Francisco Romero from Ronda, Spain first conducted the bullfighting in 1726. Is a subject lots of controversy over its almost 300 year history and it continues to this day. Many people believed that it is a time honored tradition and a cornerstone of Spanish Culture. Others say that it is a cruel and callous sport to be despise despite its cultural heritage. It has been banned by the Pope and praised by the King , until now there is no clear view how to interpret the bullfighting tradition. It is really clear, it always a brutal sports.
