The hypothesis can be one of two options

1. The bear was outmatched if the bull had its horns.
2. They thought the bear would be outmatched if the bull had it's horns and were mistaken.

Perhaps some of the bull owners had the horns removed simply for the safety of people tending it. Some ranchers/farmers do so to this day. I don't believe that this idea was widespread among those fighting in these 'games' or at least not in the battles I have read about.  Reply
