Our Fabulous Chickens
FLAPPER JACK
Weight 2.2 kg. Fighting style reminiscent of Ali’s 'Rope a Dope'. Jack flops and flips like a Mississippi griddle cake to distract opponents. A fan favorite due for retirement. Bloodied 16 times over his long career.
YOUR-BEST-BET
Weight 2.4kg. Competent journeyman cock, reliable but unspectacular performer, Best Bet is an excellent sparring rooster that knows how to take a stroke. Bloodied 43 times.
HEN HOUNDER
Weight 2.5 kg. An avid consumer of poultrography, this cockadoodle dandy stays in shape by dry humping arena stanchions. In the ring opponents find his backward fighting style disarmingly sexy. Bloodied monthly.
SLASH-FOR-CASH
Weight 2.7 kg. One never knows how Slash is going to fight. A charismatic ring rooster with an evil disposition and a penchant for kidney slashing. When not under suspension, Slash can pay off handsomely.
COCK 'N BALLS
Weight 2.5 kg. Famous for his comical post-match interviews, this cow pen brawler hales from the Punjab. Known as Chicken Korma to fans, Cock was runner-up in the national mixed doubles championship three years in a row. Commercially bred 64x before turning pro, he's the iconic Bollywood chicks-boy.
ADOLF
Weight 2.5 kg. Flatulent and suffering from Parkinson’s this nationally despised fowl is hands down champion of KFC braggadocio. Not a chicken to be taken lightly, Adolf’s maniacal battle cry is the sinister precursor to his egg crushing blitz kreigs. Unbloodied.
Weight 2.5 kg. This Thai Shamo was hatched in Okinawa in 2021 and arrived in Philippines via the Duterte administration's Sushi for Adobo cultural exchange program. Bringing a new meaning to the word 'aggression', his devil-may-care attitude makes him a stylish bet. Bloodied 1 time.
COCK STRIKER
BEASTIE BOY
Weight 2.5 kg. This veteran bad boy has been fighting for over 6 months. Beastie reverts to a ’Tuck and Grab’ style under pressure. Bloodied two times.
BLACK CHIGGER
Weight 3.8 kg. A lanky darling with the ladies. Black’s sleek metallic plumage, rock-a-billy footwork and patented 'beak dunk' set female fans melting. Bloodied 7 times.
FINANCIER
Weight 2.5 kg. Always a longshot due to an abbreviated wingspan, club handicapping can turn a small bet on this polio surviver into a big payday. Fine is popular with 'cover-your-ass' gamblers as a pocket wager. Bloodied 4x.
HACKER
Weight 2.6 kg. An up-and-coming youngster from Siquijor with a beak like a battle axe. A seasoned trainer should make him a contender. Unbloodied and ambitious, excellent training credentials.
SPREAD 'EM
Weight any. Looking for a bird with a great wingspan (1.75m), flashy plumage, full wattles and drooping comb. Non union applicants will receive priority (Sorry, No Phil Health)..
01
King of the Feather Wars
An inadvertent flying foreskin and a near crucifixion in a mango tree launch two country-singing teens, Beau and Annie, on an island-hopping romp across the Philippines.
Hard times set them to scamming cockfights with a lovable overweight rooster while Annie’s jacked, tricycle-racing boyfriend and his "Midnight Rocket" keep them one step ahead of the police and their homophobic stepfather.
But their luck runs out when Beau risks all at the Slasher Derby Championships. Shot on location in full sunlight, this is not a film for whiners, weepers, or weak-bladdered candy suckers.
