Cockfighting, locally termed sabong, is a popular pastime in the Philippines, where both illegal and legal cockfights occur.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Legal cockfights are held in cockpits every week, whilst illegal ones, called tupada or tigbakay, are held in secluded cockpits where authorities cannot raid them. In both types, knives or gaffs are used.

There are two kinds of knives used in Philippine cockfighting: single-edged blades (used in derbies) and double-edged blades; lengths of knives also vary.

All knives are attached on the left leg of the bird, but depending on agreement between owners, blades can be attached on the right or even on both legs.
