Cage size?

Curious to know what the cage dimensions are in the UFC. Anyone able to help out.
Asking because Strikeforce's cage looked alot smaller for some reason.

The cage is an octagonal structure with walls of metal chain-link fence coated with black vinyl and a diameter of 32 ft (9.8 m), allowing 30 ft (9.1 m) of space from point to point. The fence is 5'6" to 5'8" high. The cage sits atop a platform, raising it 4 ft (1.2 m) from the ground. It has foam padding around the top of the fence and between each of the eight sections. It also has two entry-exit gates opposite each other.[59] The mat, painted with sponsorship logos and art, is replaced for each event.

Just to let you know the UFC cage is bigger than all the other orgs cage, theres the data on size and the link about the UFC might go to a smaller cage

I hope they don't go to a smaller cage. That limits certain styles alot.
