Interesting. If anything I would want this to not fail and to actually work. I haven't seen any MMA presentations I wouldn't watch and that includes Vale Tudo, in which there is no broadcaster and is bare knuckles and few rules. If they promote it right and have the networks they can be huge. They would get the bigger networks faster because, well they have contracts with them. I'd like to see UFC be given a run for their money. PrideFC as well since they are branching over to the US.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vale-tudo (Portuguese for anything goes) describes competitions in unarmed combat having minimal rules,[1] especially up until the modern day mixed martial arts competitions. It is sometimes also considered a combat sport[2] and style of fighting[3] in itself. The term vale tudo comes from the name of a television show that aired in Brazil starting in the 1960s. The show was a telecast of style-versus-style fights hosted by Hélio Gracie, which later changed into a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament followed by the victor fighting an invited opponent of another style in a vale tudo bout
