I know this is an old thread, but you're in a unique position to know about the famous Dendy vs. King match so I had a question about it. The word I have is that King was past his prime & was not in good condition for the match, both of which are obviously big mistakes when going into a crusher like Dendy. People have said that King's owner should not have matched into Dendy in the first place given his dog's advanced age, & then after it was clear his dog wasn't properly conditioned for the match he should have paid the forfeit.

Is there any truth to any of this? It was a classic match either way, bulldozer vs. matador; Dendy beat a great dog & King proved dead game against a great dog, I was just wondering how true all those rumors were & what your feelings about the match were. Thank you for your time.
