August fight booked
Kutateladze will take on Abdul-Kareem Al-Selwady in a lightweight matchup at UFC Abu Dhabi on August 3, Farah Hannoun of MMAJunkie.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Kutateladze fights infrequently and will have been on the sidelines for a year between fights again here, which could work against him in his attempt to snap a two-fight losing streak. Al-Selwady is also coming off a loss -- a third-round knockout at the hands of Loik Radzhaov in March. Kutateladze will enter this matchup with three-inch height and reach advantages.

Falls as monumental favorite
Kutateladze lost to Elves Brener via TKO (punches) at 3:17 of Round 3 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
What a disaster. Stepping in for Jordan Leavitt on a few weeks' notice and entering as an overwhelming -700 favorite, Kutateladze was getting the better of a wild back-and-forth brawl and won each of the first two rounds on all three judges scorecards, but he never appeared to be fully comfortable during the bout. There's zero question Guram had a significant power edge. He probably would have finished Brener late in Round 2 if there had been just a handful of more seconds on the clock, but one short shot from Brener early in the final frame forced Kutateladze to the mat, forcing referee Chris Tognoni to step in. It was likely the combination of a damaging blow and Kutateladze being totally exhausted which resulted in the finish. Guram being rising lightweight star Mateusz Gamrot in his company debut back in October 2020, but he's gone on to lose two in a row since.

Visa issues forced withdrawal
