The name "pit" was later affixed to the name later, due to their prevalence for being found in the "pits" for "ratting".
That being said, they weren't BRED to be fought in pits, actually, they were BRED to combine the various traits of another breed, hoping to get the "best" of both worlds.
In the case of the APBT, they wanted to combine strength with agility.
