hes been in a few dog fights and when he is in a fight, he fights to kill. he was tearing this one dog up, he was latched to this dogs neck and thrashing is back and forth. i tried pulling him off but his flexed muscle made him weigh a ton. i had to punch him as hard as i could in his rib to get him off. the puncture wounds were deep and he missed a main artery by a fraction of an inch which would have killed the dog.
is tyson a sweet dog? yes. was he raised properly? yes. in all my years of having dogs, have i ever had a dog that could kill? not until tyson.
most of it is breeding (his bloodline more than breed like a rot or pit) and training but imo some dogs have a natural killer instinct that once they start in a fight, they will not stop until they kill.

When i was a kid growing up in Great Falls, there was a guy a few houses down that had a bull terrier. It was mean as hell. When i was about 10 or 12, it got one of the neighbor kids on the pants leg and it wouldnt let go.
The guy that owned the dog came running out to try and help, and i kid you not he punched it square in the top of the head, which only stunned it a little. we ran inside and closed the door and could hear the dog banging against the door outside. Scared me to death. I can still remember that.
Heck, nowadays they'd throw that guy in jail....
