In a straight fight, would a BIS fully itemized monk beat a BIS fully itemized warrior, face to face tanking/dpsing each other?
The monk would naked..
So if the warrior can beat the monk fully geared, then the warrior gets the most benefit.

That's if class power is based purely on the ability to avoid, take, and put out damage in a rock em sock em 1v1 duel though. Those restrictions wouldn't allow players to showcase much in terms of know-how, which is why the BotB tournaments always seemed out of place personally, at least on PvE servers. Even on PvP servers, you still have to account for the environment and its NPCs, unlike in the Arena.
A class that has shadowstep can go from the top of the gorge in OT to the bottom without taking fall damage. A class with gravflux can launch themselves back up to drop-off points. A class with feign death run headlong into a pack of mobs and be safely out of range of opponents, swapping in worn regen items until ready to restart the fight. It's a different kind of power but no less powerful, and some gear upgrades allow for more of it.
