The evolution of massive close binary stars with primary masses between 20 and 160 solar masses is discussed. A comparison is made between theory and observations of O-type stars, X-ray binaries and WR stars. These observations are explained by a massive close binary evolution where the boundary of the convective core of both components is determined with the Schwarzschild condition. It is concluded that mass loss by stellar wind during core hydrogen burning is marginal for stars with masses lower than 40 solar masses.
