Dana White teases huge change to octagon for UFC 300 that's only been done once before
Dana White has teased a special change to the famed Octagon for UFC 300.
The blockbuster UFC 300 is under a month away as the monster Las Vegas card is officially set.
A huge bantamweight clash between Deiveson Figueiredo vs. Cody Garbrandt will open the show.
Jim Miller, who has made 'millions' through his appearances at UFC 100 and UFC 200, will also be on the early prelims.

In the prelims, Kayla Harrison makes her UFC debut against former champion Holly Holm while Jiri Prochazka meets Aleksandar Rakic.
Three title fights are set for the main-card, with Alex Pereira defending his UFC light-heavyweight title against Jamahal Hill and Justin Gaethje puts his BMF title on the line against Max Holloway, while women's strawweight champion Zhang Weili defends her belt against fellow Chinese fighter Yan Xiaonan.
The combatants in action at UFC 300 are set to compete on a special canvas that has only happened once before at UFC 200.
Speaking after UFC 298, White said that there will be a special canvas for UFC 300.
At UFC 200, the Octagon canvas was changed from its usual grey colour to an eye-catching gold.
It appears something similar is in the works for next month's UFC 300.
During the broadcast of last weekend's UFC 299, the MMA leaders dropped their first video trailer for the stacked event.
In the video, White says: "Ever since the beginning, UFC has been all about putting on the biggest events.
"When we put together these major fight cards, the whole world is watching. "These are the moments fight fans remember for the rest of their lives."
The UFC CEO added: "UFC 300 is gonna be one of those events that people are never gonna forget.
"With the fighters that we have on this card, this has the potential to be the greatest night of fights in the history of combat sports. The greatest night of fights ever assembled."
