    Bro, I love how humble you are. You have great character for a fighter. So many high level fighters are arrogant and toxic. I just had my first fight at wako US nationals and lost (never had any smokers.) I am a high level athlete who played d1 sports through college. I have been training seriously for 8 months - usually 3-4 hours per day split between 2 sessions. I feel like a world beater when hard sparring at gyms. But under the lights in Nashville I got my ass kicked around. I couldn’t even think, everything happened so fast. I wasn’t fighting the same way I fight in the gym. Is this normal? Do I just need more fight day experience? Can you please make a video about this or provide insight in a reply? I am just very confused on what happened and very discouraged. Thank you for all the great content. You have been a great inspiration for me in and out of the cage.

    • @Cheeseisboss
      @Cheeseisboss 2 роки тому +10

      Yes that's normal, there's some fuckin sharks at national level competition, and sometimes you get matched with someone who has the perfect style for dismantling you. I hope you got a video record when you were fighting, the matches where you get annihilated give some of the most crucial data on your weaknesses. and about how you felt that it was totally different than in practice is right on. In the ring, there's so much adrenaline that your fighting IQ and decision making is usually worse than when you're practicing, but exposing yourself to more competition will begin to equalize your sparring level and your competition level. It took me about 6 fights to start bringing it up to speed, but other people can take up to ten, and a few lucky bastards just perform better in competition than they do in training

    Hey Gabriel, great tips! I always try to work in these tips early when training someone. I do teach 1 thing differently and I'd be curious to hear your opinion on it. I don't teach to tuck the chin but instead I tell them to point their forehead towards me (which ends with them automatically tucking the chin). I don't like teaching tucking the chin the conventional way because it can be suffocating if they overdo it and it'll lead to bad habits. By telling them to angle down their face, point their forehead to me and guard the chin with their shoulders whilst punching it goes over very smooth in my experience.

    Mixing up your strikes well, along with good fakes and feints, with proper mid-rhythm and mid-tempo strike selections and variations, occupying-space shots and intelligent lead side attacks, intelligently drawing out your opponent's attack/counter and countering it, plus good footwork and angle selections, these are things that I'd like to add based on what I've learned from Bazooka Kickboxing and MMA

    Hi Gabriel. Thanks for the great content on your channel. I have a question for you which will mean a world to me. I would love to learn kickboxing, but I do not want to compete. Do you think that by learning the technique of the basic 4 punches (jab, hook, uppercut....) and basic 4 kicks (roundhouse, low kick, high kick, front kick), I would be capable of improving my punching and kicking power by myself on the heavy bag? In other words, I want to develop very strong power in my punches and kicks. Will I be able to achieve this by mere repetition by myself after I learn the proper technique with a coach, or I will be still dependent on the coach to observe me while improving the punching power and kicks?
    I want to learn these things in the shortest time period and get rid of the coach, and lean only on myself and my heavy bag.
    Thank you very much.
    Respect...

    • @GabrielVargaOfficial
      @GabrielVargaOfficial  2 роки тому +2

      If you learn the basics with a coach you should be able to continue training on your own and improve provided you really focus on mistakes you my be making and continue to learn from channels like this.
      If you're not wanting to compete and are training for fitness and fun having a coach is not a must (although it does help a bit😉 )

    • @dcnieho
      @dcnieho 2 роки тому

      I think two things in reply to your question. 1: A lot of the power is technique. And your technique is never perfect. Even professional fighters still think some of their punches suck--they never stop working on them. You can in principle do this yourself by filming yourself and observing carefully, but it will be hard without years of experience. 2: Why would you not want to be in a gym? Many valid reasons of course, but to be sure, in case it because you don't want to spar: in my gym, a lot of the training is drilling. meaning you work with a partner (or sometimes on the bag) and alternate doing a set technique on each others gloves or pads. No head trauma involved there, and i find it offers more variety and thereby learning opportunity than a heavy bag can provide, unless you have a very lively and powerful imagination.

    Hi Gab, I’ve sparred with somebody who does level changes in boxing. Does this fit point number 3? I have more a Muay Thai background and seeing someone who level changes a lot throws me off. However obviously when kicking is involved level changing might not be viable. What’s your take on this? Is it necessary to level change in boxing or kickboxing?

    • @GabrielVargaOfficial
      @GabrielVargaOfficial  2 роки тому +1

      Yes. Level changes are super important in all fight sports.
      Guys like Mayweather and Canelo are amazing at angle and level changes and look how well it's worked for them.

    Hey Gabriel, just wondering if you can explain why in Kickboxing and Muay Thai that you seem to be able to jump between amateur and pro fights? Obviously in boxing you can't do that? Why is it different with Kickboxing?

    • @GabrielVargaOfficial
      @GabrielVargaOfficial  2 роки тому

      It depends on the country. In Canada you can't jump from amateur to pro.
      IFMA (amateur muay thai event) accepts pros and amateur.
      I think the big difference is in some countries like Thailand everyone is professional. There is a small purse your first fight.
      And in Europe it's not a simple as amateur or pro.
      There are different classes and it seems they compete professional and at big amateur events.
      But I don't understand 100% either because I just know I can't compete as an amateur.

    • @GabrielVargaOfficial
      @GabrielVargaOfficial  2 роки тому +1

      I think the threat of takedowns requires more movement.
      Plus the smaller gloves don't allow you to stand and guard up against punches the same way.
      Movement is better with 4oz gloves.
