Saturday night's "UFC 109: Relentless" will be the promotion's third event in 2010, taking place in Las Vegas Nevada at the Mandalay Bay Events Center. The MMASpot staff has sat down to discuss our thoughts on this exciting event full of veterans of the sport.
In the main event of the evening, Randy "The Natural" Couture faces Mark "The Hammer" Coleman at 205 pounds.
