Coming from a family of cattlemen, he began to participate in diverse capeas in La Mancha until in 1965, when he appeared in the part of a comic-taurino-musical spectacle.
On 19 March of that year he appeared in the La Monumental de Barcelona cutting four ears and a tail, which served to be announced another seven evenings in the same city.
On 1 June he debuted in Las Ventas of Madrid leaving a pleasing impression, in spite of its failures at the time of killing.
He received the alternative in Alicante (Spain) on 24 June 1969 with Miguel Mateo Salcedo, "Miguelín" as godfather and Paquirri as witness.
The 25 May 1979 achieved in Las Ventas of Madrid one of the most important successes of its race when cutting the two ears to a bull of the cattle ranch of La Laguna, so he went out by the big door.
He finally bowed out from the Plaza de Albacete on 16 September while sharing the billing with Espartaco and José Mari Manzanares, cutting an ear from his last bull;[2] a day later made his last paseíllo in Murcia.
