@xyzashu, I think you got it wrong. Comparing jallikattu with Spain bull fighting is wrong and what's even more wrong is thinking that it's indian version of that cruel sports.
Don't get me wrong but even I used to think like that but later after speaking to the native folks they told me the history behind it and it's has a very different story.
While in the Spain the bull fighting is for the sport where the bull is killed. Here it's a celebration of harvest and the Ox is awarded and offered prayers.
I do agree that this sport is very much dangerous and the threat to life is there but the reason they do it is completely different.
I think @bala41288 would agree.
Yes @inuke you are absolutely right.

Well, whichever way you look at it, it can't be denied that both the events are primarily held for entertainment purpose and both are based on cruelty to innocent bulls.
One thing I learned from culture, tradition and religion is that these are full of various anecdotes, mythologies & stories and can be (mis)interpreted to even justify crimes as heinous as murder. I'm least interested in the history if it's used to justify what we see today!
