Mastiffs will get down and dirty and scrap it out in true fighting fashion. Not hit and run like pack-hunting. Also, a well trained human is vastly different from your average Joe. I'd take a Muy Thai fighter over nearly any dog. Same with a solid practitioner of Jiujitsu. And probably nearly any other form of martial art if the practitioner is serious and in good physical shape. Then again, a well-trained fighting dog knows to dodge, duck, and move just as a martial artist. A dog with training will not sit there and bite onto a limb and let its eyes get poked out or let someone fall on them. I don't think I've ever seen a veteran fighting dog act that stupid. They will bite and then TUG very very violently. They don't bite and shake. They bite and tug backwards to knock you off balance. And they will let go and bite you again if they must. If someone tries to drop on top of the dog, the dog will simply sidestep, move back, and bite you in the mf-ing torso. A mastiff dog has much greater jaw force and will snap bones or pierce arteries. They will also be much less susceptible to getting their jaws ripped in half. Is it still possible? Yes. But it would take an extraordinarily strong man moving at VERY fast speed to pull this maneuver off. A German Shepard has a narrow muzzle and very unimpressive jaw force. They're designed to SNAP at their prey, to slash with their teeth, and move away. Not to clamp down and hold on. They're just not that type of fighter. Overall though, I put a very well trained human over a very well trained dog. Humans ARE larger and have more angles they can attack from when it comes down to it. Humans are also a lot more intelligent, although in this scenario that doesn't come into play. Not enough variable factors to really "out-think" the opponent. At this close proximity and with this vanilla an environment, it's pretty much all instinct. | ||

That thing would have to way WELL over 282lbs to be that large. Do a little research before you try to tell me I'm wrong. | ||

The only opinions that are really worth reading in here are probably the first-hand experiences. It's just too abstract a situation for the rest of us. | ||

Either way you'd probably bleed to death even if you won. | ||

Because straight from somebody that had actually fought off dogs was the advice that you should only kick them. Do you really think that you could just ignore the pain from a German Shepard bite? This is like a bale of hay with a full set of canines hanging off of your arm. | ||

But in such situations you have a ton of adrenaline, so you probably wouldn't feel it. | ||

Those things can be pretty fucking strong They can bite you to death we cant do that a dog can basically only attack you with its mouth, headlock = win. then just knee it or choke it out or something, shouldn't be too hard. Might get a few scratches. Or you can just anchorman this shit. | ||
