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.
