That championship match of Rio Heroes 8 featuring Pedro Santos Vs Flavio Alvaro in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
This was the third fight of the night for each man. Both men still have a lot left in the tank for the final.

ASS WOOOPIN!
Nice fight except for the commentator, she was annoying. Yay headbutts!
Good fight can of slow but still really cool, Rio Heroes is somthing i would never dream of doing.
Bare knuckles…DAMN!!
bare knuckle sucks.. only thing more extreme about it is that your hand has a bigger chance of breaking.. cant hit as hard or nething… plus that girl was annoying
I would love to fight that announcer chick, she gave me a head ache, good fight, that shit’s gota hurt
Most annoying commentator ever! But a decent fight, even though 3 fights in a day sounds a bit much imo.
buzzin! true fighting…..
This is illegal stuff and it brings mma back, what it was 10-15 years ago…
good fight like the good old times like the first ufc any true champion did this at least ones in their life fucking great
It’s not illegal in Brazil. Rio Heroes is a TV show down there.
I’m not a big fan of bare knuckles… Its too easy to get an open cut, the better fighter can lose his advantage. I can’t believe they couldn’t find a commentator who knew even a little bit about fighting. Come on, “he’s hitting him”?
Annoying commentating! I’m with MEFNINJA and GREG on this one.
bare knuckel fights are of the chain
MMA gloves are only 4 oz.’s, just enough to protect your hand from breaking. The glove makes your whole fist one surface instead of 4 knuckles where energy gets dispersed unevenly. You actually can hit a lot harder with gloves. It looks cooler without them… that’s about it. You can tell the guy wasn’t hitting full force when he was in the other guys guard.
You can’t compare a bare knuckles punch with a gloved one. If you think you’d rather get punched with bare hands than with gloves you’re mistaken. The damage done is vastly superior and it is not limited to cuts. The pressure point of the knuckles increase the chance of facial bone fracture.
Gloves stop serious injuries from happening (both to the puncher and the “victim”)and that is why they are used. This is dangerous but it is also the traditional Vale Tudo way in Brazil.
Love RioHeroes.. Fuck the commentary off though.
Thats the first time I’ve seen Flavio beaten in RH.
There definately is a place for this old school stuff. Sometimes I miss the old days and this fills a good niche.
I like some of the old skool mma techniques here such as the elbows to the spine, modern mma rules need to be adjusted I fucking hate “lay and pray” or those ass jockeys who prance around the fucking ring or octagon to avoid fighting.
that announcer is the worst i ever heard
I am the anouncer of this fight, stop hating!
fuck that announcer. that shit damn near ruined the fight 4 me.
