Hi, Gabriel. What do you think about a OneFC fighter from Thailand Tawanchai. I was very impressed by his performance against Sititchai and other Thais. Can you break down any of his fights and do you think you could beat him if you were in OneFC? Thanks.😃

@Kzany42 2 года назад

if varga was younger i think he could

@rawke7279 2 года назад

He one of the best. Top 5 easy in my opinion. Good request. His elbow game is crazy. Be nice to hear gabe break that down

@robbybee70 2 года назад

personally, I prefer my low kicks not be caught.....thank you for your understanding

@Jenjak 2 года назад

I personally like to catch a right low kick by stepping into it and throwing a right hand at the same time. Usually works wonders.

@remyhavoc4463 2 года назад

The only thing worth mentioning about Romero vs Adesanya 😂

@2North0Star6 2 года назад

Appreciate your coaching even as your training for competition. I’m cheering for ya

@jasonthomasmt 2 года назад

Really appreciate the effort and content you're giving us Gabriel. I've got my first decision fight in 2 weeks and these videos have been invaluable for me

@bassieenadriaan2728 2 года назад

Hi Gabriel, love your videos. I got injured on my elbow by a kick. I have a problem extending my arm. How can i ceep training.

@ianscott3265 2 года назад

The coach at my muay thai club gives us bodyshots for catching/trying to catch low-kicks during sparring. I have at least one regular sparring partner with great reach whose able to counter the low-kick catch with a sneaky lead hook, so it's a reflex I'm trying to train myself out of.

@jamiechau7727 2 года назад

Hi Gabriel, can you do a "5 things that make Tawanchai so good" please!

@cesarsantos3185 2 года назад

Not a right or wrong technique, but definitely a bad habit to catch low kicks. You'll eventually fight someone who kicks hard and fast enough for you not to catch it, and you are at risk of being countered with a question mark kick. Although it was body kicks that got the KO, the Head kick KO that Valentina pulled off against Jessica Eye came from the Eye's habit of trying to catch those kicks.

3:19 when I once again started to realize: martial arts are... deep. Thanks Gabriel

@yamazaki997 2 года назад

Great video :) thank you for finding time to still provide us with content- follow up video sounds great . Follow ups from body kick catch too:)

@baldchipotle4899 2 года назад

Hey Gabriel, can we have a video on Tawanchai? His skills are really impressive and his punches sound brutal.

@MrRobertFarr 2 года назад

Never really thought much about it. I think it should be allowed. Catch the kick and break their other leg. Cheeky people kicking you in the leg!

@neonjesus8831 2 года назад

That lil mention of your day made me give you a like. Sounds exhausting.

Hey gabriel, i do this all the time during kickboxing and mma, I dont go for it all the time but i like it to mess up other peoples rythm. on another note i see you had some good sparring this week. the marks on your right arm and eyes tells the tale. Great work champ. Love your content and love your fights.

@theclumsyperfectionist1087 2 года назад

@gerbracken2480 2 года назад

Greetings from Ireland a dedicated follower of your channel your content is amazing in our gym 90% of the people there will never fight including me could you do an episode on how we can be helpful for the 10% of guys that do fight what can we do to help them prepare for a fight ect many thanks for all your wonderful tips ps best of luck with your fight

@rawke7279 2 года назад

Great work as always Gabriel. I respect so much how you always tell you viewers to play around with counter options after traps, parries and blocks. Super important. Not enough coaches give you loads of options to find yr niche counter. As you said. From a trapped kick the options are endless. You don't even suggest what you think is best. Huge respect 🙏

Try and catch my leg kick and see how that works out for you. It might work in sparring, nice and light, but not real.

What are your thoughts on low kick catching? Do you utilize it or avoid it...or want to learn?

@Bigmonbone 2 года назад

I find that; 1. If i can react fast enough and 2. if my opponent's slow on the return with their low kick, I'll shoot my hips back slightly and catch their kick in the air, plus it gives me a little bit more distance to decide whether I wanna sweep or just throw them off balance and fire off a head kick

@liamlegacy3103 2 года назад

I'd say checking is much better safer and if you use the knee very damaging

@GabrielVargaOfficial 2 года назад

@@liamlegacy3103 True. Knee checks are nasty.

@Mbruteblondi 2 года назад

IMO good for mma since the stance is wider/lower so it’s easier to brace and catch rather than check. You can blast into a double leg or work the single as options along with the ones you mentioned.

@paulpelle3046 2 года назад

@@liamlegacy3103 definitely mate. That’s my preferred method. 🙏

@ORIGINOLINDIVIDUAL 2 года назад

My coach has allways told me to never catch low kicks, either take or block, im 6ft 4 with long arms so sometimes i do catch them, i dont think its a yes or no answer, depends on who your fighting/scenario

@Andyofwasa 2 года назад

For a big guy this is a better technique, because in heavy weightclasses you have more time to react your opponents kicks.

@rafaelbabar3494 2 года назад

Sanda contains loads of kick catches derived from classic Kung Fu. They include stamps or oblique kicks. Are these allowed in the competitions you participate in?

@TwistedMist77 2 года назад

Ya stomps to the knees/ oblique kicks arnt aloud in muy thai, k1 or glory rules sets for kickboxing. The damage to the knees is to brutal. Probably not allowed in karate combat either. Seems most stand up kickboxing rulesets its not allowed but for some reason its allowed in UFC for some stupid reason.

@tobias8826 2 года назад

@@TwistedMist77 Are you sure about the rules for these sports? As far as I know, teeps to the knees are legal in Muay Thai..

@rafaelbabar3494 2 года назад

Two techniques I saw in the Bubishi which I think would be really useful in a fight are twisting the neck for a grab around the waist (like a traditional mma takedown and a leg catch in which you hold the knee and push the ankle up forcing your opponent to fall to their side. Are these allowed?

@FightFlexPro1998 2 года назад

@jjun2891 2 года назад

Any advice on how to see and react properly to low, mid, and high kicks? I can have a hard time to see which type that is coming and react correctly. Maybe this is something you just pick up by sparring a lot?

@James-od4cz 2 года назад

If I'm sparring people who have this catching reflex, I find throwing a low kick a faint and then a question mark kick normally get through and stop them trying any more catches

@Andyofwasa 2 года назад

It is also possible to catch a low kick with your rear hand. With this tactic your lead hand protects your head.

@prvtthd401 2 года назад

I love and appreciate that you take time for us, but it is okay to not work on youtube when there is a freaking fight coming up where you need to prepare for an opponent to not bash your head in 😂

@tukoramirez8478 2 года назад

Hi thanks for the tips, what are your thoughts against a leg catcher? for example directing a jaw kick with the free leg... or what other approaches would you implement. regards!

@cesaralvesdemoraes3187 2 года назад

Usually the rule is, against blockers kick through, against catchers snap your kick and rechaimber

@russfong5555 2 года назад

Great insights as usual. Thank you!

@kadarr7953 2 года назад

Catch a kick and then high kick is a good option ? high kick is my best weapon, in every sparring i land a high kick but im not sure if its a good option if a catch my opponents kick. What do you think ?

@stillwatercamargo9606 2 года назад

Its not, better do sweep or punch If you want to high kick someone in the face do it from proper stance and setup, the leg grab serves other purposes

@paulpelle3046 2 года назад

Haven’t even seen the vid yet, but NO! Almost every time, no! 😬 I DID actually catch one in my last fight, but it was very close range. 🙏 Ah, sooo, unless you have weird Saenchai-level low kick catching skills, definitely don’t do it...or maybe MEGA close range, if it will place you in a positional advantage. That’s my opinion anyway... ...I’ll stfu and watch this now. 😲😆🙏
