partial list:
Klitschko
Wilder
Povetkin
Fury
Pulev
Jennings
Huck
Glazkov
Cunningham
Kovalev
Basically will come down to walkaround weights for the fights. They'll be a class of 230+ talented guys, with a class of 210-190 pound guy under that; any fighter smaller than that likely wouldn't be able to compete in the openweight environment.Comment

Having weight classes is not protecting anybody. It's just common sense. The top ten would all be heavyweights. Lets say instead you had a power lifting contest among the best power lifters in the world but no weight classes. Whoever lifted the most weight wins, period. Do you seriously think any lifter under 200 pounds would be in the top 50? It wouldn't be a fair contest any more than a 106 pounder boxing a 240 pounder would be a fair contest. Please put your thinking cap on and try to come up with a better idea for a thread than this one.Comment
