14 weight classes seem to be holy and locked in concrete for many ex wrestlers, coaches.

A weight scheme I posted earlier was 15 weights but it also made bigger weight differientials at those congested 125 to 145 classe. Used a standard 6% increase between classes. One, two and three lb increase at the lower weights were used to make a the 15th weight class. Can't see that such a scheme can do anything but improve wrestling in all brackets, but especially at the heavier weights. Especially need to breakup that 70 pound differiential between 215 and 285.
