I would pick over Wright Vargas Maybe Trinidad . Oscar was just better and would stop him late I think . Imagine that for a ppv night Oscar vs Norris @ 154
I think they were both schedule to meet at a catch weight at one time but unfortunately Terry had lost his defense fight before they met so the deal was cancelled and Terry retired soon after.
I think Gatti must apply pressure...ala Castillo and Jesus Chavez in order to have a chance in winning this fight. This type of fighters which I like to call pressure fighters have given Mayweather some trouble. Gatti is bigger and stronger than Mayweather and the two fighters I previously mentioned. I just don't see any other way for Gatti to win this. He must impose his size and strength on PBF. I just don't know if his mug will hold up on the counters that are sure to come back or if he will be able to wear PBF before this happens.
I think that a good beard is attributed to will. If a person is strong willed that individual will be very difficult to K.O. I think if a fighter comes into a fight with more confidence than his apponent or in himself he will be there all night. Not being discourage when things are getting tought and not going his way. It's all about mental toughness.
I just don't see Toney winning this one. If it was against younger brother Waldimir than Toney would stand a better chance of beating him vice older brother Vitali. The reason for this is that Waldimir would come out very aggresive and Toney will shoulder roll with the punches and let Waldimir blow his hole load in the first few rounds and go after him in the latter. Toney loves those types of fighters that come to him. He totally eats them up. Now Vitali on the other hand is a much smarter fighter. He would not try and sale or impose his size and strength on Toney. He will use his jab and throw right hands to control the fight as he has in most of his past fights regardless of size of opponent. He will control the pace of the fight with the jab and straight right hand which will make it very hard for Toney. I see Toney possibly being stopped or losing a one sided unanimous decision.
