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 network TV again this weekend for UFC On Fox: Teixeira vs Evans. While this show was hurt by losing the original main event of Tony Ferguson vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov, it still features big names in big fights including Glover Teixeira vs. Rashad Evans, Rose Namajunas vs. Tecia Torres, and a short notice replacement fight for Khabib Nurmagomedov. We preview the entire card during the first half of this week’s episode.
In the second half of the show we discuss the past week in MMA including Lyoto Machida and Frank Mir’s USADA test failures, the updated UFC 200 card, the return of B.J. Penn, the cancellation of this month’s Ultimate Fighter tryouts, the death of Joao Carvalho, the upcoming Bellator 152, and the results of last weekend’s UFC Fight Night: Rothwell vs. Dos Santos.
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.
