As long as Whitebeard can see his opponent, then he can cause quakes to disrupt, harm, and kill them. While Blackbeard could be trying to suck Whitebeard toward him (if he was even allowed the opprotunity to), Whitebeard could simply unleash some earthquakes or airquakes at Blackbeard, effectively stopping Blackbeard from using his powers. That is why I emphasized long-range fighters as having a pseudo-advantage over close and mid-range fighter when fighting Whitebeard (Whitebeard is, of course, protected on almost all fronts because he can fight on all fronts - he can use close-, mid-, or long-range attacks to battle anyone on the land, in the sea, or in the sky).
There is no reason to assume that Blackbeard's gravity can defeat Whitebeard. By the end of this arc, we will see that Whitebeard can dodge or block light; burn through ice with his sheer manliness; and do something to Akainu's powers. It will take the combined might of the top military to truly defeat Whitebeard.
