Professional career

On December 5, 2009 Tyner lost to the Mexican Canelo Álvarez.[2] All his losses have been quality, coming to Mike Arnaoutis, Lamont Peterson and Canelo Álvarez.[3] Lanardo upset welterweight prospect Antwone "The Truth" Smith in the ninth by knockout.[4]

On January 1, 2011 Tyner announced to Chicago Boxing New's Richard Spilotro that he is willing and able to jump down a weight class and fight at the Junior welterweight division. Many ring insiders believe this move will suit Tyner, mainly due to the size difference he was facing at welterweight.

On July 15, 2011, Tyner defeated the former WBA Jr welterweight champion Vivian Harris during Cynthia Tolaymat's CFC Promotions "Chicago Fight Night #2". With the win, Tyner earned the USBO welterweight title.[5]

On August 18, 2012, Tyner defeated then-undefeated Charles Hatley in a one-round TKO, and won the vacant WBC United States (USNBC) welterweight title.[6]
