representing seven countries.

The 61MAX world title fight resulted in a new champion, with the 23 year old French fighter Karim Bennoui defeating Sergio Wielzen over five rounds by majority decision. Other results saw Belgium based Armenian Marat Grigorian defeat Severiano Rijssel in what was a warm up for Grigorian's forthcoming world title fight for the vacant 73MAX belt at the It's Showtime event to be held in Lyon later that year.
