Sorry but i personally do not see cockfighting as a game many people want to bet on as you have said, why do I think this?
First is that, there is no statistics anywhere showing that a lot of people are interested in betting on cockfighting, at least, none I know of, so in case you have such data on your disposal, please feel free to share it with us.

Secondly, take for instance that cockfighting becomes legal in every part of the world, that is, both international and local gambling casinos take cockfighting up and open betting on the game to every gambler out there in the world, trust me when i tell you that betting on this game can only thrive for a very little time, let's say a year to two, and gamblers will start losing interest, why, because the life span of cocks are very little, and this will not allow gamblers to make a proper analysis of which cock stand a better chance of winning the fight before betting, this simply means that, majority of the time a gambler is betting on this fight, it will always be the gambler just guessing, no concrete assurance that he or she is sure of what he or she is betting on.

This can make gamblers lose interest in the shortest period of time, this is why i do not that a lot of people are willing to bet on cockfighing as you said.

For statistics, perhaps I don't have the data in the field. But maybe you can visit the sites below:

Maybe there are many more in other countries that I don't know about.

In some countries, cockfighting is legal and can be found in my sources. It may not exist in international gambling casinos because cockfighting is only popular in certain countries. So you won't find it in other countries, and you might even find that some countries prohibit cockfighting.

I'm sorry if I'm wrong.

Since cock fighting is an unpopular games, the players who also participate will be unpopular and only connect to each other through special means of communications, this is very important and straight for anyone to see and understand properly, although i have not seen such games in real live before and cockfighting sound unpopular to me at this point since this game is seen as illegal in my jurisdictions.

So for that, a few time i have to just read about it online and also watch some videos about cockfights, but even at that, the game is highly unpopular and its research results are not easy to come by at some point so this makes it hard for us to properly understand what the risk for this game is and how to handle them and what are their revenue generation or threat to an animals life.

Cockfighting is not broadcast live because it may not be allowed by the local government, even though cockfighting exists in some places. Well, we might think that cockfighting is not popular in many places, but for Asian countries, cockfighting is one of their favorite gambling games.

The risk of cockfighting is that the fighting cock could die or be disabled. And that will be detrimental to the owner. I don't know what the owners will do once they discover the fighting cock is disabled. Maybe they'll slaughter him or something.
