Why is dog fighting illegal but human cage boxing is fine?

Now don%26#039;t think I am in favor of dog fighting because I am not. But I heard an ad on the radio for a family event that was human cage boxing. Either I don%26#039;t understand the sport or there is really something wrong here?|||Because of CHOICE. Humans who choose to do cage fighting do so KNOWING what they are getting into. They train their bodies for years to take the abuse and go in there knowing what they will face. Dogs are not hugely violent by nature and in dog fighting, they have to be made MEAN. That%26#039;s a horrible thing to do to anyone. Humans don%26#039;t have to make themselves mean to do cage-fighting. They just have to be mentally and physically ready. And as I said...they CHOOSE that life. Dogs don%26#039;t choose to be abused, tortured, and thrown into situations where they are made to fight. It%26#039;s horrible. I can%26#039;t even imagine how scared some of those dogs must be. And if the dog displays any fear at all, they are put down and not humanely in most cases. It%26#039;s a horrible, horrible crime and no, I am not a PETA member. I think those people are freaks.|||human beings that do cage boxing are willing participants, they have the free will to do that crazy stuff. i do not get why they do it.|||people choose to do it but dogs cant choose to they are forced to|||Humans don%26#039;t lick their balls after a fight. Okay, maybe some do, but on the whole, they aren%26#039;t like dogs, well maybe they are. I am so confused, as Vinnie Barberino said.|||The humans are able to give consent. I agree with you, it%26#039;s all rather barbaric. However, the people have to want to do it. The dogs are never given a choice, and they wouldn%26#039;t be able to tell us what their choice was anyway.|||Your stuck in a cage.I think there both stupid.|||It is called cruelty to animals.|||The cagefighters choose to fight but the dogs dont, they are forced to fight.|||Humans have a choice whether to fight or not.
