Lane, who held the official MMA record of 12-10-1 had a long career in combat sports. After fighting in UFC, he turned bare knuckle. Through this fight, he was testing his boxing skills for the first time in the pro ring. In the co-main event of the Pravda Fight Championship in Russia, he faced the less-known kickboxer Tuinov.

While everyone’s eyes were set on Lane, the kickboxer did his job and scored a spectacular knockdown. The clip of the final round circulating on social media shows that he was completely dominating in his boxing debut.

After getting hit with a left hook in the initial second of the second round, he pressed toward the kickboxer with a jab and a right hook. While unleashing the body shot, he left a huge opening that cost him dearly. The kickboxer caught him again with a counter-left hook that seized him in the center of the ring. Though he tried hard to escape the judge’s count, he could not and lost the bout by decision.
