Does any promotion do women's Heavyweight?
 
Some small promotions in the US still have the (very) odd women's amateur heavyweight fight. The closest you'll see in pro MMA is Rizin's Gabby Garcia fights. They are looking out for heavyweight Judo Olympians last I heard for fights against Gabby. Women's heavyweight Judo is likely the largest feeder for MMA, should women's heavyweight MMA ever become more of a thing.
 
I want to see Merilyn Sakova vs Lucie Wilde.

Make it happen somebody!
 
Believe me when I say you don't want to see a WMMA heavyweight fight.
 
I saw a women's welterweight- 170 pounds- fight in a KOTC card on tv once. It was pretty sloppy.
 
The heaviest womens fight i've seen on a major promotion (other than Gabi Garcia) is Jozette Cotton vs. Holly Lawson fighting for Bellator at 170.
 
Unless you bring in women from the wnba or another sport where it pays to be bigger I don't think it will ever be a real thing professionally promotions probably stay far away from the womens heavyweight game
