Free Vale Tudo Event Online Today
The bare knuckle, no holds barred format of the early UFC has long gone extinct in the US and has been replaced by a highly regulated mixed martial arts sport. In Brazil, the vale tudo art form is still alive and well. A production called Rio Heroes puts on events where pretty much anything goes and gloves are not allowed. If you grew up enjoying the early, low production value NHB version of the UFC, then this might be your thing. If you’re looking for the glitz and glam of today’s big MMA production, this isn’t it.
However…you can check it all out for free! Rio Heroes 9 will broadcast an entire tournement live tomorrow for free at 7PM/ET on thier website. You might be required to register, we’re not sure yet. Rio Heros 9 will be a bare knuckles tournament with the eventual champion having to fight 3 times in one night.
About Rio Heroes (taken from their website)
Through the years, American involvement and corporate regulations have created rounds, rules, and many other lackluster restrictions. Do not expect to see this or any other Hollywood-type fights on this website. All it has to offer is street fighting in its purest form, including knockouts, blackouts, and broken bones. From the gyms and streets of Brazil, warriors converge to take on each other and try to become the next Rio Hero.
