Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Pitbulls are instinctively dominant, you cant have males together, they will inevitably fight if they weren't raised together from puppies. Once one achieves dominance the others wont fight anymore. The scary thing is when they fight its vicious, they lock their jaws, and you need to jam a stick in their jaw to make them let go. I saw this first hand when my friends pit attacked his other dog. This dog could bite on to something like a towel and you could swing him around and he wouldnt let go....they are strong fuckers. Its weird tho because my other friend has a pitbull that is like a lap dog, he wouldnt hurt a fly.

That's somewhat true but not entirely accurate. Different breeds of American pitbulls are no different than any other dogs, in that if they are domesticated, they will never assert their aggression on any other animal or person without reason. Nearly any dog can be trained to fight, pitbulls just so happen to be among the most ferocious and powerful. Most dogs are naturally territorial, but most pitbulls who fight are not born to fight, they were bred to fight.

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Not that I'm backing RJJ in what he's said one bit, but if he says he's letting his own dogs fight each other, it's not quite the same as breeding them so they can be put in a pen and watched by 2-300 people with those people betting on the first dog to die.
It's still a serious issue, and I realise why the animal health people are horrified by it, but he's treading a thin line by speaking like this.

I agree. Most animals will build their own Hierarchy. In a group one will go for dominance over the others. If that is all Roy is doing, then fine. It is no different than what happens in Zoo's with other animals confined to the same space. If he is indeed breeding them for fights and betting, well then he will get his.
I personally don't think he would come out and say what he did if he knew what he was doing was illegal. He knows what Vick has faced and he also must know his situation is different.

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Pitbulls or any other dog do not lock their jaw, the only animal that can lock its jaw is the badger
Jones can say what he wants, hes long since been relevant in any sense

I disagree with one thing here. Roy Jones ain't exactly Albert Einstein. The idiot basically just incriminated himself. A person with more than a modest IQ would not come out and say something they did that was illegal, however no one's ever accused Roy Jones of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
He has admitted to cockfighting in the past as well so dog fighting does not surpise me

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Each to their own I guess a dog likes a good scrap as well as a human, maybe if they brought in some rules and properly regulated it it could become a good spectator sport.

He might not be smart but he is way smarter than Titto ,he has to be the dumbest ever for fighting Roy. The way I see it Titto has two ways out of this ,looking at the lights or the canvas.

Tito is smart enough to know that he has no shot at resurrecting his career after this long so why not fight one more fight that's gonna be a PPV (meaning he's gonna come right back making huge $$$ in his first fight rather than climbing back up the ladder fighting nobodies that would probably beat him anyways) where he could lose his ass and its not gonna matter because he was fighting RJJ waaay outside of his normal fighting weight.
All this fight tells me is that Tito is broke.

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Pitbulls are not to blame, irresponsible people are.
I love pits and I can't stand the legislation being pass to banned them. THE media exaggerate the breed too, anything that looks anywhere close to a pitbull are titled pitbulls but most of them are half breds. Natural pitbulls are half bulldog and half terriors. to mix it with a Lab overwhelms the dogs excitement and results into aggression. Idiot owners breeding pits to mutts are getting aggressive/excited dogs. The pitbull was americans patriot dog back in world war 1. Its irresponsible people that made the pitbulls reputation bad!!!!!! I can't stand these idiots, from the media that blames them for everything to politicians that want to banned them even though they don't know shyt about them and to the bastards that mix breed them irresponsibly in their backyards.
Punish the DEED,NOT the BREED!!!!!!!!

:appl: Exactly...they are dogs....of course they will fight each other because it is instinct but to a limit...also any dog including pit bulls will usually only get agressive when they feel threatened or they feel their master is threatened...other then that it is instilled in them....
The only dog scientifically proven to have a natural mean streak in them as time goes on..(and not all of them but it is a common occurence) are Dobermans...It has been proven that due to the shape of their heads pressure builds up from the brain pushing against the skull...depending on which part of the brain is pushing against the skull will determine if the dog becomes agressive without cause

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
"I just let my dogs get down five, 10 minutes, 15 minutes. Maybe like the longest I let them go was a half-hour, but I never let them fight to the death 'cause I can't take that."
That right there tells me that he doesnt give a sh@t about the dogs, just the hassle of digging a hole in the back yard to throw his dead dogs in. I know dogs like to bury bones, but I dont think they have their dog friends in mind :-\

lol, since I don't know the whole story I won't pass judgement on Roy yet, but one thing in that quote that's disturbing is that he sometimes let them fight A HALF HOUR!!!! Think about that for a second. Just sit back from your computer and let 2 minutes go by without doing anything else, imagine how long that would seem to have two pit bulls fighting, and now think of the damage two dogs would do to each other in 30 minutes! That's insane.

frozen, sometimes your posts lead people to belive your not a smart person when I know otherwise.
Growing up we had 2 chow-chows they used to fight often and we would let them fight. Once my dad got bit in the had for trying to break them up.
Vick breed and ran a circle of dog fighting, he had an established money making business where dogs died and were tortured.
The damn! club had a freakin' name.
See the difference?

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Roy Jones Jr. has obviously done some stupid shit in his life....fighting chickens and dogs, it's not something to be proud of.
I am no PeTA supporter but I am 100% fighting animals.....even bullfighting isn't very good, although at least the bulls get a shot at the matadors, can't say the same for the dogs or the chickens.

Guess A Miniture Yorkie has it real bad?Ever seen a Collies cranium up close.Itty bitty.
Any one that reeps rewards or enjoyment from seeing dogs tearing one another up should be brutally neuterd .There are bloodlines "designed" for aggression and F!!!!rs cross breed them for the desired effects.. Anyone else paying Jones 50 bucks to watch his circus fight.Maybe we could tie Twenties to the front paws of his Dogs and set them loose in a room together......with RJ this time.
I saw a "Dorkie" the other day :o No joke.Part Dautson,part Yorkshire terrier.WTF :o.People paying up to 3-4 large for Designer dogs!!! enough to make ya loose your lunch. . Sham(e) . The crazy stuff WE do to pets

So it's inappropriate to talk about a boxer on a boxing forum ??? If this forum were up in 1992, would this forum have zero threads about Tyson-Desiree Washington?

Just for the record, pitbulls jaws have no locking mechanism. They are structured the same way any other dogs jaws are. They are just like you said, incredibly strong.

I did some research on this a while ago and found out the reason pitbulls can be tempermental is cause their brain grows at a faster rate the their skull and they have a lot off pressure built up in their heads that can result in headaches which is why they sometimes snap. Thats why they usually snap when their being provoked in some way.

Not to piss on your parade, but even the bulls don't get a fair shot at the matador. Like Russell Crowe in the Gladiator, the vast percentage of bulls actually get cut somewhere inconspicuous a few hours beforehand, and/or are drugged.

Nah man you're crazy. Imagine taking the kids for a nice family day out at the bull fights and you end watching a man get gored to death :o
It would be blatently irresponsible on the part of the organisers to allow the possibility of such a thing to happen before young innocent eyes.
Wound or tranqualise the bull beforehand and the matador can still make an entertaining show in slaying the creature but with a far reduced chance of being killed and ruining the show for everybody.

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Theres good info on wikipedia on pitbulls , I read up and its definately the owners that make the dogs mean. Its a shame that people would treat a dog that way, especially mutilating a dogs tail or ears for looks... Now that I think back my one friend that had the mean pit , its ears were cut so they stand up and its tail was chopped. My friend that had the lap dog pit, his dog had uncut ears and tail.

I've got to tread fairly careful, as my brother's wife is Spanish, but when it comes to bullfighting they're a bunch of barbarians. If I went to the bull fights it seems there's little point if there's no danger. And what's more entertaining than a pompous man dressed in ridiculous clothes get put on a skewer?

Re: Roy Jones Admits to Dogfighting
Well, he's an idiot for incriminating himself, but there is a huge difference in what he is claiming to have done and what Vick was doing. By just saying "I let my dogs fight", we can't be sure to EXACTLY what degree of "fighting" he means.
I mean a week ago I watched my cat fight another cat. I found it amusing. Obviously though, if one was about to kill the other I would have jumped in. And its totally different than taking two cats, throwing them in a pit, letting them fight to the death and taking bets on it.
But either way, Jones is a moron for incriminating himself like that.

The point I'm making is that Vick is getting slammed with the maximum penalty because of who he is where-as if it were just some street thug in Virginia, he would probably just get put on probhation.
