Watch Georgian fighters Ilia Topuria and Guaram Kutateladze score big knockouts at Brave CF 29.

MANAMA, Bahrain – It was a successful night in the office for Georgian MMA thanks to first-round knockouts for prospects [autotag]Ilia Topuria[/autotag] and [autotag]Guram Kutatladze[/autotag].

Training out of Spain, 22-year-old Georgian prospect Topuria (8-0 MMA, 2-0 BCF) remained unbeaten when he took out Steven Goncalves in the first round with a big overhand right at Brave CF 29. After being stumbled by a head kick, Topuria was able to show off a bit of his ground game by ducking under for the takedown and latching onto an anaconda choke. Once both fighters made it to their feet, Topuira was able to land the one-punch knockout, adding yet another finish to his resume.

Lightweight Kutateladze (11-2 MMA, 2-0 BCF) trains out of All Stars Gym in Sweden with the likes of Alexander Gustafsson and Ilir Latifi. Hailing from Georgia, Kutateladze engaged in 44 seconds of pure violence with Felipe Silva. He was backed up against the cage and briefly dropped, but in the midst of the flurry was able to land a beautifully timed counter left hook to take out Silva for his eighth straight win.
