Gabriel Varga is a very underrated and underappreciated champion. He is a good provider for Glory and an outstanding fighter, one of the best glory has had.
Varga was really a tremendous fighter. He's very versitaile in his arsenal, he has strikes, kicks, knees, spinning attacks, fights from inside, mid- distance, outside, has a ironwill, a rockhard workethic and a endurance like a horse. What a beast!
Varga is the best attrition fighter. He will chip away for points from the beginning to end. Seems to have the solution to come out on top no matter what fighting style he has a counter in mind.
The sound of those lowkicks from Sitmonchai is terrifying, incredible that Varga was able to move at all with that purple leg in the later rounds, let alone kick with it
so glad i found gabe in my journey early, he’s the reason i was able to realize the true beauty to the striking seen in these fights. mma is great to see how not to commit to one area too much, but the crips shots and form on every strike in kickboxing is something i’m only aware of because of papa varga’s legendary self.
Guys like Izzy and Silva both had top tier striking. They don’t not exist in the ufc they just gotta change up their style a little in order to defend against other styles of fighting so it don’t look the same
This is an excellent example of boxing in a kicking context. Sharp, stable, fast, consistent, powerful and versatile. Even the body shots were awesome.
My friend, you are fantastic. Im a 64 yr old ex kickboxer in Australia. Two hip replacements and knee replacements later, l love how humble you are. Well done young man.
@@devontaelafleur3841 we know it makes sense at a BROAD level; smaller fighters will typically not gas as quickly as heavyweights for example. But obviously there's a shit ton of unfit smaller people.
Love the expert commentary, acknowledging the equaliser of having a Thai speaking ref, and also just the awareness of Thai style fighting, and the interaction with the rule set etc. It's refreshing - thanks Glory 👀
No he's not a anti-muay Thai. Watch his videos he talk about training in Thailand and was suppose to have official Muay Thai fights in the past but it never happened
@@SRC503 you misunderstood. I did not mean he hates muay thai... what I meant is he devised a style that would counter the strengths of muay thai. He trained muay thai because he respects it a lot and would like to know more and implement it and implement counters against it using his striking base of Karate and western kickboxing. Now you get my drift?
To me GV is the epitome of professional. He can hurt opponents if he wants. But he controls his power output to maximise points and energy throughout the whole fight. For professionals I'm sure getting killed or brain damaged is something they would rather not have to deal with to earn a pay cheque
Gabriel is great fighter, great instructor with loads of free tips and overall amazing guy to listen and learn from.... big thanks to this great fighter and human beign
Dude's like Anthony Pettis or Dodson in that he needs to take a beat to set up. If you give him a beat that's trouble for you! Good on Gabriel for totally smothering the guy, keeping him watching for the opening and continuously interrupting. Had to eat leg kick after leg kick since aggression means you're exposed for attack.
Varga is more of a Kickboxer than a Thai Boxer. Varga made a video explaining the difference between Kickboxing and Muay Thai, I recommend checking it out
My Thai girlfriend and my dog had a puppy that died a few hours after it was born sadly. It was white and had a black Marking like a heart She said what shall we call him before we bury him and I said Jai Dam She was horrified as Jai Dam has a really bad meaning in thai So we called him Jai Dee good heart instead
Great fight by Gabriel but I still do not understand everyone's fascination with westerners beating Thai fighters in a sport that is completely foreign to them. It's no big deal.
It doesn't have anything to do with nationality, it has to do with popularity. Muay-Thai/Kickboxing is a lot more popular world wide than in the west so beating them gets you a lot more credibility in the sport. Think of it like a baseball game. Thailand vs Thailand isn't going to turn any heads. A Thailand team beating the Yankees (or whomever is good) would make headlines.
@@liahfox5840 Muay Thai and Kick boxing are different, to the extent that Albert Wisenauer writes that kick boxing is "completely foreign" to Thai fighters. I am not sure what the differences are so I googled roninathletics.com/blog/is-kickboxing-and-muay-thai-the-same But I agree with what you are saying. A Thai baseball team beating the Yankees would make headlines, even if they are playing rounders.
cause a few Thai fighters dominated kickboxing in the mid 1900s. And since those fights made headlines, a lot of people believe Muay Thai can also dominate Kickboxing. Well it can in the earlier K1 fights but not in today's rules
Textbook way to beat a Thai with combos and volume, although yod is a master at catching kicks then punching, no clinch really exposes the Thai offensive style
Same BS comments from years ago. Uneducated, probably non fighter. Thais hands are not weak, plenty ko from them. Hands had nothing to do with losing this fight. It was poor training and poor game plan. Just food for thought, what would you rather take, five punches from a padded fist, or five well delivered kicks? I'll take the weak punch.

I hope he finishes his career kickboxing in ONE. I think he only has a fight or two left with Karate Combat

yes - great example of a fighter winning on intelligence, strategy and analysis over innate physical or technical attributes
His cardio and discipline to keep those hands up no matter what is amazing to watch
The sound of those lowkicks from Sitmonchai is terrifying, incredible that Varga was able to move at all with that purple leg in the later rounds, let alone kick with it
The word "low kicks" will forever haunt the Rufus family.
How so ? After his brother lost he adopted low licks and has been successful implementing Muay Thai in mma.

No problem
Jesus H Christ, how does a 19 year old have 104 fights under his belt? How is this possible. Is he fighting every 2nd week of his life?
Sometimes they fight daily
Is something common in Thailand, thai fighters have a lot of fights in their record.
They pro at 10 yrs old
They have competitions going once a week but they mostly compete every two weeks. Look at Rodtang, hes 23 or so and has over 300 fights
Once a month on average in Thailand , If he started at 10.....that's 108 fights.
9:12 Beatiful setup for the spinning heelkick with the previous 2 spinning back kicks that Varga threw, Sitmonchai was blocking a bodyshot.
💯
Varga is truly an anti-muaythai stylist! I love his style!
I would have love to see someone Like Buakaw against Varga, Buakaw really adapted well to kickboxing rules.

Doctor Strange out-boxed the Muay Thai fighter
sitmonchai gots hammer hands and explosivity but he waits too much for attacking
Kickingboxing is still awkward for him which cause him to hesitate too much.
@@arinjournal2197 kickboxing footwork is just fast but bad for entering the clinch and checking kicks.

Wonderful fight, great efforts on both sides. Gabriel Varga is 100% put together and his style is strong, consistent and laser focused.
Thank you
This Varga guy should start a YT channel.
Varga, great timing with the straight right. Good fight to watch, the left hook to the body. It goes on. Glad I got to see it, cheers dudes.
One of my favorite fights!!!
Varga and Sitmonchai are amazing fighters. It’s crazy this fight went the distance. So many clean and powerful shots
My leg was hurting just watching. Mr. Varga is the Terminator. Please be on UFC.
Watching him fight
Man .... This guy should go in one fc
Am I the only one who watches these fights?
I'm from Victoria and have met Gabe..hes a super nice guy.
nope...55 people do too
You and 31k
we got ur back
Of course you are
Great first round
Also great second round
And great 3rd round.
Well fough fight by Varga.
👍
Varga is a technician in Muay Thai. He could analize his opponents moves.
Yes

Is there a channel where I can watch something closer to Thai rules as well. Would love to see more sweeps, elbows, and clinches

Varga is relentless!
crazy thempo by Varga. Legend
Commentators clueless! jai Dam isnt when the Thai are ready to fight or have a fighting heart its Jai Suu:)
My Thai girlfriend and my dog had a puppy that died a few hours after it was born sadly.
It was white and had a black Marking like a heart
She said what shall we call him before we bury him and I said Jai Dam
She was horrified as Jai Dam has a really bad meaning in thai
So we called him Jai Dee good heart instead
Jai Dam is someone who doesnt feel anything when seeing others in pain or suffering and thats what he talked about
Why did he give up on chopping away at that front leg 🤔🧐

his name isnt Sitmonchai......its Yodkhunpon......................Sitmonchai is the gym name
Sitmanchai is doing well outside his element. Vargas is tougher than he is ready for.

9:05 that uppercut whistled
Is this k-1 style or muay thai?
this was a interesting fight, dutch vs thai style
Textbook way to beat a Thai with combos and volume, although yod is a master at catching kicks then punching, no clinch really exposes the Thai offensive style
No elbows throws or sweeps
This is why I like Muay Thai more
Sitmonchai is 19! Wow!
Gabriel is a great fighter 🙏🔥🔥🔥
Leg kicks against a Thai boxer are mostly useless, they have developed redundant conective tissue like crazy.

This Is kickboxing, K1 rules.
Nope Im here to:)

Of course it's not enough if you aren't allowed to use them lol.
