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.
