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 Fight Pass event taking place this coming Saturday has lost both it’s main event (Dustin Poirier vs. Joseph Duffy), and it’s co-main event (Ben Rothwell vs. Stipe Miocic) due to injury. On this week’s episode we preview what’s left of the newly titled UFC Fight Night: Holohan vs. Smolka. Yeah we know. It’s not that exciting.
In the second half of the show we run down the long list of UFC fighters who were cut this week, Rick Hawn and Nick Newell’s retirements, another Jason “Mayhem” Miller arrest, Reebok’s controversial new Ireland t-shirt, the World Series of Fighting: Fitch vs. Okami results, and this weekend’s Bellator 144: Halsey vs. Carvalho.
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.
