UFC 293 Predictions: Bleacher Report Main Card Staff Picks
UFC 293, which will mark the promotion's latest stop in Australia, is just a few days away. That means it's time for another round of predictions from the B/R combat sports team.
Headlining honors for the event in Sydney will go to a middleweight title fight, with champion Israel Adesanya from New Zealand taking on Sean Strickland, who will enter the fight as a huge underdog.
The card is quite bare after that, but could turn out to be a fun one all the same.
The co-main event is particularly alluring, with Australian knockout artist Tai Tuivasa looking to correct a losing streak against the always-dangerous Alexander Volkov at heavyweight.
