UFC 293: Adesanya vs. Strickland is an upcoming mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that will take place on September 10, 2023, at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.[1]

Background

The event will mark the promotion's sixth visit to Sydney and first since UFC Fight Night: Werdum vs. Tybura in November 2017.[1]

A UFC Middleweight Championship bout between current two-time champion Israel Adesanya and Sean Strickland is expected to headline the event.[2] Former title challenger Jared Cannonier is expected to serve as backup and potential replacement for this fight.[3]

A women's flyweight bout between Casey O'Neill and Viviane Araújo was expected to take place at this event.[4] However, O'Neill pulled out due to injury and was replaced by Jennifer Maia, with the new matchup being pushed back to UFC Fight Night 227.[5]

A flyweight bout between former interim UFC Flyweight Championship challenger Kai Kara-France and former Rizin Bantamweight Champion Manel Kape was expected to take place at the event.[6] However, Kara-France withdrew after sustaining a concussion in training.[7] He was replaced by promotional newcomer Felipe dos Santos.[8]

A lightweight bout between Nasrat Haqparast and Sam Patterson was expected to take place the week prior at UFC Fight Night 226.[9] However, Patterson pulled out due to health issues.[10] A replacement was found in promotional newcomer, Landon Quinones, who had previously competed on Season 31 of The Ultimate Fighter earlier in the year, and the pairing was moved to this event.[11]
