Mountain's
man's
Zebo
(American
pit
bull
terrier)
may
arguably
be
called
the
"greatest
ever
fighting
dog"
.
Zebo's
career
began
on
the
yard
of
Lester
Hughes," The
Mountain
Man",
where
he
won
four
times
all
quick
kills.
After
his
fourth
he
was
shipped
to
the
yard
of
Grady
Cummings
and
while
there,
Cummings'
Red
Fox
made
the
mistake
of
getting
off
his
leash
and
ran
into
Zebo
and
was
killed.
Grady
then
made
Lester
get
Zebo
off
his
yard.
Zebo
was
then
sold
to
Dave
Adams
of
Ohio,
of
whom
Zebo
is
best
associated
with.
At
first
Mr.
Hughes
did
not
intend
on
selling
Zebo
but
Mr.
Adams
came
up
with
enough
money
to
change
his
mind.
Unfortunately
Zebo
attacked
Mr.
Adams
son
and
nearly
took
his
son's
ear
off.
After
the
request
of
Mr.
Adams
wife,
Zebo
was
then
sold
again,
this
time
to
Mr.
Johnson
who
fought
him
two
more
times.
The
last
time
to
a
son
of
his
littermate
brother,
Vindicator.
Mr.
Johnson
hoped
to
get
another
match
in,
but
was
unable
to
find
any
takers,
despite
the
fact
that
Zebo
was
past
seven
years
old
at
this
point.
Thus,
Zebo
was
retired
to
stud,
and
lived
to
the
age
of
13,siring
his
last
litter
just
days
before
his
death. He
had
lost
his
sight
at
the
end,
due
to
damage
that
he
had
sustained,
for
no
dog
was
ever
to
get
to
his
rear.
Zebo
produced
Stepp's
CH
Willie
and
Adams'
CH
Katy
when
bred
to
Tomsic's
Spider
ROM.
CH
Willie
was,
as
said
by
some,
to
have
the
destructive
ability
as
his
sire,
by
killing
each
his
opponents
in
times
of
:27,
:54,
and
:29
minutes.
Others
produced
by
Zebo
were
CH
Ruby,
CH
Abuelita,
CH
Diamond
Jim,
Clemmon's
2XW
Z-Boy,
Nigger
Toby,
Super
Gnat's
2XW
Blackie
and
Hughes'
Gator
just
to
name
a
few
of
the
good
dogs
he
sired. He
is
the
grand
sire
to
some
great
ones
like
Doc's
CH
Moe
who
was
a
grand
champion
until
he
ran
into
Red
B's
CH
Charlie.
Many
said
that
Moe
went
to
the
well
one
too
many
times
in
his
loss
to
CH
Charlie. After
his
victories
over
CH
Fargo
and
his
brother
Basket,
too
much
was
taken
out
of
him
to
go
into
a
much
younger
dog
like
Charlie.
The
breeding
that
produced
Zebo
and
his
littermates
was
one
of
those
outstanding
litters
that
only
come
once
in
a
great
while.
Basically
this
breeding
was
a
Dibo/Old
Family
Red
Nose/Colby
cross
which
explains
why
all of
Zebo's
littermates
were
red
or
red/red
nosed.
But
where
did
this
one
black
dog
come
from???
Many
speculate
Zebo
wasn't
bred
as
represented.
For
one
Mr.
Hughes
purchased
Zebo
from
Lonzo
without
any
papers.
Some
claim
that
Mr.
Hughes
sold
many
different
Zebos. A lot
claim
Zebo
to
be
half
brother
to
another
famous
pair,
Eli
jr.
and
Bullyson.
Although,
Lonzo's
Andy
was
a
black
dog
himself
and
Zebo
threw
nothing
but
black
dogs,
even
when
bred
to
various
females
of
different
colors,
it
still
remains
a
question
in
a lot
of
people's
minds.
Sport was one of the best dogs in his day. He was
bred by A.E.Betts and in his early days was called the champion forty seven
pound dog of the Pacific Coast. Later in life Sport was owned by the
McClintock
brothers, also
by
F.L.Dunable. His
battle record follows;
1 - On June 2 1912 Sport won over Parish's Matador of Daley City
2- July 21 1912 defeated Harry Houseman's
Clement. A
2xw,
3 - Killed Dayton's Big Boy of North Beach
4 - Dec.3 1912 stopped Bannister's Prince of Western
5 - San Francisco Jan.25 1913 defeated Cardner's Tiger 7xw for a $ 250.00.
6 - The Pool Room
Dog, Bismark
of Powell Street was killed by Sport in San
Francisco
7 - In a private match for a 300 dollar on Sept.17 1913 Sport stopped the San
Mateo Crackerjack Smokeball in 49 min.
8 - March 13 1914 defeated the soldier's dog of the Presidio who was claimed the
winner of 14 battles and was shipped from the
East. The soldier's stopped the
fight and the actual time is not known.
9 - Jan.10 1915 defeated Dr.Sand's Spot a 55 pounder in 1.15 for a $ 500.00.
10 - In a private tryout Sept.15 1915 Sport stopped Red Nobby in 40
min.

Stormer was probably one of the best English match dogs ever fought. Stormer was an English Bull terrier and staffordshire bull terrier battle cross. Stormer's record is impressive. The only criticism that people make, is that he didn't produce anything. Not surprising for a hybrid! Stormer is particularly famous for beating Ricky B's infamous champion Psycho (a great producer).
Stormer's first outing was into an English bull terrier Stormer was around 46lb & going 17lb up hill, this wasn't regarded as a match ,but Stormer won in 17 mins. First bona fide match, was against "jingles" Stormer at 46lb, going 7lb up hill, wins in 58 mins. Rematch "jingles" dies in 17 mins.then fights "spock" weight wins in 2hrs 26mins. then beat "josh" in 1hr27mins (44lb) then beat "ch psycho" in 1hr 3mins.(43lb) then final match beat "buzz" in 1 min52secs.

Psycho was Ireland's first official Ch recognized by the p.b.a.& the s.d.j. he was owned by Ricky Bernard for his first 4 matches: beat McC's "rocky" in 37mins.beat Chesters"nero"in 1hr2mins.rematch won in 1hr51mins.beat declan g's "sam"in 29mins.psycho is then sold to stevie b & renamed "hagler". matched into Stormer, Stormer wins in 1hr3mins. (owner picked him up). Although he was pciked up against Stormer, psycho got his reputation as being and excellent producer. Being a good producer is as important to "dog men" as winning matches. This means being able to produce dogs that also wind matches.

Unfortunately,
Psycho
was
sold
to
a
new
owner
who
matched
him
against
Stomer
who
was
a
top
fighter
and
one
of
the
hardest
hitting
dogs
of
all
times.
He
lost
in
1
hour
and
3
minutes.
Worse
was
to
come
because
whilst
chained
up
he
was
killed
by
his
son
Moonshine,
when
there
was
an
accidental
kennel
fight.
He
left
behind
a
great
legacy
of
his
offspring
which
continue
to
produce
excellent
results,
Grand champion Duke UK (staffordshire bull terrier)
Dock's
Gr.
Ch
Duke
was
the
result
of
a
mother
and
son
mating,
both
parents
being
owned
by
Dock.
Out
of
a
litter
of
four,
two
pregnant
doges
were
sold
up
north
and
Duke
and
Duchess
were
kept
by
Dock.
Both
pups
showed
great
promise,
but
with
age
Duke
started
to
become
very
dominant
and
so
they
were
separated,
leaving
Duke
to
run
the
yard
and
Duchess
in
the
kennel
with
the
rest.
Duke
showed
great
temperament
and
if
kenneled
he
was
a
quiet
dog.
In
the
house
he
was
no
trouble
and
were
great
with
children,
he
could
however
be
an
expensive
dog
when
he
was
on
the
loose
as
he
was
hell
on
four
legs
and
as
they
say
didn't
take
no
prisoners.
Duke's
first
official
roll
came
when
he
was
two
years
old
and
was
into
a
hard
biting
dog
called
Sam,
a
previous
winner
at
48
lbs.
For
6
minutes
Duke
rolled
out
like
a
pro
and
after
2
months
of
rest
he
was
given
a
20
minute
roll
with
a
56
lbs
APBT.
He
went
into
the
other
dogs
chest
making
it
look
like
a
26
pounder.
This
dog
later
went
on
to
win
a
match
before
unfortunately
being
allowed
to
die
of
neglect
in
his
owners
yard.
A
few
months
later
Duke
was
again
rolled
into
Sam,
this
time
for
30
minutes.
Giving
away
a
lot
of
weight,
Duke
demonstrated
his
gameness,
making
scratches
when
in
a
weakened
condition
and
in
the
eye
of
his
owner
he
was
now
ready
for
the
arena
and
his
first
match
was
arranged.
