Evecon Raju 17 is bringing world-class English commentary to fight night, ensuring that fans worldwide can experience the action with expert analysis and in-depth fight breakdowns. We’re excited to introduce our two English commentators, who will bring their deep knowledge and energy to the event.
Steve Stewart – Cage-Side Commentary & Post-Fight Interviews
A seasoned combat sports commentator, Steve Stewart will be calling the action live from cage-side, delivering real-time fight analysis and expert insights. In addition to commentary, he will also conduct post-fight interviews inside the cage, bringing fans exclusive reactions and breakdowns directly from the fighters themselves.
“RAJU 17 has the makings of an exciting night with rising up-and-comers and experienced professionals alike. I’m looking forward to it and absolutely honored for the opportunity to help the international audience experience Raju for the first time,” says Stewart.
Daniel Schälander – From Behind the Camera to the Commentary Booth
A familiar face, Daniel Schälander was part of Raju 12, but in a different role – as a photographer and writer. With an MMA amateur background, Daniel has a deep understanding of the sport and has recently been capturing the UFC’s biggest moments as a photographer. Now, he steps into the commentary booth, offering technical insights and a fighter’s perspective to elevate the viewing experience.
“It’s a great honor being part of Raju, the pinnacle of Baltic Mixed Martial Arts. With some of the most prolific fighters in the Baltics, it’s a must-see for fans in the region. As a big fan of the old-school tournament MMA years, I’m very excited to see the U21 tournament take place, where we get to witness the stars of tomorrow tackle the pressure of stepping into the cage twice in one night to claim the top spot and walk home with the €1000 cash prize,” says Schälander.
With Steve Stewart’s live reactions and Daniel Schälander’s technical expertise, Evecon Raju 17’s English commentary team will bring fans closer to the action than ever before. Tune in live and experience the fights with expert analysis!
