Who's-left matchmaking? There's that 1/100 chance Strickland touches him with a jab Adesanya doesn't see coming and the pours it on but I think this fight is happening purely because Adesanya is getting tired of lapping the division and the sheer desperation to put something worth watching on the 293 card.

Get DDP in there. That is literally the match to make and the one that earned his shot.
It doesn't look like he can hold a candle to Adesanya with technique but he appears to just refuse to lose
I don't see a path to victory for Strickland. I think Adesanya beats him up and knocks him out within 3.
Adesanya is way too clean in the standup and good at mixing in the low kicks and his question mark kick.
Sean is going to have to do something other than point fight Adesanya from the outside
