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.
Nick Diaz has been suspended by the Nevada Athletic Commission for an unprecedented five years, following his marijuana test failure back in January of this year. On this week’s episode we obviously have a lot to say about the prospect of spending half of a decade without Nick Diaz.
Then we preview the enormous Bellator & Glory: Dynamite card taking place this Saturday night, featuring Tito Ortiz challenging for the Bellator Light Heavyweight Championship against Liam McGeary, a one-night only Light Heavyweight Tournament, and a bunch of Glory kickboxing fights in a completely seperate ring.
If that 20-plus fight behemoth of a show isn’t enough MMA for this week, we also take a quick look at the upcoming itan FC and World Series of Fighting cards, as well as the results of last weekend’s Invicta FC 14: Evinger vs. Kianzad.
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.
