Julian Lane is a BKFC fan favorite for his antics, personality, but most of all for his ‘Let Me Bang’ style! He earned his nickname on the Ultimate Fighter when he went viral for breaking down at the beginning of the season because of his sheer desire to go out and fight. Since then Julian Lane is synonymous with wars in the cage or in our case the Squared Circle. 

He fought at lightweight in mixed martial arts and entered the BKFC in the early days, back in 2019. He debuted against Leonard Garcia at BKFC 4 USA vs Mexico. Lane did have a couple of bare-knuckle fights under his belt before fighting under the BKFC banner so he jumped in at a high level. He has defeated some real BKFC legends like Tom Shoaff and Jake Bostwick and fell to some incredible talent like Thiago Alves and Mike Perry. He became the welterweight champion at BKFC Sturgis in 2025 when he defeated Gogo Slaveski via decision.

Lane began fighting in 2008 and has built a reputation in the MMA world as a nasty submission threat which makes him do his best work in close with the gloves removed. Lane is, however, dangerous wherever the fight goes and has a chin that can take some massive shots. 

Julian Lane is a father to four girls and is proud of every single one of them. He loves firearms and hanging with the boys when he’s got the time. Lane also leans into his faith and calls himself “God’s Warrior.”
