I dont think it is, its actually a BJJ thing. I think its more like Kumite/Randori, where they fight with normal cloths on and no holds are barred. I think Vale Tudo is the portuages word for No holds barred.

 

Take Care.

Vale Tudo come from Brazil which means in Portugues for "anything goes", it's a mix of Muay Thai, Boxing and BJJ. Vale Tudo fighters are trained in striking (Muay Thai, Boxing) and submission grappling (BJJ), the style is aggresive, well rounded and effective. Many Vale Tudo practioners go on to fight in MMA events (Pride FC, KOTC, UFC...), Vale Tudo is fought with only wearing small tight shorts, the reason for this is so that when grappling their sweat will help them escaspe submissions also their is nothing for the opponent to grab on to. If your looking to leran how to fight in the ring or streets then Vale Tudo is for you.

Limits Are Not Accepted. They Are Elbowed, Kicked And Punched.

hmmm Just a little thing.

 

Vale Tudo is a contest, not a martial arts style. You go to a vale tudo contest, you fight for money. Vale Tudo have there rules depending on the Organization.

 

NOW, the most popular Vale Tudo competition styles are Muay Thai, Box, Wrestling and BJJ.

 

If you find a place which says that they teach "Vale Tudo" that means its a Gym in which they prepare people to fight in the Ring, for money or some amateur competitions, like in Boxing.
