UFC 293 Fight Card

UFC 293 takes place this coming Saturday night, 9th September in Sydney, Australia and we’ve got the full fight card for you below.

In the main event of the evening middleweight champion Israel Adesanya makes his latest title defense against Sean Strickland, who stepped in on four weeks notice to replace Dricus du Plessis.

The co-main event delivers heavyweight action as Tai Tuivasa fights on home soil looking to bounce back from two KO losses in a row when he faces Alexander Volkov, who is coming off two 1st round victories via strikes.

Manel Kape brings a three-fight winning streak into his flyweight fight against newcomer Felipe dos Santos, who comes in as a late replacement for Kai Kara-France.

Back at heavyweight, Justin Tafa and Austen Lane will run back their previous fight in June, which only lasted 29 seconds due to Tafa suffering an accidental eye-poke that left him unable to continue.

Opening up the main card will be Tyson Pedro, who suffered a decision loss in his last fight back in February and now looks to make amends against Anton Trukalj, who has lost his two fights in the UFC so far.
