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.
UFC Fight Night: Boetsch vs. Henderson takes place this Saturday night. We take the first half of this week’s episode to preview the fight card, a night that looks to be a pivotal one for the future of the legendary Dan Henderson.
We also check in with UFC fighter Elias “The Spartan” Theodorou and former UFC fighter Jesse “The Body Snatcher” Ronson, both of whom were in town for last weekend’s Global Warriors 2 show, as well as WSOF contender and TUF contestant Josh Hill, who was in the main event.
Later in the episode we run down this week in MMA including the UFC’s updated drug testing procedures, the Jon Jones crime scene video, Leslie Smith’s eventful night out, TJ Grant’s status, some recent UFC roster cuts, and last weekend’s UFC Fight Night: Condit vs. Alves results.
Hosted by Steve Jeffery, Dave Abraham, and Greg Persson.
