Are there any sports geared more towards mastiffs? Besides weight pull?
Maybe cart pulling, or just obedience. I know a BM breeder that does agility but I doubt they really excel there lol, and I'd worry about stressing the joints... I don't know, if you can think of something let me know!
CC's are pretty versatile, but I think the size and lack of drive in a lot of today's mastiff breeds keeps them from doing really well in most dog sports.

I've noticed this... Branka is really smart, not SUPER motivated by anything, but she does like to please more or less... my Doberman on the other hand is also really smart but he LIVES to please. My Beagle/Basset can be smart if there's food in it for her, but she couldn't care less if you were happy with her or mad!
I think that's a huge factor in how successful a dog can be in dogs sports... like to please vs LIVE to please.
