That aint much of a fighting cock dude. He's still got his spurs. In addition to trimming them they have to take the spurs off to make room for the blades.

Posted by: flunka on August 3, 2004 04:08 PMHaven't you folks ever seen a cock fight? Terrible yucky sport, but yeah, they take off the natural spurs, and replace them with long sharp blades so they can kill each other propper like. Terrible sport.

Also, think about how cool it would be if the principles of cockfighting were applied to other barnyard animals. Like babies! replacing babyfingers with metal spikes and making them fight! OR pigs! I havent worked out the logistics on this last one, but you just know it would rule. Animal rights? psht.
