Austen Lane eager to throw down with Vitor Petrino at UFC Nashville: “The dude is always down to brawl”

Austen Lane expects to KO Vitor Petrino

Lane enters UFC Nashville as a sizeable underdog, but he has confidence he will get his hand raised.

Austen Lane believes if he sticks to his game plan, he will be able to pick his shots and eventually KO Vitor Petrino.

“I mean, I think so, the dude is always down to brawl,” Lane said. “We have some game plans in place. Some guys I train with know him, so we have an idea of what he is going to do. What it comes down to is whether he can handle the power or not; it’s about fighting my fight. It’s doing what I do well and dictating the fight and my pace… What it comes down to is me being patient and me being long. I know I have the power that if I touch you, you will go down.”

Should Lane win, he isn’t sure what it does for him in the division, but is hoping it will gain him plenty of fans.

“It’s kind of wide open. I have no idea where it puts me. All I know is it is a win, and when I’m talking about a win, I want a fan-pleasing win,” Lane concluded.
