I know it's early but I love Lombard over Magney at -135. Magney cannot take Lombard down and he can only out point Hector. Hector can take Magney down and land the bigger shots. This will be a 3 rounder too so Magney can't get much of a cardio advantage. I think Magney is a bit overrated. He won a couple splits that could have gone against him. Yeah Lombard is older, hasn't fought in a while, and should be off his supplements but he's still a beast.
Talk to me when the line is out.. It's all about the odds. Oooops the odds are out, not bad at -145...

Magny is longer, younger, better endurance and can win rounds on points standing but the 38 year old Hector has the power punching and certainly the ground dominance for sure.. If Hector doesn't finish early I give Magny a chance in the later rounds if he can defend the td's and keep distance.. Big if even with that...
