The world's premier MMA promotion will return to pay-per-view on Saturday, September 9 (US time) with UFC 293: Adesanya vs. Strickland. The event will take place at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia.

Headlining the card will be a middleweight title showdown between reigning 185-pound champion Israel Adesanya and the No.5-ranked Sean Strickland.

Israel Adesanya will look to make his first title defense since recapturing the belt with a stunning second-round knockout of Alex Pereira earlier this year. Sean Strickland, meanwhile, scored a TKO win over Abusupiyan Magomedov last time out in July and is getting his first crack at the title.

In the co-main event, No.6-ranked heavyweight Tai Tuivasa will square off against the No.7-ranked Alexander Volkov.

The main card will also feature another clash of heavyweights as Justin Tafa takes on Austen Lane. Also on the card, Manel Kape will meet Felipe dos Santos in a flyweight clash. Tyson Pedro goes up against Anton Turkalj in a light heavyweight battle in the potential main card opener.
