They didn't really get "unlucky" with their genetics, they were engineered by humans for that purpose, and they're darn good at it.
This is not directed at you, but I'm always slightly dumbfounded when people relate to breeds of dogs as they do with race or ethnicity in humans. For centuries dogs have been selectively bred, and in a sense engineered and purpose built by humans. Pitt Bulls and a handful of similar dogs stand alone as being purposely bred to fight. Originally to fight other animals, and then for dog fighting. We might all the same, but dogs are not.
