The traditional bullfight with which the year is received annually in Yuriria, Guanajuato, during this 2025 ended under a tremendous downpour, despite which, Isaac Fonseca decided to fight the last bull in a bullring that had become a quagmire, with which he cut his second ear of the celebration and left on shoulders.
Absolute dedication marked the development of this bullfighting event by the bullfighters, but it was Isaac Fonseca’s accurate sword that made the numerical difference, since the public was greatly moved by the work of the bullfighters and even the forcados, and although Paola and Gamero let the Puerta Grande slip away, during their bullfights, both heard shouts of “torera! and “torero”, respectively.
Emiliano Gamero opened the bullring and faced a batch of bulls from the El Saucillo ranch, with age and serious character that did not give the desired game, but this rejoneador and his stable put their chest in both bullfights to achieve structured work with spectacular passages in the placement of banderillas that convinced the people, who despite the weather, filled the seats to three quarters of their capacity. Both bulls were sent off at the second trip with the “rejón de muerte”. The Forcados de Querétaro accompanied him in each round of the bullring, as they achieved several bullfights, being impressive the one they did with the fourth bull.
Paola San Roman showed her quality and bravery, as she faced a lot of little game from the Marco Garfias ranch. The second bull of the encierro was allowed to be fought at the beginning, but ended up distracted, in spite of which, the matador gave him tandas with feeling and temperament. She was well above the conditions of the fifth bull, which she handled with solvency and got valuable muletazos on both sides. She was not successful with the sword and her valuable work remained without any prize.
Isaac Fonseca before the third and sixth bulls, performed like a cannon with the sword to sign a varied and quality faena to the first of them, which he received with faroles on his knees and chicuelinas to then link series of very tight passes. He cut the first ear of the bullfight. With the bull that closed the bullfight, he risked his life to fight under a torrential downpour in a very slippery arena. He earned another appendix and the exit through the Puerta Grande.
