Back to fight down under for the first time since 2019, UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya will pack Quodos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia, when he defends his crown against hungry challenger Sean Strickland in the main event of UFC 293.
After regaining his title with a satisfying knockout of Alex Pereira in April, New Zealand’s Adesanya now sets his sights on Strickland, who has won eight of his last ten bouts on the way to the biggest fight of his career.
Plus, the pride of Western Australia returns, as heavyweight knockout artist Tai Tuivasa collides with Alexander Volkov.
Main card action kicks off on Saturday at 10pm ET / 7pm PT.
