There are a good number of white heavyweights in recent years that would KO Fury, Andrew Golota and Tommy Morrison instantly spring to mind.

But, white heavyweights are a class all their own, or at least were until the Klitschkos began dominating the heavyweight scene. But they are Russian and from the East.

I feel that Fury gets a lot of press because of his skin color and name. If he were a black man then people wouldn't look twice at him when compared to the rest of the British heavys.
