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.
Ronda Rousey returns to the Octagon for UFC 193: Rousey vs. Holm. This will be the first UFC event in Melbourne, as well as the first time that both the UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion and the UFC Women’s Strawweight Champion will be defending their titles on the same show. On this week’s episode we break down all of the fights taking place that night.
In the second half of the episode we discuss a ton of recent MMA news including the unexpected retirement of Mirko Cro Cop, the somewhat expected retirement of Alan Belcher, the insane announcement an upcoming Ken Shamrock vs. Royce Gracie fight, New Year’s Eve Breakfast With Fedor, and the results of last weekend’s UFC Fight Night: Belfort vs. Henderson and Bellator 145: Vengeance events.
