There is no fixed answer as statistics change on an almost daily basis. Statistics include the number of fights year-to-date, number of ears and tails cut, any warnings (avisos) received, etc. Juan Jose Padilla was one of the leading matadores last year (2011) but received a serious goring through the head in the final weeks of the season. I have not heard if he has recovered and returned to the ring. Another top matador, José Tomás, lost part of his popularity when he was axed due to a money dispute. He was also seriously gored in Mexico last year and has been unable to perform up to his previous standards because of muscle and nerve damage in his left thigh.
