A professional since 2009, the 27-year-old southpaw is coming off of a controversial technical decision loss to fellow prospect Aaron Martinez in July of last year, and he can’t wait to get back in the ring and get back in the win column.

A Philadelphia fighter to the core, 29-year-old Lanard Lane (13-1, 8 KO’s) may make his home in Houston these days, but when the going gets tough, he is ready to throw down and make his fellow Philly warriors proud.
