Yes it is. This "sport" is comparable to coc fighting and dog fights. However, it is humans who are pitted against a specially bred bull. The main difference being the way it reacts when threatened. The savage Iberian bull will continually attack whatever or whoever moves in front of him. The bullfight hinges on this characteristic, one that the Spanish stock raisers constantly try to improve. For four years the bulls are pampered until that fateful moment when they find themselves rudely propelled into the arena. Before entering the arena, the bull has never seen a matador or a cape—if he had, he would remember the techniques and he would be too dangerous. But he instinctively charges that moving cloth, be it red or any other color (bulls are color-blind). In about 20 minutes, it is all over; a lifeless, thousand-pound carcass is dragged out of the ring. Those 20 minutes are pure torture.The apostle Paul explained that the fundamental principle of showing kindness to animals was still valid for Christians. He quoted the Mosaic Law, which specifically required the Israelite farmer to treat his bull with consideration. (1 Corinthians 9:9, 10) The bullfight can hardly be described as a humane way of treating the bull. Although animals are used for food, this is no reason to torment and torture them. Jehovah does not love violence or violent ones, and neither should Christians today. (Psalm 11:5)

Proverbs 12:10 The righteous one is caring for the soul of his domestic animal, but the mercies of the wicked ones are cruel.
Bull fighting is cruel and sadistic !!!!

Yes- it just doesn't make sense to do that to the animals for sport.
