I can achieve the same error by removing /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/packages/ssl_match_hostname and creating the directory in the same location instead. So solution can be just removing this directory (or just renaming it):

# mv /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/packages/ssl_match_ hostname /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/urllib3/packages/ssl_match_hostname.backup

# yum update python-urllib3

Can someone look at this and tell me if this is a packaging problem or a problem with my machine and how to fix it?

I ran yum clean metadata before the yum update run but no change.
