FORT WORTH, Tex. (November 29, 2021) – This December, Fort Worth, Texas, and the iconic Cowtown Coliseum will host yet another enthralling Western sports event, holding the six-day, two-weekend 2021 UBF (Ultimate Bullfighting) World Finals Dec. 2-11, when the 2021 UBF World Champion will be crowned and $100,000 will be awarded to 24 of the world’s best freestyle bullfighters. The high-adrenaline action will take over Fort Worth on Dec. 2-4 and Dec. 9-11.

The UBF was launched in 2020 as a partnership between Luke Kaufman, 2020 UBF Stock Contractor of the Year Chad Ellison and two-time PBR World Champion J.B. Mauney (Statesville, North Carolina), showcasing the acrobatic western discipline of freestyle bullfighting. After awarding $237,000 in prize money in its inaugural season, the UBF will payout more than $350,000 at the conclusion of 2021.

In freestyle bullfighting, a bullfighter competes for 60 seconds against a fighting bull predominantly of Spanish descent in an effort to score points for maneuvers performed during the one-minute competition. Unlike traditional bullfighting, the animals are not harmed. Bullfighters are judged solely on their ability to perform gravity-defying acrobatic stunts as close to the bull as possible without getting hit.

Throughout the six days of action for the 2021 UBF World Finals, produced in partnership with the PBR (Professional Bull Rider24 of the world’s top freestyle bullfighters will compete through a tiered, progressive elimination format until the 2021 UBF World Champion is crowned on Saturday, Dec. 11, earning the accompanying $25,000 bonus.
