Guram Kutateladze has been fighting in professional MMA since 2010 and has, so far, amassed a 12-3 record.
He had his UFC lightweight debut in 2020… And, just a couple of days ago, has been promoted to the rank of a BJJ black belt as well!
Kutateladze shared the phenomenal feeling:
I don’t know what to say or write. Didn’t have words then, don’t have any now.
I’m just thankful. And I know that this is the start of another journey and roller coaster.
I will try to describe it, if I can. I want to share a little piece of this journey. Even if my coaches will have willing to slap me for that, but I will always think, that I don’t deserve this belt.
But I will always prove, that it is well deserved.
It’s been a long journey for him:
I met and start training with my friend, big brother, mentor, role model and a coach Tomasz Rajca, for approximately 12 years ago, as soon as I arrive to Sweden.
After my Japanese Jiu Jitsu black belt , my dream was to become a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt, one day.
And this road and path looked to be too far away.We went through a lot together, in sports and private life too.
All the hours inside and outside of the mats, developing and improving as an athlete and a human being. Building things from the scratch.
