Bullfighting, "bull-fight" or as "Corrida de toros" is a traditional spectacle of Spain, Portugal, some cities in southern France and in several Latin American countries, in which one or more bulls are ritually killed in a bullring as a public spectacle.
The tradition, as it is practiced today, involves professional toreros, who execute various formal moves in order to subdue the bull itself. Such maneuvers are performed at close range, and have in some cases resulted in injury or death of the bullfighter. The bullfight usually concludes with the killing of the bull by a sword thrust.
Bullfighting generates heated controversy in many areas of the world, including Mexico, Ecuador, Spain, Peru, and Portugal. Supporters of bullfighting argue that it is a culturally important tradition, while animal rights groups argue that it is a blood sport because of the suffering of the bull and horses during the bullfight.
The largest venue of its kind is the Plaza de toros México in central Mexico City which seats 50,000 people, and the oldest is the Plaza de Toros de Acho in Lima, Peru, which was built in 1766.

Bullfight can be considered a blood sport.
