The number is not significant, it was an example. If your dog is having lots of fights, but no damage, the dog most likely has good bite inhibition and is able to be rehab'd. If your dog has sent several others to the hospital, that's a problem.

6 fights, no hospital, not unworkable
4 fights, 2 with serious bites, big problem

It's not the number of fights, but the way they have come out. "Fight to bite ratio"

The rest of it refers to classic behaviour theory. You'd be better to grab a good book and read up on it.
