Boston Pizza will introduce the first-ever eight-sided octagon-shaped pizza to celebrate the upcoming Ultimate Fighting Championship Pay-Per-View event in Calgary, Canada, on July 21 at 22 locations in the city's area.

The Octagon Pizza, said a press release issued by Boston Pizza International Inc. on Wednesday, will make its debut in time for Saturday's fight of UFC 149: Faber vs. Barao.

"At Boston Pizza we share in UFC fans' passion and love for the sport and wanted to demonstrate that by providing fans with an ultimate eating experience that they can't get anywhere else," Steve Silverstone, Executive Vice President of Marketing at Boston Pizza, said in a press release. "The Octagon Pizza from Boston Pizza is a great way for us to offer our guests an enhanced UFC experience before they head to the fight or when watching Pay-Per-View events with friends and family at Boston Pizza."

Octagon Pizzas can only be purchased in a large size at Boston Pizza, noted the press release, but can be customized toppings-wise.

The pizzas can be ordered on July 21 for the Pay-Per-View event for dining in at the Calgary restaurants, said the press release, and will also be available for future UFC Pay-Per-View events. The pizza will be available for future events at Boston Pizza stores across Canada, as well.

"The introduction of Octagon Pizza coupled with the launch of the Tough Enough contest shows just how enthusiastic Boston Pizza is about being the Official Sports Bar of UFC Canada,"UFC® Director of Canadian Operations Tom Wright, stated for the press release. "Boston Pizza is giving fans the next best experience to being at the fight live and we're thrilled to have them as our partner in Canada."
