Is mma popular in Brazil?
some guy asked:
Just wondering, since most of the best fighters are from Brazil. Is mma big there? And how well are the the fighters known like Anderson Silva, Wanderlei Silva, And Shogun Rua? Thank you.
Also I heard Thiago Silva had to hire a body guard for his wife because he was so popular, is that true?

The boys know and they like fight (Vale-tudo) in Brazil the followers of those sport type are known as PITIBOYS. They are not very well seen by the society. The boys rich go to the academies of Jujitsu and the poor boys for the circles of capoeiras. The fights are not transmitted in TV for they be classified as violent sport. Just the results of the confrontations are announced in some news, for the internet in Orkut they are deified.
Enter in the page of Orkut and type MMA, Luta Livre, Vale tudo. and you can see the great amount of communities that exist in Brazil only dedicated the wrestling Luta Livre.
