Yes.Based on what would they be physically superior to Finn? That's your arbitrary opinion, and is ultimately conjecture. Finn was taught in the Jedi-esque arts, and participated in grueling war simulations several times a day. The FO troopers were trained much, much more brutally than the Republic clones and would thus be more durable, stronger and faster.
They don't have a Jedi's augmentation or precognition, true... But that's why their training should, logically(you do know that word, right? Logic isn't a foreign concept to your cognition, I assume) be much more brutal and harder than the training of Stormtroopers or Clone Troopers, since they're trained in similar ways to Jedi, go through rigorous combat simulations daily, and are in an Order where the weak die and strong survive, who's training isn't overseen by a calm, compassionate Jedi, but by a blood thirsty Dark Sider and his commanders.
Based on their outright superior genetics. It being a more brutal training regimen doesn't equal automatic superiority, especially when the genetics are superior.
They were trained by what translated to Jedi training, but again, they can't replicate it, so its almost pointless.
I'm curious as to what you mean by Jedi-esque, are they learning saber forms or some shit? 😬
A sith training First Order stoemtroopers in the ways of the Jedi, the Jedi who by that point in time were considered a myth.
The Royal Guards of Palpatine would make Finn their *****. You think First Order training is rigorous?

Superior genetics based on what? Few Clones actually live up that "superior genetics.
And yeah, surviving and succeeding in much more brutal training and battles would lead one to become a superior fighter. Like I said, I hope logic isn't a foreign concept to you.

Jedi-esque as in probably trial of the flesh, spirit, courage, and things of that nature. As well as learning melee combat, and going through training sessions to be built to physical perfection. Much like a Jedi.

The Dark Sider in question lived during the Clone Wars and saw the Empire "rise and fall", he's more than aware of what the Jedi are capable of, plus his apprentice was a Jedi, who in turn has fought and killed dozens of Jedi.

Palpatine's Royal Guard are Force sensitive and capable of beating MagnaGuards, so they'd beat Finn, sure.

Yes, it's stated that way and by all means it's presented that way.

It's believable that Boba Fett can kill several jedi with his bare hands, but not that Finn can take on the average, random Padawan? Never change, KMC.

It's also believable that a single assassin can give Kenobi grief in TCW, but not that the absolute best of an Order of supersoldiers trained to fight Jedi can't beat a Jedi.Sorta how logic works around these parts.
You mean Pre-Viszla? The best Mandalorian living at that time?
The one who got stalemated by TCW Ahsoka ****ing Tano, got beat by Maul and Kenobi, who were both just toying with him? (Which is confirmed)

No, not Pre Viszla. There's instances where a simple Mandalorian fought and gave pause to Kenobi, and where a flipping pirate, Hondo Onaka, held off Anakin Skywalker.
Canon is infamous for letting non-Force sensitives battle Force sensitives, and beings with far less accolades, less training, and less demonstrated skill have been threats to Jedi. Why Finn cannot is beyond me, lmao.

Actually, he was worth more. He stomped a lot more than that during training sessions, without getting pause in-between fights, and those Troopers are trained far better in terms of melee combat than your regular Clone/Storm Troopers.
Attempt to comprehend!
