Vale-tudo (anything goes) Similarly to MMA competitions and now used to describe the rules of the bout. A style of fighting in itself. The term vale tudo comes from the name of a television show that aired in Brazil. The show was a telecast of style-versus-style fights hosted by Hélio Gracie, which later changed into a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, bjj, tournament followed by the winner taking on an ivited fighter of some other style in a vale tudo match.
Can be used to explain gear and equipment in MMA.
