Entelodont domestication

Description

So fellas have you ever head of pig from hell, well if you haven't its called the Entelodont and it is an extinct pig like omnivorous mammal that resembles a giant boar. It is thought to be most closely related to hippos and is about 6ft tall.

Question

Basically what I want to know is if a group of people could domesticate these animals, and use them for riding into war and for hunting. I'm thinking they would be like a mix between horses and dog (in physiology not psychology) as they they posture that would allow for riding like horses, but also have canine teeth and are omnivores like dogs. And as for them being like related to hippos well click here.

So could these creatures be domesticated or at least tamed?
