A few months after regaining his UFC middleweight belt with a heavy KO of Alex Pereira, Israel Adesanya is preparing to return to the cage. The Nigerian fighter will face Sean Strickland at UFC 293 on September 9. According to the American press, all parties have reached an agreement and it only remains to make it official.
A meeting between Israel Adesanya and the South African Du Plessis was originally planned. However, the latter was injured and will therefore be out of action for this appointment. The Nigerian falls back to the American, who has 27 wins and 5 losses to his credit.
