This is basically what the person that died did. They projected human emotions and actions onto an animal. An XL Bully is not Mike Tyson...
No one is "holding their own" against a XL Bully. Frankly, few people are holding their own against any large dog breeds. All dogs are dangerous, some more so than others.
This is why ownership of specific breeds should only be done in controlled environments. If you're dancing around the kitchen with your XL Bully in order to prove a point, chances are that you're not providing a controlled environment! As someone that has owned rescue dogs, ALL dogs should be in controlled and comforting environments to some extent, even more so with XL Bullies.
Alongside this, the second you ban something in the UK, the breeding black market is going to go into overdrive. Those dogs will be on the streets and in the hands of people that want to abuse them and use them like weapons faster than you can blink.
