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. You can hear this week’s show here: Hammer Radio 180.
This week we are joined by Sportsnet’s James Lynch (@lynchonsports) to help us preview Saturday night’s UFC 169: Barao vs. Faber event. We discuss the Bantamweight title fight, Jose Aldo vs. Ricardo Lamas for the Featherweight title, Frank Mir. vs. Alistair Overeem for job security, and the rest of a pretty stacked card.
Then we look back at some of the week’s biggest MMA news including the respective retirements of Chris Leben and Pat Barry, the 2014 Canadian UFC event schedule, some UFC Brazil drama, Bellator’s latest tournament announcements, and last weekend’s controversial UFC On Fox: Henderson vs. Thomson fight.
The Hammer features sportseventsguide’ Greg Persson, long time internet superstar Steve Jeffery, and is hosted by MMA aficionado Dave Abraham.
The Hammer has had interviews with some of the biggest names in MMA over the years, including Georges St. Pierre, Matt Hughes, BJ Penn, Dan Henderson, Sean Sherk, Mark Coleman, Rory MacDonald, Brendan Schaub, Mark Bocek, John Makdessi, Mark Hominick, Martin Kampmann, Johnny Hendricks, TJ Grant, and others.
