Sabong is more than a sport in the Philippines — it is a tradition passed down through generations, a Sunday ritual, a reason to gather. 708 Pub brings the full sabong experience to your phone: live HD streams from accredited arenas, real-time Meron and Wala betting, and instant GCash payouts the moment a fight is decided. Laro na, Kabayan — your sabong talpakan is always open.
Ask any Filipino who grew up in the provinces and they will have a sabong story. Maybe it was their lolo bringing them to the local cockpit on a Sunday morning. Maybe it was the noise of the crowd, the smell of sawdust, the electric atmosphere when two well-bred roosters entered the pit. Sabong is woven into Philippine culture in a way that is hard to explain to someone who did not grow up with it — it is sport, ritual, and social event all at once.
Online Sabong, also known as e-Sabong, brings that entire experience to wherever you are. At 708 Pub, we partner with licensed, accredited cockpit arenas across the Philippines that stream their fights in HD to our platform. You watch the weighing-in, the pairing, the release — everything unfolds live. You place your Meron or Wala bet before the fight starts, the fight runs its course, and your winnings land in your wallet the moment the referee declares the result.
The 708 Pub Sabong section is live every day of the week. Different partner arenas have different schedules — some run morning derbies, others focus on evening fights. During peak seasons like fiesta months and regional derby championships, the action runs almost continuously. We show the schedule clearly so you can plan around the fights you care most about.
For those who are new to the concept, online sabong works very simply: you deposit via GCash or Maya, navigate to the Sabong section on 708 Pub, select an active fight, choose Meron (the favourite) or Wala (the underdog), enter your stake amount, and confirm. That is it. The stream plays on the same screen. When the fight ends, your result is settled automatically — no manual claiming, no waiting in queues.

Online Sabong betting on 708 Pub revolves around three positions. Here is what each one means and how payouts work.
Meron is the favourite in each fight — usually the rooster with more wins, better bloodline, or heavier weight. In traditional sabong, the Meron bets are placed on the left side of the arena. Payouts on Meron wins are slightly lower than Wala because the odds are closer to even money. On 708 Pub, exact Meron odds for each fight are displayed before betting opens.
The FavouriteWala is the underdog — the rooster that the crowd or the handlers rate slightly lower coming in. Wala bets are placed on the right side in physical arenas. Because Wala wins are considered less likely, the potential payout on a Wala bet is higher than on Meron. This is where value hunters look if they believe the underdog has an edge. 708 Pub shows Wala odds clearly before each fight.
The UnderdogA Draw (also called Empate) is declared when neither rooster wins within the allotted time, or when both roosters go down at roughly the same time and the referee cannot determine a clear winner. Draw bets pay at much higher odds because they are rare — but when they happen, the payout is significant. At 708 Pub, the Draw option is available on select matches with its odds shown pre-fight.
High Payout EventUnlike fixed-odds sports betting, Sabong odds are set by the arena and reflect the betting pool at the time your bet is placed. 708 Pub displays the current odds for each fight in real time as the pre-fight betting window is open.

Sabong has been documented in the Philippines as far back as the pre-colonial era, centuries before the Spanish arrived. Laguna Copperplate inscriptions and early writings by Spanish colonisers both make reference to cockfighting as an established Filipino practice. Antonio Pigafetta, who travelled with Magellan's expedition in 1521, recorded witnessing cockfights among the native population — which puts the tradition at over 500 years of continuous practice in this country.
During the Spanish colonial period, cockfighting was actually regulated and taxed by the government as a source of public revenue. The first licensed cockpits (galleras) were established under Spanish rule, and the sport quickly became institutionalised. This long history of regulated, community-centred sabong is why it holds such a different social meaning in the Philippines compared to anywhere else in the world.
In modern times, Sabong is a full industry. The Philippines is home to some of the world's most prestigious cockfighting events — from local fiesta derbies in every barangay to international world slashers cups that attract top-line roosters and trainers from across Asia. For millions of Filipino families, it is Sunday tradition, family bonding, and neighbourhood community event all in one. 708 Pub is proud to be part of bringing that tradition online, where the fun and excitement can reach Filipinos wherever they are — whether in Metro Manila, the provinces, or working abroad.
