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.
Jose Aldo’s rib injury has officially removed him from the main event of UFC 189, and now Chad Mendes is stepping up to face Conor McGregor for the UFC Interim Featherweight Championship. We start off this week’s episode discussing this turn of events and what this new fight means for one of the biggest MMA events of 2015.
Then in the second half of the show we are joined by Invicta FC Bantamweight contender Tonya Evinger, who will be facing Irene Aldana for the vacant Bantamweight Championship at Invicta FC 13 on July 9th, 2015.
Finally, we look back on the results of last weekend’s UFC Fight Night: Romero vs. Machida, including the controversal post-fight interview with Yoel Romero, and also discuss the pros and cons of the first display of Reebok’s new line of UFC apparel.
Hosted by Steve Jeffery, Dave Abraham, and Greg Persson.
Listen to us Wednesday nights at 6:30pm on CFMU 93.3 FM, and online at http://www.thehammermma.com, Last Word On Sports, The Itunes Store, Stitcher, MMAPodcast.com, Player.FM, find @SteveJeffery on Twitter, or just email us.
