UFC 293: Israel Adesanya vs. Sean Strickland live results tracker [UPDATED]
The UFC returns to The Land Down Under, as UFC 293 goes down at the Qudos Bank Arena in Syndey, Australia.
In the main event, New Zealand's Israel Adesanya will defend the UFC middleweight championship against Sean Strickland.
This will be Adesanya's first defense in his second reign as the UFC's 185-pound champion. Adesanya regained the title earlier this year at UFC 287, where he scored a knockout of Alex Pereira in their fourth encounter — Adesanya's first win over him — in professional combat sports (two kickboxing fights, two MMA fights).
Adesanya previously reigned as middleweight champion from his win over Robert Whittaker at UFC 243 in October 2019 to his loss to Pereira at UFC 281 last November.
Strickland has won two straight and eight of his last 10. He most recently fought in July, scoring a second-round finish of Abusupiyan Magomedov.
This story will be updated live throughout the night.
