Another Online Gambling Venture Delves into Mixed Martial Arts Arena

BetCRIS.com, known for being the first sports betting operation to set up in the Caribbean for North American clients, has just announced a joint partnership with RioHeroes.com, an extreme fighting league straight out of Brazil. 

BetCRIS.com continues to expand its brand and solidify itself as the destination for sports aficionados and gamblers alike.

RioHeroes.com is a no holds barred, extreme fighting league unlike any other. Through the years, American involvement and corporate regulations have created rounds, rules, and many other lackluster restrictions for mixed martial arts. Do not expect to see this or any Hollywood-type fights on this website. RioHeroes.com to offers street fighting in its purest form, including knockouts, blackouts, and broken bones. From the gyms and streets of Brazil, warriors converge to take on each other and try to become the next Rio Hero.

“We’re very excited about this partnership with RioHeroes.com,” stated Jose Daniel Duarte, General Manager of BetCRIS.com. “We hope to bring this new age of fighting to a wider audience via our extensive clientele and the ability to watch the matches online.”

Terms of the agreement give BetCRIS.com exclusive rights to provide betting odds and even live broadcasts of the fights online.
