    No.

    Superior ability aside, I think Tyson's sheer size was a major factor in the fight. Walking him down and sitting down on his shots.

    A 6'09" will coordinated Cruiser with Fury mental toughness, could beat Wilder, Fury & any other Heavyweight. Those Lanky 6'09" Cruisers are still not available in the market (for now)

    Any Shorter boxer will get Knocked out cold by Deontay Wilder regardless of how heavy they come in...

    A 200 pound 6 foot 9 cruiser would be built like a bean pole and would not stand a chance against a 270+ pound Fury.

    6'09" Coordinated Cruiser will punch harder than Deontay Wilder...His Right hand will literally Kill people

    6'09"/200 is not as skinny as you assume, its basically a taller Deontay Wilder, but much thicker than Thomas Hearns

    8'02" is the scaled up version of Thomas Hearns at 200lbs, which will be 100% deadly vs any human, probably will need special hand-wraps to protect the hand from shattering upon impact.

    Tyson Fury advantage is his 6'09" boxing purposed frame, not the extra weight...

    Its basics...a 6'09" fit lanky 200lbs Cruiser will KO any heavyweight he catches clean.

    The human skull didn't evolve to absorb that much trauma, the evolutionary ceiling stopped when trauma was effective enough to cause the needed concussion. Taller males had reduced capability to deliver power blows, otherwise they would have wiped out shorter humans at the early stages, its a delicate balance between resources & needs.

    Today we have the luxury of a very diverse gene-pool & plenty of resources to support any over-sized human. So we can expect heavyweights average size to keep increasing, otherwise Lanky Cruisers will KO them. The catch with Cruisers, is that is much easier for a taller Cruiser to feast on Heavyweights than face Cruisers

    Guys, I meant out of the current crop like Briedis, the ghoul etc.

    Would you have fancied any current CW to have beaten Wilder last weekend?

    A Cruiser who doesn't have the 6'09" frame of Tyson Fury will get Knocked Out Cold.

    Well Usyk if you still count him as a CW.

    Briedis would have spanked him hard as well.

    You are insane.... 200 pounds at 6 ft 9 is skinnier than an NBA player.

    Get educated.

    I feel skinny at 210 5'11... and ive always been an ectomorph.
