The tremendously talented and promising Cristóbal, aged 10, has been training for 2 years. He is known as ‘El Maletilla’, meaning a bullfighter with great potential. Cristobal fights the 150kg bull called "Mañito" or little brother. The bull gored him during his fight, and when asked about how he felt about it he said “it’s an occupational hazard.” He goes on to say; “To fight a bull is something beautiful, there are a lot of emotions… adrenaline, excitement and the danger is always there. As a torero you are always afraid but this is normal, it makes you stronger and helps you to take control of your fear… from that point you move ahead.”
