Nene Abello is one of the most popular fighting chicken breeders in the Philippines. His name is well-known in the cockfighting community, particularly for his impressive Sweater bloodlines. The Sweater strain was originally developed by the American breeder Sweater McGuiness, who was a contemporary of other notable figures in the industry, such as Harold Brown, Duke Hulsey, and Ray Hoskins.
According to the site of Nene Abello, he acquired his bloodlines from Harold Brown and Carol NeSmith during late 80’s. During that time the two legends were partners and denominating the major derbies around the United States. But when their partnership was ended, Nene already acquired bloodlines from them which are Sweater families. He thought that those chickens could compete and more suitable in the Philippines. And he was right in his perception. The Sweaters came from Carol NeSmith while he acquired Green Legged side from Harold Brown. Aside from that, Nene also was a friend of Ray Alexander who had Roundhead chickens. Then, he crossed it with the Sweaters that he acquired and the result was very impressive and spectacular. After that, he realized that he need to make another signature bloodline because as day goes by the competition become harder and harder. He needs to survive to maintain his reputation as a breeder.
