At the age of 18, Hammer was discovered by her coach and trainer, Dimitri Kirnos, to which she stated: "Although I grew up in a small town, at age 18 I decided to become a professional boxer and moved away from home [...] Of course, it was not easy at first, but I knew I could do it if I pulled it off."
When Hammer was growing up, she admired Gennady Golovkin and Wladimir Klitschko as athletes, while stating she too admired "strong women like Jennifer Lopez who built their own empire".
Hammer competed for Eschwege Boxing Club at a number of German tournaments, in which she defeated the 2007 German junior champion, receiving a unanimous victory over former German champion Manon Rohrbach at 63 kg, and winning the International German Junior Championships in Berlin by defeating Madelyn Cibis (BC Oberhavel) RSC–1 at 75 kg.

The action was even at first, however, Hammer began to score repeatedly to the head of Perozzi in the later rounds.
Perozzi kept trying to press her offense but Hammer's right delivered the better shots in a fight that often looked closer than the scorecards suggested.

Hammer started aggressively and used her reach to control the action.
In the second half of the fight Hammer increased the pressure and Kiss began to bleed from her nose.
During the round break, Kiss signaled to her trainer that she was no longer willing to continue, thus Hammer winning by a TKO.

Hammer landed two accurate uppercuts in the seventh and Living appeared to be worn down by the taller Hammer's blows in the closing rounds.
After winning her silver medal at the German National Championships, Hammer had briefly considered competing in the 2012 London Olympics, but her ambition to become a super champion was greater.
On 5 April 2012, at the Sportovní hala Vodova in Brno, Czech Republic, Hammer made her third defense of her WBF and WBO middleweight titles, in which she impressively dominated the proceedings to retain her titles with a unanimous decision win over Julie Tshabalala of South Africa.
Hammer had predicted a knockout victory, with Tshabalala taking the fight on the inside to avoid the long range and hard straight shots from Hammer, who adjusted nicely and countered with hooks and uppercuts.
Tshabalala had her best moments in rounds six and seven, and seemed to be catching her second wind, but Hammer was back on top in the final three rounds, making Tshabalala miss and pay for her mistakes.
She also challenged once for the WBO female light-middleweight title in 2014 and once for the undisputed female middleweight championship against Claressa Shields in 2019.
