Didn't Magneto start the final Apocalypse battle with his spherical bubble shield activated?
Magneto has stopped and manipulated bullets fired at point blank range both at himself and others and taken down an old school sentinel charging him in the finale of Days of Future Past when Magneto noticed the sentinel coming after him while combatting Logan.
All Magneto's gotta do is think and Hulk is getting bombarded or restrained with metal. If that doesn't incap Hulk, Mags throws up his shield and atomizes metal against Banner's face. Or wraps Hulk in metal and throws him into the Atlantic Ocean. Or throws him into orbit.
Lots of options for Eric, whereas Hulk only has jump and smash. Granted, that will turn Eric into paste, but Mags has a long history of quickdrawing his powers in creative ways that spell disaster for the charge in headfirst type of enemy.

Are you telling me Magneto already starts this fight with a shield up? Seems kinda unfair don't you think? Otherwise, how long do you think it takes him to put up a shield like that?
And I have no doubt that Magneto is fast enough to stop bullets or hirl them back while on the move. He can easily bombard Hulk with smallish projectiles. Problem is none of these will stop Hulk. To stop Hulk he needs something big, like the Eiffel tower, and that takes time. I don't recall Magneto ever doing a big feat fast and while dodging.
Like I said in my original post, the fight will depend on what materials are near by. If there are enough metallic objects around for Magneto to distarct Hulk with then he can win. But if all he's banking on is the Eiffel tower then Hulk will easily smash him long before he's able to bring it to bear.
^I figure near the Eiffel Tower you've got:
- lots of rebar
- steel cable
- light poles
Then you've got the tower itself, which makes me wonder if Magneto couldn't just start ripping it apart and wrapping up Hulk like a Christmas present in metal.
But, if he's gotta the whole tower down, then ya, Hulk does a falcon punch and turns Magneto into another Doug.
EDIT: Added content: by the above statement, I agree that, yes, Magneto won't have enough time to rage concentrate and bring it down on Hulk's head.
I'm still banking on wrap up Hulk to toss BFR or thousands of pieces of metal coming at atomization speeds at the Hulk's face for some wins.

Oh I have no problem with Magneto winning by using rebars and lightposts and cars. As long as they're strong enough to stop Hulk. I was simply pointing out that Mags won't have the time to spike Hulk with the tower or put up shields.
Hulk can cover 200ft in a single leap, which gives Mags 1-2 seconds to make his move. Hulk will easily tear through rebars and lightposts so Mags will need to make sure that he brings in dozens of them, all within a few seconds. If he doesn't he gets smashed.

Ok so at the ring of the bell, Hulk launches himself at Magneto. Mags has about a second before he gets smashed. What does he do? Pretty sure we've never seen him put up a shield that fast. How fast can he fly? How good is Magneto at dodging?
