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 Network Analyst and Commentator Robin Black to discuss the upcoming UFC 189: Mendes vs. McGregor event.
Robin hosts an incredible series of fight breakdowns called Five Rounds, so there’s no one better to help us predict a fight with as many variables as this upcoming UFC Interim Featherweight Championship fight between Chad Mendes and Conor McGregor. The fight itself is so intriguing that we spend the entire first half of our show talking about it.
In the second half of the episode we do our best to preview as many additional fights as possible from the rest of Saturday night’s UFC 189, as well as from Sunday night’s The Ultimate Fighter 21 Finale.
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.
