Hammer 205: The UFC 178 Press Conference and More

The Boys at the Hammer feature weekly coverage of all things MMA. They have one of the premier radio shows in the world of MMA broadcasted weekly on Wednesday nights on 93.3 FM, CFMU and here at Last Word on Sports.

Lack of UFC Cards

With last Saturday’s ill-fated UFC 176 show cancelled, we are left with no UFC cards to discuss at all this week. That’s a rare event these days.

The UFC 178 Press Conference

There’s a World Series of Fighting 12 shappening this weekend, but what we really want to talk about is Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier mixing it up at a press conference. We spend the first half of this week’s show discussing all of the pushing, set breaking and shoe-throwing that is currently leading up to UFC 178: Jones vs. Cormier on September 27th.

Manny Pacquiiao and the News of the Week

Following that we get into the rest of the week’s news including Manny Pacquiao and One FC, Mark Bocek’s retirement, injuries and replacements, Bellator, recent UFC cuts, and more.

The Hammer features long time internet superstar and LWOS writer Steve Jeffery, prediction guru Greg Persson and is hosted by MMA aficionado Dave Abraham.

The Hammer has had interviews with some of the biggest names in MMA over the years, including Anderson Silva, Georges St. Pierre, Matt Hughes, BJ Penn, Dan Henderson, Sean Sherk, Mark Coleman, Rory MacDonald, Brendan Schaub, Mark Bocek, John Makdessi, Mark Hominick, Martin Kampmann, Johnny Hendricks, TJ Grant, Miesha Tate, and others.

They continue to bring unparalleled, independent coverage of all things MMA to fans of the sport and they always bring you straight goods and the last word. They are recognized and credentialed by UFC, Bellator, Invicta, and many other smaller MMA promotions.

The show is one of the voters for the UFC’s Official Rankings, and you can check out their articles, right here at LWOS, explaining the thought processes they go through in making changes to their ballots after every UFC show.
