Ilia
Topuria and his brother Aleksandre
were in attendance for Guram
Kutateladze’s engagement party.

Kutateladze recently got engaged to his partner, Erika Nielsen.
Ilia and Aleksandre were seen rejoicing and congratulating their
longtime friend and teammate. This is one of the few occasions the
former two-division
Ultimate Fighting Championship titleholder has been spotted
without sunglasses since his title loss to Justin
Gaethje at
UFC Freedom 250.

Ilia Topuria’s latest public appearance comes at Guram
Kutateladze’s celebration

Kutateladze was a highly touted prospect going into his UFC debut
in 2020 and lived up to the hype with a split decision win over
Mateusz
Gamrot. However, “Georgian Viking” endured an inconsistent UFC
stint thereafter, going 3-3 in the promotion. He was released from
the UFC following a loss to Kaue
Fernandes last year and has since scored a first-round knockout
win over fellow UFC veteran Victor
Hugo on the regional circuit.

The friendship between Kutateladze and the Topuria brothers goes
all the way back to their Georgian roots. Ilia’s initial beef with
Paddy
Pimblett had started when the Liverpool native insulted Georgia
during an online spat with Kutateladze in 2021.

Kutateladze’s engagement party marks one of the handful of
occasions Topuria has been seen publicly since losing his
lightweight belt in a bout wherein he suffered extensive facial
damage. “El Matador” was also seen celebrating Spain’s World Cup
victory and was recently spotted in Ibiza.
