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.
This week we are joined by fight journalist Shawn Smith (Sportsnet, Vice Sports) to discuss an extremely busy week in MMA. In the first half of the show we break down the UFC‘s updated weight cutting policy, Michael Bisping‘s just-announced Middleweight Championship fight at UFC 199, rumors of a UFC sale, details on the Flyweight season of The Ultimate Fighter, and some recent Bellator news including the release of “Ill” Will Brooks.
Then we take a look back on the results of last weekend’s UFC 198: Werdum vs. Miocic event including Stipe Miocic’s UFC Heavyweight Championship win, Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza’s solid claim to a shot at the UFC Middleweight Championship, and the impressive UFC debut of Cristine “Cyborg” Justino.
Hosted by Steve Jeffery, David Abraham and Greg Persson.
