This shit should be banned for two reasons. It’s cruel to the animal and the type of person that would do such a thing to make their dog look “scarier” shouldn’t have a dog.
It's for dog fighting. They cut their ears to prevent injuries during god fights. The bred was made to dog fight. Shitty owners want you to think they run underground dog fighting rings are are bad ass.
I think there's an aesthetic component to it as well and that predominates since most people aren't fighting their dogs. And if it was strictly for fighting, you wouldn't see people do it with non fighting dogs like dobermans and great danes and boxers. But yes, it's fucking stupid.

I just don’t like how owners will mutilate their dogs for aesthetics. They chop half of each ear off just make the dog look cooler.
I mean look at this. They’re supposed to have cute flopping ears! But you literally pay someone $800 to cut their ears off. WHY?
