This first installment will kick off with the torrid 2003 rematch between heated rivals Wanderlei Silva and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.

And speaking of superstars, pound for pound great Anderson Silva collides with former UFC welterweight champ Carlos Newton, and Mauricio “Shogun” Rua squares off against former UFC heavyweight champ Kevin Randleman.
