Austen Lane has pronounced for the first time since he suffered a devastating defeat at UFC Vegas 103.
The former NFL star was cold eliminated by a debutant, who moved to 10-0 on the UFC Apex on Saturday evening.
Austen Lane looked great in the first round when he benefited from the apparent octagonal tickles of his opponents.
The first man to defeated Tom Aspinall, however, Mario Pinto gave perfect advice in the middle of the fight before he slept the ex-Jacksonville Jaguar with a huge upper hand right only 31 seconds in round two.

Austen Lane breaks silence after UFC Vegas 103
Of course Lane was not interviewed in the immediate aftermath of his brutal knockout loss.
Only on Sunday evening fans received an update of the 13-6 heavyweight.
“Last night a difficult lesson was learned,” Lane wrote in a statement on his Instagram account.
“Everything went according to plan and then I decided in the 2nd round to fight myself outside, to deviate from the game plan and to hunt a knock -out. It cost me everything.
“My coaches had a winning strategy and my preparation was there. I just didn't do what to do and that falls on me and only me. For everyone who supported me, I appreciate you. I'm sorry I didn't do the job.
“For the people who want to hate, it's all good. I have nothing but love for you. This sport offered me peace when I needed it the most in my life and negativity of strangers will be the last that ever that peace disturbs.
“Life goes on, my son still thinks that I am the coolest person in the world and I am loved by those who matter the most. So I will never have a room to complain or feel sorry for myself. The sun will shine again. I'll see Yah when I see Yah. “
Mario Pinto will reject his UFC debut performance
Pinto earned one of the wildest finishes for a UFC debut that you will ever see. But despite the fact that he put on the heavyweight card last weekend, the 26-year-old did not really think about his performance.
During a press conference after the fight, the UFC Vegas 103 noticed striking 'absolute waste' and explained why he places the viral ko to the bottom of his best victory list of all time.
“What did I spoke? “Oh, absolutely waste!” “Said Pinto.
“But it's good, waste is good … it's not how I usually fight from my previous versions, but a bit of the jitters, it is heavyweight, everyone has strength. So I just waited a bit too long and scaled up for a little too long, but I got the job.
“It just took the time to persuade the tractor, and I think I was too lost at the moment, tried to be too perfect. It is a fight, and I am very lucky and happy that I shouted my coach against me … I had much more to show, I showed it in earlier fights … even on my worst days, I get the job. “
