2010 World Slasher Cup Solo Winner is Reigning Bakbakan Champ Sonny Magtibay
Winning the 2,417-entry Bakbakan 10-Stag National Derby is something unimaginable and capturing the solo championship of the historic 240-entry 2010 World Slasher Cup 8-Cock International Derby is a feat cockers can only dream of, but 33-year old Electrical Engineer Sonny Magtibay did the impossible – he won the two titles within a span of only 50 days. And from being a relative unknown, Magtibay is now the most talked-about, not to mention much-envied, cockfighter in the country.
Magtibay’s entry, RM Red Cobra Farm, scored a perfect record of 8 wins out of 8 matches to conquer the biggest and grandest World Slasher Cup in history.
In the opening salvo, Magtibay’s roosters breezed through the 2-cock eliminations, first lording it over Rhemy Medrano’s Karamba Ilonor entry with a Sweater-Kelso fighter, then winning over Eddie Araneta’s by fielding a Sweater – Yellow-legged Hatch ¾-1/4 cross.
In the 2-cock semis, his entry using a 2-time winner Sweater crosses dominated its opponents’ Lahaina Boys – MCF Game Farm of Kali Casco of Hawaii and Thunderbird – II Hatchet of Nene Araneta and Roger Roberts.
In the 4-cock finals last Thursday, Magtibay unleashed a 2-year old Pure Sweater cock against 3-time Slasher champ Peping Ricafort’s PTK Country Road; a 1-time winner Pure Sweater against Jorge Torres’ Lover Boy; and a Sweater-Lemon cock versus another Peping Ricafort entry, PTK Yucatan.
In his championship fight, Magtibay’s Sweater-Juancho Grey cross needed only 8 seconds to dispose of Ricki Reyes’ Rian Octagon Oliver Colors. The championship-sealer rooster hit his opponent in mid-air on the first buckle.
A proud Thunderbird Bexan XP – user, Magtibay thanked his wife Precy for “her full support” and his three boys Reinhold Harry, Michael Dwayne and Sean Heinrich. Team Red Cobra also icludes Ritchie “Enteng” Buatag - handler; Itoy Dumaraos, gaffer; and Eddie Pontero – pointer who is Boy Tanyag’s farm manager, plus his partners Neil Aguirre and Beng Navarro.
Runners-up with 7 wins are: Tin-Tin of Wilson Agbayani; Alando Mahakam GE of Denny and Nino; Alexander of Frank, Greg, and William Berin; FBJ- 2 of Ferdie Buensalida; and Thunderbird - 4- Stingray of Nene Araneta.

Plaza; Rian Colors Octagon BM of Ricki Reyes; Sagupaan Complexor 3000 of Patrick A.; JJTRC Cherokee of Jesry Palmares and Bill Mcnatt; Deep Impact B.C.A. of Cito Alberto; TMP Farm of Tady Palma; JMP Muntinlupa of Lito Cay; GPC Pik Pak Boom Babatngon of RC, WO, and GC; V-Tex of VG Lacson; 3 Bagay Farmville; Scorpion of Ohana and Chris James; Octagon Jared Camsur-ORC of Ontong F.; LB Candelaria Apr. 10 Winslet-ORC-2 of DL; EM Summit of Atty. Ed Moreno; and CMC Gamefarm of Cesar Calvo.
Known as the “Olympics of cockfighting,” the World Slasher Cup was first held in 1963. It has eventually evolved into a tourist attraction, with foreign visitors flocking to the matches every year to participate in and witness an intrinsic and colorful facet of Filipino culture, the “sabong.”
