Currently is pitted against Alabais, Tosas, Kangals in Japan and China, with the Sind Mastiff, Bulli Kutta. Tosas win in the 90% of the fights, even destroy bigger and heavier Alabais. The Muscle of the Tosas seems to be the advantage, since they push with the body. Contrary to the Kangals and other shepherd dogs they did not let other dogs to bite their front legs, I am not in favor of the dog pits, but is a reality from the Caucasus to China.
