Source for the jaw claim?
I suspect the "vice" jaw stuff is utter nonsense. The pitbull manages excellent bitepower with a conventionally arranged jaw. What proof have we that the jaw of authentic bulldogs projected?
My theory is that this is tripe cooked up by modern English bulldog-fanciers to connect their dogs with the original breed.

Need work
This page is fraught with POV and needs some serious work. Would be great if a professional breeder or someone familiar with breed characteristics/show criteria could improve page,--RexRex84 21:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Could/should the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullmastiff bullmastiff be included? Delete this sentence if assuredly not.
Old Roman bull-dog
I am removing the following section for being unreferenced:
- ===[[Old Roman Bull-Dog]]===
- Dave Coleman of Virginia has created the Old Roman Bull-Dog, in an attempt to recreate the fighting dog, attested in various Classical sources as coming from Gaul or Britain. He has acquired the genetic makeup from proven working stock to reproduce what he thinks these dogs once were - An oversized, giant framed Bull-Dog that can work, play, guard and are companions.
To return it, please provide a source to verify what is stated ... not just Mr. Coleman's claims about his breed, but also that the breed actually exists. I also think this section reads as something of an advertizement for Mr. Coleman and his breed (it talks more about Mr. Coleman than the dogs) so some re-writing may be needed. Blueboar (talk) 15:23, 18 June 2009 (UTC) CORRECTION- DAVE COLEMAN DID NOT CREATE THE OLD ROMAN BULLDOGGE. HE MIXED HERMES OLDE BULLDOGGES TO A MIXED LOW QUALITY NEAPOLITAN MASTIFF HYBRID INTO A RANDOM POOL OF GENETICS TO TRY AND CREATE THE ULTIMATE BULLDOG. HIS PROGRAM LACKS REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH, AND VERY LOW CONSISTENCY IN PRODUCED OFFSPRING. TO MAKE A CLAIM THAT HE HAS CREATED SOMETHING OF SUCH A TITLE IS A UNTRUE STATEMENT. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.28.245.67 (talk) 19:02, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
Possible inclusion of two breeds
I think that two more breeds from Brazil should be included, the Campeiro Bulldog and the Serrano Bulldog. If this could be done, that would be all of the major breeds of this type.Malcolmlucascollins (talk) 02:39, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
