Lane, being extremely trained in this kind of combat, tightened his abbs right before the hit, lessening the damage, afterwards he jumped and ran about 15 yards (using his supa speeds) before turning around and saying, "I think I understand how your power coinside with each other. You use your mental attacking ability to cause your opponent's mind to freeze, but if they're quick enough to retaliate anyways, you can harden your fur instantly to minimize the damage taken. You are a larger threat than I thought."
Lane then charged his fists with fire, and put a 'flaming' (not literally) barrier around his mind. "Let's see if your hardened fur is strong enough to not be burned."
