    Nice... Yet, I seem to find them when not expecting it. I mean, I do see/meet many at fights but I seem to see them about town all the time. I have good eyes

    I met Manny Pacquiao at Calasiao, Pangasinan Cockpit Arena in the Philippines. He had over 50 entries (fighting roosters). It was 3 days and 3 nights event. National Derby what they called.

    I didn't even know he was gonna be there. We just shoke hands and that's pretty much about it.

    I can't believe Missy gave me a bad rep for cockfighting. That kind event already existed before even Ferdinand Magellan set his foot in the Philippines. I know it's an animal abuse, but it's there tradition. It was televised on national television. That's how big the Slasher Cup is.

    I was in that arena because of curiousity. I wasn't there to support breeders or place bets. COCKFIGHTING IS BAD.

    WE have a roster farm too in the phillipines. My bro runs the place, I've been to some Derby there. Its a lot more organize then the local pits i was once taken too. I hate those place, but the Derby is fun. I've seen tons of celebs in those derby.

    Had the opportunity to spend some time with Jeff Harding about a year or 2 ago. Interesting guy, has had a lot of problems since he finished fighting but trying to get things back on track.
