Bolas and Ugin fought each other in the distant past, but the reason for their fight has not yet been revealed. What conflict did they have with each other? How did they each learn of the other's existence, and why did they fight?
What does everyone else say about this? Will the reason for Bolas and Ugin's fight be revealed?

All we know is that Bolas learned everything about the Eldrazi from this fight, getting this directly from Ugin's mind. Was that the reason for the conflict, or just a consequence? We don't know. Yet.
Very rough timeline:
~5,000 years ago: Ugin, Sorin and Nahiri seal the Eldrazi in Zendikar.
~1,000 years ago: Bolas and Ugin battle. Ugin dies.
~500 years ago: Tetsuo Umezawa kills Bolas
~100 years ago: Nicol Bolas returns. The Mending happens.
~10 years ago: Sarkhan starts hearing draconic voices; becomes planeswalker.
Less than five years ago: due to Bolas's manipulations, Sarkhan, Chandra and Jace meet in Zendikar, unsealing the Eye of Ugin and freeing the Eldrazi.
Right now: Sarkhan returns to Tarkir, and the voice in his head is confirmed to be Ugin.

Wasn't it confirmed in the article keeping up to date with the planeswalkers that the Eldrazi getting set free happend 2 years prior to the current storyline?

Pity it can't really just be Bolas presenting himself as Ugin...
There isn't anything else to say.
