Maraapunisaurus
Length: 31 meters Weight: 50-120 tonnes (GSP Estimated 80-120 tonnes, Franoys got about 51 IIRC) Time Period: Late Jurassic Where: Morrison Formation, Colorado Weapons: Size, front claws, tail
Maraapunisaurus is one of the (if not THE) largest land animals of all time. Long regarded a Diplodocid, it has been reclassified as a Rebbachisaurid.
Argentinosaurus
Length: 30-39 meters Weight: 70-100 tonnes Time Period: Mid-late Cretaceous Where: Argentina Weapons: Size, front claws, tail Argentinosaurus is considered the largest Sauropod known from good remains. Weight estimates vary, but all agree it was massive, possibly being the largest ever.

I would think this is probably around 50/50, given that they're fairly similar sized and very similar overall. The size estimates do vary a lot and either could be bigger, but they're broadly comparable overall with large error margins.

Argentinosaurus might be the one who wins, though it and Maraapunisaurus do come close in size.

To my knowledge, Argentinosaurus is the largest sauropod.

Essentially yeah, and that's why Argentinosaurus would come out on top as the winner.

To my knowledge, Argentinosaurus is the largest sauropod. GSP gives 100-120 tonnes for Maraapunisaurus in 2019

Given both are close in size, the fight would be almost 50/50. These souropods are going to be feasting side to side peacefully unless they are fighting for territory or dominance.
