Are these guys really 6'9" and 6'7" ?

I'd say yes. But the height difference was magnified by the fact Wilder fought flat footed and his legs spread wide, making him shorter, and Fury fighting on his toes making himself taller. Wilder is probably closer to 6'6" than 6'7".

In alot of pictures Fury seldom ever stands tall, he's often slope shouldered and head down. There's a picture of the two men standing together in Belfast where the height is visible.

fury was on his toes there, he does it a lot, ive seenhim do it for all 3 opponents this year. you can see another pic of him and wilder from that fight below

heres a post i made before, imo its prob more like fury 6'7.5 and wilder 6'6.5, which is what celebheights has them

fury was listed at 6'7 -6'8 earlier in his career

most of the time fury looks about the same height as wilder, maybe an inch taller at most. henry cherry picked those photos a bit, more often i think its close. btw in that one in ring pic above fury was on his toes next to wilder , see the 3rd pic below for when he was standing flat. wilder prob looks taller as tyson had boxing boots on
