OtisTheMarsupial, please explain to me why you had to report the OP to the moderator? Huh? What is so bad about this post that you need to report it?

Much like poker, the best answer is "it depends".

First, two guys might actually have a better shot against a trained attack dog. Trained dogs are usually taught to grab a person's arm. An untrained dog might go anywhere.

Second, the assumption that the human is stronger is not necessarily the case. Rottweillers can pull tremendous amounts of weight.

All I know is I wouldn't want to fight my dog.

The OP was reported?? That's amazing.

Does anyone think if the dog was trained to go for the nuts... one guy down, go for the second, then go for the jugular once they're down...I think that would be a winner.

I swayed a little, but I still think, as long as the people are wearing normal street clothes (w/ sneakers) a trained dog ought to have no problem with them. Especially those 200 lb. muscle clots.

me and a bud stomped a poodle out once. but since my buddy only has 1 leg and a stump and it was a really big poodle and we didn't sneak up on it i think it is about the same.

so yes.

If the guys were committed to killing the dog, I think they win easy (if one of them getting shred to bits qualifies as easy), but that requires that the one not getting eaten acts immediately.

2 on 1 this really isn't close IMO. The humans win. Heck, apparently one human can almost take down a full sized crocodile. This seems like a total mismatch.

Mind set of the humans is the most important thing here.

If they realize and mentally prepare that this will be a fight to death , they will almost always win, provided they are average fit grown ups.
