Throughout the work, I try to explain the significant cultural manifestations of cockfighting, associating their socio-historical contexts, analyzing the production of multiple forms of social memory and their interrelationships with the social time, the profiles, the relation between the group s members and among them, others from their relationship network. The research attempts to dialogue with the field of anthropology of emotions , seeking to observe the feelings movement expression through symbols, common signs or their own language, how learning takes place on working with feelings such as: loss, grief and sadness around and engrossing game that unleashes a flood of emotions both positive and negative. The methodology utilized was an ethnographic research with open interviews and participant observation.
