Spanish sales agent Filmax unveiled its latest pickup Wednesday in Madrid, director Giampaolo Manfreda’s ultimate fighting documentary “Matador,” about Spanish-Georgian world champion Mma fighter Ilia Topuria.
Produced by Señor Mono, with the support of Spanish pay TV giant Movistar+ and Filmax, “Matador” is being presented at a multitudinous press conference in the Spanish capital. “Matador” will hit Spanish theaters via Filmax on Sept. 19. Having acquired international rights, Filmax is offering distributors in other territories the opportunity to release the film in their own markets around that same time.
Nicknamed El Matador, Topuria became the UFC world champion in February in a blockbuster match against Alexander “The Great” Volkanovski, ending a four-year title reign.
“Matador” documents eight months of Topuria’s career, beginning with his fight against Josh Emmett in Florida, which elevated him into the global top five of UFC’s fighter rankings, and culminating with his title match against Volkanovski.
