The young Bearnais bullfighter Dorian Canton saves the second bullfight of the Feria de l’Atlantique in Bayonne

We had to wait for the ultimate bull to see and hear the public ignite. Faced with rough, serious, heavy and dangerous cattle from the Pedraza de Yeltes ganaderia, the first five bullfighters broke their teeth. Often failing at the sword on the kill. It was finally the young Béarnais, native of Pau, Dorian Canton who saved the late one. At 21, the child from the small town of Asson, cut two deserved ears. Faced with a frustrated public (half-arenas), the Béarnais was attentive and creative throughout his performance. Impeccable with the final sword, after a great performance with the cape as with the muleta.

Unable to manage the strength and power of the cattle, the other bullfighters leave empty-handed: the Spaniards Morenito de Aranda, Ángel Téllez and Daniel Crespo, the Colombian Sabastian Ritter and the Portuguese Joas Silva “Juanito”.
