Lamon Brewster Backs PETA against Dogfighting

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Indianapolis -- Former world heavyweight boxing champion and Indianapolis native Lamon Brewster may be "relentless" in the ring, but when it comes to cruelty to animals, he really comes out swinging. Brewster sounds off against dogfighting in a TV ad recorded for PETA. [details]

Brewster would slaughter Vick.

I don't really have much to say about Brewster but dogfighting is disgusting and Mike Vick deserves all the bull**** and heat he's getting right now.

[Run]

Brewster would slaughter Vick.

Haha I was going to say.

I'd pay good money to see how long Vick could pull his little escape routines inside a boxing ring without getting caught and murdered.

Good guy flat out whipping ass on the bad guy. Great as always.

Much respect to Lamon Brewster for speaking for those who cannot. There is a parallel between boxing and dogfighting, training and dropping weight and all. But the difference is these dogs aren't given a choice. It really is kill or be killed. That's not a way to live, human or animal. I am the proud owner of an American Pit Bull Terrier and sadly, the first thing out of people's mouths is if I fight him. I am glad this issue has been brought to light, and I hope Vick pays for the cruelty he has inflicted God's creatures and an American icon.

Obviously the average boxing fan knows nothing about either PETA or dogfighting. I've had APBT's (sometimes called "pit bulldogs") for over 30 years, although I'm not fighting them. But, basically, the rules of the dog pit, just like the rules of any fighting sport, protect the WILLING participants, as well as the unwilling participants. The appropriation of this breed by gangsters, bikers, and druglords as a type of "living bling" can only bring hardship down on the dogs and their true friends. As soon as the **** hits the fan, a lot of these guys will roll over on their grandmother to save their ass and stay out of prison. Anyway, PETA has euthanized dogs in their own headquarters. The pot is calling the kettle black. You guys use your own thought processes. Why anyone would fight dogs, or at least own fighting dogs, is akin to asking why be a ******, or Christian, or whatever. There must be some reason, since there are 1 billion of each, not to mention an estimated 2 million APBT's in this country. BTW most people, even fighters, aren't worthy to hold the leash of a truly game dog. You all might want to check out some of Richard Stratton's books on the breed, rather than just popping off, although I know that is asking a lot of some of the people on this board. Just like boxing or any "bloodsport", the fighters depend in a large part on their corner to know when to give it up or, in the case of dogs, picked up. Don't buy the media crap. Think for yourselves. Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey, John Corcoran, and many other great fighters have owned APBT's and associated with, if not actually fought, dogs. The pit bulldog was the Marine mascot until they became "politically correct" with the English bulldog. Nothing is as simple as it seems.....

Nice to read that Lamon Brewster has spoken out against dogfighting.

Lamon has a lot of fine qualities as a man: he's a good sport who admits defeat without excuses, he's a man of strong character who believes in God and lives a Christian lifestyle, and he's kindhearted person with compassion for animals.
