When Elves Brener and Guram Kutateladze bumped into the Octagon in 2023, they put one of the wildest fights in the recent memory.
The coming Saturday at UFC Vegas 108, Chute Boxe Prospect Elves Brener will return to action when he hires fellow light weight fighters Esteban Riabovics.
The Brazilian 27-year-old wants to jump back from disappointing back-to-back losing against mytybek Orolbai and Joel Alvarez, a step back in the quality of the opponent.
Brener hopes to return to the form that he saw from behind to score a crazy victory against the teammate of Ilia Topuria in just his second outing in the promotion.

Brener conquered a horror injury to finish Guram Kutateladze
After beating Khabib Nurmagomedov's teammate Zubaira Tukhugov in his debut outing, Brener was linked to Guram Kutateladze, who was a shock at the time, given that some of the victories had already picked up.
The two started to throw down early in the fight, but 'the Georgian Viking' was brought down by Brener for only a few seconds when he looked to put top pressure.
Nevertheless, he could not keep the Georgian on the floor for long, as long as Kutateladze came back on his feet and his striking combinations would continue to land.
And when with just over 10 seconds of the first round, Guram scored a huge knockdown after landing a brutal elbow followed by a right hand, but the Brazilian recovered on time and was then saved by the bell.
Again in round two, Guram landed some huge shots that meant that Brener was trying to bring the fight to the ground. However, after Guram turned the position on the ground, he landed a huge elbow that opened a huge cut on Brener's forehead as he leaked blood over the octagon.
After a back and forth around two where the Brazilian showed his heart, he came out in round three, knowing that he probably needed a finish to win.
And with a little more than a minute and a half of the final round, what seemed like the impossible happened when Brener landed a huge left hand who dropped the Georgian and then finished the fight with huge ground and pounds.
Brener sent Charles Oliveira Wild in the corner
In his corner for the fight, former UFC was lightweight champion Charles Oliveira, who was sent into expired after the 27-year-old who came from behind victory.
This marked Oliveira's and Topuria's first collision, which ended poorly for 'Do Bronx', which was evil evil by Topuria in the UFC 317 Main Event.
