What is your favourite way to get attacks landing?
I was my few other ways but they are more advanced. Maybe a follow up episode is in order?
High jab ,low cross, long lead hook
High jab ,switch step ,lead hook ,rear low hook, switch step stat right exit on jab .
2 favourite combos .
I very much rely on speed and reach and angles from foot work to just overwhelm .
It's like anything it's dictated by body type . I'm 6ft 2 with long arms and short body all chest no hips so can make 84 kg just .
If I throw fast long range combos and ext they cant hit me back there to short .
I can just watch where they struggle to cover and start putting power to those places .
I like to blitz in by faking a switch kick from orthodox and immediately throw a left cross and then combo.
Hard to explain, Wonderboy does it a lot in his fights.
Everybody eats it a least once when I spar.
fast faint jab to the body changed to a hard power jab to the face
1.1Countering the jab with a straight right hand (2) to the body (at the same time as throwing the 2 , stepping to the left and making sure to get my head far from the center line ) Iâve seen you Gabriel Varga using this punch in pretty much all of your fights.
1.2 After landing the 2 to the body, follow up with a left hook to the head ( when landing the 2 to the solar plexus your opponent is lightly to drop his guard) leaving an opening for the left hook to the head.
After practicing those 2 shots with timing and precision.
1.3 change angle âmike Tyson style â jump to the left with your toes facing your opponent while your opponent probably is in need to make 1 or 2 steps to be able to get a stance from where he can start to hurt you again. The right upper cut to body or head is good from that position. đ
Even champions feel tired Gabe. You got a lot going on and as soon as you get back to the CZcams channel full time, we'll be happy to watch.
1:58 1. By utilising fakes and gathering data on your opponent
3:22 2. (Intermediate level advice) Go defensive and counter when opponent makes offensive errors
4:53 3. Throw short combos or single shots to gather data to be able to throw purposeful shots which will land
I wanted to thank you, Gabriel!
I'm a beginner boxer but your knowledge about defense and gathering data and countering and fighting taller opponents has helped me advance so much in sparring sessions
Bless you for sharing all the knowledge you've amassed through the years with all of us!
Hey whatâs the art in your profile pic? Looks cool.
2:40 faking the jab to make your opponent trying to catch your left hand with his right ( beginners that just learned that defensive move, always leave there chin unprotected trying to catch the jab⊠so fake the jab , get your left out halfway and then turn it into a hookâŠ
When you start having success with that move you can follow up with the straight right hand after the left hook..
start by throwing the right hand to the body instead of the head.. if you land the left hook (3)to the head you will also land the straight right (2)to the body 97% of the time.. donât use this move against beginners throwing the right hand (2)to the head, itâs a very fast and powerful combo so throw the right hand (2)to the body⊠you will still train your muscle memory (fake jab,left hook to the head (after throwing the left hook, your shoulders will almost be facing your opponent in a straight line, this is the perfect load up for the right hand. Bringing your left hook back to your guard is giving you momentum for your right hand, throwing your right hand in the same motion as you are bringing back the left hand is the key to making this combo fast/deadly and successful, the left hook should leave you with 65-85% off your body weight on your right leg, push forward with your right leg when you throw your right hand (2) )as a beginner if you are doing boxing sparring you can often find yourself with your feet in a straight line towards your opponent, making it very hard to use the right hand effectively in any situation, itâs good defensively but this stands will never generate any power from any of your hands

Something I haven't tried for myself yet (planning to test it in sparring today đ ) but was advised from someone I trust: have at least 2 combos that start with the same first 2 moves but switch where you're attacking later on (like double jab>body cross>lead low kick and double jab>rear overhand>body hook>low kick or jab>cross>low kick and jab>cross>head kick). Since the human mind tends to pick up anything happening at least 3 times as an infinite pattern, it can trick people into autopiloting their defensive responses if you do one of them two or three times and then switch to the other.
2:00 in the conversation starts you're welcome!
Love this. I did fake punches in sparring to create openings and it was so satisfying landing the actual punches
Thanks! Would love a follow up episode as well!
Being relatively new Muay Thai, my boxing skills are really basic. I train in Thailand but the boxing skills are not taught so well due to the language barrier and I canât ask too many technical questions as they canât understand much, however your information is so so helpful. Thank you.
Yes. That's difficult.
I'm happy you are finding the videos helpful
Your channel has been very helpful now that im back to training every week
Yeah man. Another great video.
Thank you
Very nice tips, thank you.
Will try it tomorrow :) great videos!
Great content man! Btw, how conscious are you about these decisions in the heat of a fight?
Hello Gabriel! I have a question. How can I beat guy with good in-and-out movement?
I suggest you watch Joe Valtellini vs Raymond Daniels. Perfect demonstration of how to solve your problem.
Its gonna sound dumb and stupid but just put in volume and pressure.
Like a crazy lot, fill them with things they need to worry about and they will never find their groove or focus.
Ive seen my amateur boxing partner (who has a phenomenal in and out style) literally taking 3 rounds to finally be able to fight back against his opponent who is just always in his face with volume and pressure
In the ring intercept and broke his rithm.
Out of the ring, bullets
Feint to draw reactions and time/counter the reactions
@@largocharles8729 not an expert but I agree.
All you need to do is watch Cody Garbrandt vs Dominick Cruz
Dom likes slipping in and out so Cody just kept trying to punch him until he landed like 5 knock downs through out the fight đ
just found ur channel and i love it dude
Lol good luck with the rebovations coach gabe! If i may offer some counter advice please keep an eye on your contractor and make sure you're visible to the workers!
I have another fight coming in December champ, and Iâm 100% getting the 3 tubs of Magnesium soon. So, they better work! âïžđ
PS. First? đ€đđ
Zinc and magnesium are great for sleep!
I just bought Bio optimizer. I hope this truly helps my sleep. On nights after training I cannot sleep for some reason. So here's to hoping for good nights of rest đđœ
This is really good, thanks.
No worries about us gabriel. Keep your house in order. We got lots of free stuff already from you to work on.
Hey Gabriel Varga I have first pro fight next week do you still doing zoom private? Thank you in advance it would be so much help
What if I make some mistakes to invite an attack?
đ
Great video Gabriel Varga. I also find that it takes a real effort, even after all the years Ive been training, to keep your eyes trained on your opponents face/head(I focus on their mouth area or nose if I feel like theres even the slightest chance I can be affected by mind games from my opponent - in sparring or fighting) while you are engaged, and esp within punching range of each other, and to keep completely calm even while punches(and kicks and so on) are being thrown at your face full force. I do it by putting most of my effort into focusing on regulating my breathing through my nose, exhaling through the mouth. Cardio helps TREMENDOUSLY in this scenario too, and similar ones. Its ALWAYS a good idea to have MORE cardio more stamina no longer how much you have right now, even if you're a professional fighter(and I myself am an amateur..I'd be called a club fighter probably, in Muay thai and in kickboxing, I train muay thai but compete in both of those).
it took me AWHILE to be able to build up the confidence to be able to stand toe to toe with ANYONE out there, no matter how trained they are, and exchange with them in punching range. My previous coach taught me a bunch about that; he was also the best fighter Ive ever fought even to this day, a former pro fighter himself. My current coach doesn't really understand why I rely on forearm blocks so much; its so I can keep stable and remain in position while STILL deflecting the shots and NOT taking damage, as long as you tighten up properly esp the shoulders and forearms, and angle it properly, this is the BEST type of defense in my opinion; even without gloves, though without gloves it needs to be modified SLIGHTLY - more of a long guard type of defense using much more of the "wing guard"(where you grab the back of your head with your hand and cover one side of your head, and your face also, with your bunched up forearm and elbow) and less of the regular tight high guard, nonetheless the defensive style is the same. My current coach wants me to parry more and to use other types of defense but its just not for me, it doesn't suit my style and I don't trust my reflexes to be able to consistently defend in that way esp once I get tired. I fight with this dutch style, this dutch guard, in a similar fashion that YOU do Gabriel varga, that Joseph valtellini does, that Nicky Holzkien does, and many more like rico verhooven and others. I'm honestly kinda sick of my coach just not accepting that this is my style despite me having MANY conversations with him about it; he INSISTS that a strong enough punch will break through my guard no matter what, no matter how, for some reason but it NEVER HAS neither in sparring nor in real fights Ive had nor in competition, because I KNOW what Im doing Ive been doing this shit for near a decade after all and I keep doing it and honing it.
Heh sometimes you just gotta vent I suppose. I already know how to parry and use the kind of head movement he wants to push on me. I just DONT USE IT out of choice because it doesn't fit my style and I can't rely on it fully the way I can on blocks - even in street fights. NOBODY is gonna "split your guard" if you properly tighten up when defending, tighten the shoulders forearms and also throw a little bit of a forward pushing motion INTO the incoming punch(or kick) so that its deflected or stopped even more, with more of the power taken out of it than a normal block, though I never move my hands far from my head EVER. Sparring my old coach taught me the folly of THAT. Standing in front of someone and exchanging boxing and lowkicks is what my style excels at, esp because my best moves are hooks and lowkicks(and jabs I suppose, though I throw more mike tyson style jabs rather than sideways stance long range jabs, at least normally). For my style you HAVE TO look at your opponent square in the face at all times though and HAVE to keep calm in the face of fire. Some styles dont require it to the extent that the dutch style does. Cause if you mess up you will get hit.

First af â€ïž
It seems like if two people have their guard up, and both are well guarded, anyone who goes on the offensive is just opening themselves up to a counter. Why ever attack a guarded opponent in a match?
To win I guess xD
Thereâs no really perfect guard so even if someoneâs using a dutch guard really well theyâre open for leg kicks.
You just need to disguise it behind punches
@@jaxonnevermore1394 Interesting. Thank you.
With chess it's easier to understand because you can tell when you make a move if the opponent will be able to immediately punish you for it. With fighting it seems unclear when you go to punch someone if you're going to hit them or they're going to hit you.
Thereâs always a risk but if the technique is good (like having your right arm up when you jab) you rarely get punished for it.
In my opinion
It all comes down to who can execute perfect techniques more.
Then even if they block and counter, youâre already blocking.
â@@jaxonnevermore1394 Okay, cool.
So essentially feint, counter and setup shots. Donât need this much time to explain.
