UFN 85: Magny defeats Lombard in insane comeback

Welterweights Neil Magny vs Hector Lombard fought in the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 85, with Mangy winning in the third round of ONE INSANE FIGHT.

Magny survived a hellacious 8-10 loss in the first round, but Lombard tired at the end, perhaps having punched himself out. The second round went back and forth, with Magny surging and dominating the end, raining punches from back mount, having nearly finished a triangle, and likely earning an 10-8.

Magny won via strikes from a mounted triangle early in the third.
