Yeah I wasn't scared...guess that comes from having pits all my life. My brother currently has trouble who is about 120lbs but he is the most gentle dog you can come across. He actually thinks he is a vermin chaser....we worry about mice more than dogs and cats with him.
Definitely if you show an animal fear they will go in for the kill. My arm hurts some where he put pressure...oh he sure put pressure it wasn't a puppy nip either. That is why I was so outraged when they guy was like "oh he is only a puppy" ...puppy my a$$.
