The Octagon™–Competition mats and specific cage designs, both of which are trademarks of Zuffa.
1993 saw some UFC events come into play that featured an 8 sided configuration of competition that became known the world over as the UFC Octagon. The shape and build of these have become uniquely known as belonging to this particular style of fighting and by one particular company. The UFC Octagon is a regular feature of many events including pay per views, UFC® Fight Night™ and The Ultimate Fighter® reality TV series.
