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.
The UFC returns to the Fox network this Saturday night for UFC On Fox: Johnson vs Bader, an event headlined by a high-level Light Heavyweight matchup between Anthony “Rumble” Johnson and Ryan Bader. We spend most of this week’s episode previewing that card, which also includes the biggest showcase yet for Sage Northcutt.
In the second half of the show we look at the changes to UFC 196, Ronda Rousey’s appearance on Saturday Night Live, the retirement of Anthony Perosh, the suspension of Gleison Tibau, and the upcoming Bellator 148.
Hosted by Steve Jeffery, David 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.
