    Fury/Price are and both are chinny, certainly Fury as a pro.

    Aye, and top ten fighters like Bruno, Hide, Haye, or Lewis did not help the stereotype.

    There was a politically incorrect thread on this topic a week or so ago in the general forum. I think the title was "British heavies, Isle of the Glass Jaw. " The post chronicles many fighters outside of the heavyweight division.

    I believe it was Boxing Illustrated, in the late 1980s. They had an absolutely hysterical article on this subject. Maybe RING? I think Joseph D'Obrian wrote it/
