One of MMA’s great trilogies came to a sudden end on this day in 2010.
The UFC Octagon has hosted some iconic trilogies over the years, with Tito Ortiz’s feud with Ken Shamrock culminating in a record-breaking bout.

Although Amanda Nunes is willing to fight Valentina Shevchenko a third and final time, despite having beaten her twice before, the trilogies are usually a chance for one of the competitors to get the last say.
The co-main welterweight event at UFC 123, held in Auburn Hills Michigan, was a perfect example of this.
