Horse Fighting

In previous posts I already wrote about spider fighting and cock fighting. For those who thought they'd seen it all, well... not really. The clip below was shot during a horse fight in barangay Managa. Horse fighting is a popular sport in Bagobo culture and no tribal day is complete without it. This is how it works. Two stallions are encircled by a crowd of people. Then, a mare is brought in to tempt both males until they fight each other over the 'love' of the mare. The fight ends when one of the horses flees. I guess a lot can be said about this custom, but I'll leave it up to you to comment...
