El Luchador[1] is the third boss of Rayman Legends, and the boss of the Fiesta de los Muertos. He is fought in the level Wrestling with a Giant!.
Appearance
He is a giant, gray version of the Luchadores. He has several accessories on him, such as a belt with a large "K" emblazoned on it, a ring on his finger that also has a "K" on it, and a tattoo on his left arm that spells out "King". He appears to be a champion of his arena, though not an undefeated one; Rayman and friends defeated him during the events of Rayman Legends, not unlike Reflux the Knaaren from Rayman 3. He also appears to be a popular figure in the Fiesta de los Muertos world, since the cans of lava-like salsa and large platforms seen in his boss fight are decorated with his head.

Trivia
- An early concept art shows that El Luchador was originally known as "El Chili."
- El Luchador is the only boss in Rayman Legends (excluding the Back to Origins bosses) that does not require the Flying Punches to defeat.
- L'Histoire de Rayman reveals that the sounds of the Mariachis' encouragement in El Luchador's fight and the crowd cheering heard in his boss theme - which are likely done by the crowd of Mariachis in-universe - were done by members of the Rayman Legends development team.[2]
- El Luchador was considered for inclusion as a final boss in Rayman: The Board Game, but he lost the popular vote to Grunderbite during the Kickstarter campaign.
- Despite this, FLYOS has hinted that he may return to the game at some point in the future.[3]
