“Surprises Are Possible” –RAJU CEO about Upcoming Fight
“This will be an exciting clash. While it’s easy to assume that two strong kickboxers will simply deliver a kickboxing match, in MMA things don’t always go that way, and surprises are possible,” said Ott Tõnissaar, CEO of Evecon Raju.
“One thing is certain: Allan has been given a worthy challenge for his debut, and the fight will deliver thrills from the opening bell until the final second—no matter when and how it ends.”
Evecon Raju 18 will take place on 20 September at Tondiraba Ice Hall in Tallinn.
