So watching TUF 10 and seeing the stand off after Rampages fight, every one seems to think this the biggest rivalry... What is your opinion on the biggest rivalry and or some notable ones? IMO Ortiz/Shamrock is one we all know.... and personsonally loved watchin Ortiz beat the crap out of Shamrock.... what do you guys think?

As far as actual rivalries, Tito vs Lions Den and Tito vs Shamrock tops them all.
Not really many others pop out that were controversial or heated.
Severn/Gracie
Severn/Shamrock
Couture/Liddell
Penn/GSP
GSP/Hughes
Vitor/Randy
Mir/Sims
Brock/Mir
Really any fighters that have fought more than once could be considered a rivalry.

The Gracies vs. Sakuraba is what I would call the biggest simply because the Gracies ARE MMA and Sakuraba alone dismantled the aura they carried. To bad Rickson was to worried about his perfect record to step into the ring with Sakuraba.
