6 Dogs That Can Defeat a Pitbull

The American Pit Bull Terrier is a dog breed that is suited for companionship and a family lifestyle.

The breed evolved into all-around farm dogs after being bred to “bait” bulls.

Because they were so friendly around children, they later moved into the house to become “nanny dogs.”

PitBull breeds are sometimes misunderstood.

The characteristics that make these dogs such tough competitors are in their obedience and agility games.

Moreover, it attracts unscrupulous individuals looking for strong opponents for their dogfighting rings.

The result is that bull breeds, in particular, the APBT has gained a reputation over recent years for being dangerous.

For most people, when they think of a strong and bad dog, the pit bull is the first breed that comes to their mind.

However, there are some breeds that are actually much bigger and stronger than pit bulls. So let’s find out together which breeds can defeat a pit bull in a fight.

6 Dogs That Can Defeat a Pitbull

6	Rottweiler
5	Tibetan Mastiff
4	Presa Canario
3	Boerboel
2	Central Asian Shepherd
1	Kangal

6. Rottweiler

Both breeds are considered “dangerous breeds”. Rottweilers are large and heavy dogs that have the ability to compete with a Pit Bull.

Pit Bulls may show aggression to seeing other dogs. Especially when a strong and independent dog such as a Rottweiler is present.

A Pit Bull will definitely get aggressive upon seeing a Rottweiler. Rottweilers are powerful dogs and have much greater strength in comparison to Pit Bull.

A Rottweiler can also take down a Pit Bull, according to comparative research. It won’t be an easy fight of course but judging by the strength of the Rottweiler, it most definitely could defeat a Pitbull.

There’s a probability that states if a Rottweiler uses all its strength, the pitbull will stand no chance.

A Rottweiler has an aggressive nature and is mainly kept as a guard dog.

A Rottweiler’s canines are sharper than a Pit Bull’s.

Rottweilers can easily bite Pit Bulls due to their sharp canines. A Rottweiler will shred a Pit Bull’s flesh and beat him up in the process.

A rottweiler may easily overcome a Pit Bull due to its more aggressive attitude and ability to shred flesh off readily.

5. Tibetan Mastiff

Tibetan Mastiff dog was bred centuries ago, they were once used as guard dogs for livestock and property, and they are still utilized in that capacity today.

These breeds are used as show dogs, some prefer to use them as family companions, even though they are intimidating and massive, they look cute and cuddly with their human families.

A male Tibetan Mastiff weighs in the vicinity of 100 to 160 or more pounds (45 -72 kg).

If a pit bull were to fight a Tibetan mastiff, the Pitbull wouldn’t give up, I’ll give it that.

However, its only weapon is its clamping jaw, which would only receive a mouthful of fur in reality.

As much as many people want to exaggerate the Pitbull’s importance, the Tibetans would treat the Pitbull as if it were a salty snack.

Tibetan Mastiff can kill even a game-bred fighting Pitbull. However, in my opinion, the pitbull is a good fighter but wouldn’t win a fight against Tibetan Mastiff.

4. Presa Canario

Canines like the Presa Canario and the American Pitbull Terrier have tough expressions but look similar in appearance. The Presa is somewhat larger.

The Presa, on the other hand, is much more demanding in terms of his temperament and the training that goes along with it. Top 15 dogs with the strongest bite force

If not properly groomed, both kinds can be deadly. Presa is more aggressive towards humans than Pitbull is towards other animals.

But in my opinion, Presa Canario is more dangerous if we look at it.

If Presa Canario were to bite someone, it would cause far more serious injuries.

Those dogs are much larger than pit bulls.

3. Boerboel

The Boerboel has been bred from a mastiff and a bulldog and has only lately been classified as a breed on its own.

It is believed that Boerboels used to chase lions and would stand up on their hind legs and drive the lion down to the ground.

Boerboel weighs 132Ibs (60kg), and some weigh far more than that at 176Ibs (80kg). The weight alone goes to show that a Boerboel would emerge the winner.

This dog is active, agile, and fast. They are extremely protective, strong, and have a violent temperament. More violent than Pitbull if you ask me.

Humans are more terrified of Boerboel dogs than any other breed and so instead of keeping them as pets, they instead use them for protection on farms to ward off wild animals. 

Just imagine pairing a pitbull against a Boerboel, a dog breed that weighs twice its size and is more aggressive.

So the pitbull will give it a go but the Boerboel wins hands down in size, attitude, and ferocity.

2. Central Asian Shepherd

The central Asian shepherd dog is also referred to as Alabay or Alabai.

The thick skin of the Alabai breed protects it from harm and injuries, but this breed is slow and lazy.

Pit bulls, despite their small stature, are full of energy.

In most cases, a pit bull would likely defeat an Alabai, but if the Alabai has a more active and aggressive nature, the Alabai will most likely win.

Its physical strength and size are greater than a Pitbull and so it would most likely triumph. But think of a male average Alabai who weighs 154 lbs (70 kg).

Alabai has the ability to grow in size since they will smash their opponent. Who attacks first has a big impact on who wins.

You can train any dog breed of your choice, all it takes is constant exercise, playing games with them, and awarding them with a reward afterward. Their strength and brainpower develop with such intense training.

1. Kangal

The Kangal Dog is massively strong and an ancient livestock protector that originated in Turkey’s Sivas area. TURKISH KANGAL VS SPOTTED HYENA – Which is stronger?

Because of its size, strength, temperament, and appearance, this dog has been selectively bred for hundreds of years as a Turkish shepherd guardian dog.

Kangal is almost twice the size and strength of a Pitbull and wins almost every time and appears to be a step ahead of practically every other dog, not just Pitbulls.

Probably Kangal will win this fight without needing a second bite!

Kangals have the strongest bite force of any dog breed in the world, over 700 PSI.

The Kangal dog only needs to bite a Pitbull or any other dog once and it’s game over. With a bite force of 743 psi, no dog breed can stand a chance.
