Gabriel stop reading my mind. I was literally searching his kicking techniques 10 mins ago.
me too also the last video
Same I was searching up "Tawanchai Kick Technique" a couple days back and watched that Modern Martial Artist video 😂
Wtf. Why are we guys thinking the same? I usually spam my roundhouse kicks to the thighs and i love conditioning my shins everyday . Just yesterday , I was telling a guy that I need iron shins so that I can kick like tawanchai
LOL
WTH I literally wanted to write the same comment a few hours ago 🤯😅😅😅
Every time Tawanchai lands a kick, another universe is created
A combat big bang.
Terrifying lol
I saw a video of padwork with tawanchai. I recognised something that I can’t articulate, but the way he curves it in at the last second coupled with the position of the body. I felt it. I ran outside to my bag and goodness. My kick was way stronger than any form I’d conceived on my own. I don’t know if the body mechanics I performed after emulating tawanchai is actually what is making his kick so strong, but I believe portion of the shin he’s hitting with us a large part of it.
You covered the other aspect I noticed. The arm swing. I think upper body rigidity is another factor to why he’s so strong. I noticed on impact he’s making a fist and it’s by side side. If you cut his torso off and just made it verticale, it looks like he’s a soldier with his arm by his side. I think the upper body rigidity is crucial to following through and not bouncing off your target. Those are the things I noticed. I love theorising these things hopefully it helps someone or you found it interesting. Wishing u all powerful techniques like that of tawanchai
What exactly do you mean by curve? Can you tell me the name of the video please ? I‘m really excited to try out the things mentioned in the video and the things you said.
Can you link the video ?
Tawanchai faces Superbon very soon. Who takes the win? The left body round kick or the right high kick?
(I know they have many other awesome weapons😂)
Tawanchai by Flying Dong.
I honestly think Tawanchai is winning this one Gabriel!
I already know it's going to be good ass fight either way 😂
@@elserpientethechamp2122Tawanchai taking that belt? 🤔
@@zacm9747 Yeah!
Tawanchai, in my opinion, is such a spectacular fighter, especially in his debut, when he knocked out his opponent cold, cannot wait for him, to fight Superbon soon, the left body round kick of his has so much power, thank you so much Gabriel, for making this explanation from a professional perspective, on how to throw the kick in every little detail, I will be sure to try this out on the bag first, then pads, and then finally sparring, cannot wait! 🎉
His roundhouse is so strong it will knock a horse out.
@@unknownentity8256 Definetly!
Another thing is, a southpaw vs conventional. The rear body kick lines up perfectly. Samkor is another great one to watch. His left body kick is amazing!
Always appreciate a Gabriel Varga breakdown. This was no exception.
He also does a terrific job of mixing between body, leg, and head kicks making it more difficult for his opponent to know where to actually defend putting them behind defensively
And it all looks the same until the end because of how he he chambers and snaps the kick like Taekwondo (definitely influenced by his mentor Saenchai, who throws the same hybrid kick).
This is a fine level of analysis!! Thank you sir
amazing demonstration and incredibly deep analysis 💥💥💥
Tawanchai vs Superbon is going to be an absolute firefight.
What makes you an excellent instructor Gabriel is the fact that you acknowledge and praise great features in other fighters and help us incorporate them in our own style. Your analysis and tips for using these techniques in training is priceless. Thanks
Super cool breakdown, Gabriel! Thanks a lot, great content as always. Learning a lot!
Great analysis as always!
New technique learned. Thank you very much
From a 15 years combat practionner, amazing breakdown ! Thx for sharing 🙏
This was the best Muay Thai technique break down video I watched!
Great analysis. I realized I also don't elevate my foot when throwing kicks, so it's good to know it's not necessarily wrong.
in muay thai you can pivot or land with the foot in the pivoted position, this applies not only to kicks, but also punches elbow and knees
I swear Gabriel's video creation list is being directly downloaded psychically from my mind 😳
The step out and the pick up and snap at the end you described are how I was taught from the beginning. It's interesting to hear that's not how a lot of Muay Thai is taught. I'm obviously biased but I love doing it that way.
X2
Very nice breakdown!
I love watching Tawanchai videos man hes my favourite fighter
Excellent video, thank you
thanks for the vidéo, super usefull !
Very true great vid man! Ive seen many people kick with flat feet at legs and ribs but on toes head kicks i do this. I pivot but flat down on the floor. Sometimes pre steps sometimes not. When i return my kick leg down i step sideways more often than not cresting a step/angle for rhs counter opportunity and to move my head away from counters. I also whip the kick faster from the hip usung my hip/core musles like a spring and at the end of the kick (contact) i really dig the kick in with the shin in while twisting it slightly down with hip on contact. Need to be more flexible to be able to do this. Kinda similiar like twisting a punch & digging it in on impact. Big power impact difference
Gabe, what about doing a breakdown of the fan favorite fight between Luke Lessei and Smokin Jo?
Hmm wild. As gabriel breaks it down, i realize thats exactly the same thing i used to do with my round kick. I never became a professional fighter but i was always known for having a mean round kick 😎
Gabriel will have one heck of a happy day when Tawanchai defend his title against Superbon. I'll be waiting for your reaction and post fight analysis when that time comes!
Major point you've missed: he doesn't use his hip (tho may seem to, for the unobservant). He uses his TORSO [to get power]. Or, in your language: he gets his "head off the centre" !
He really said "are you the strongest because you are satoru gojo, or are you satoru gojo because you are the strongest?" 😂😂😂😂
😂😂
Love your vids Gabriel & love your fighting style; in my eyes & experience his little lateral step is 2 fold. 1. Gives initial momentum boost increasing velocity/power and 2. puts opponent/target in more centerline of kick arc rather than later in the arc (losing power). Would love to train with you, sir & MUCH respect to you champ!
I noticed he kicks super direct and leads with the hip with a late chamber. The flat front foot is very interesting. His kicks are like a whip more than a baseball bat. He has the fastest kicks in the game.
muay thai roundhouse kicks feels like a baseball bat but your legs aren't baseball bats the mechanic is more like a whip so there is a chamber but instead of snapping the kick like in taekwondo or karate they aim through the target driving with the hips.
Can't wait to see him fight Superbon !
The other half of the equation is blocking technique. 1st. Fully vertical forearms take the full force of the strike. 2nd When someone kicks you that hard you need two arms to block.
Absolutely. Davit struggled to get good blocking happening.
That surprised me. Maybe Tawanchai is just that good.
Not sure.
Agree, as a coach I don’t see a simple answer to Tawanchai….
Option 1, I suppose would be to treat him as you would a taller opponent (even though he’s not) and drill the fighter accordingly. Either in or out. Just not on the end of his kicking range! Option 2 could be trying to beat him to the punch as he does have a bit of a wind up. Fighter skill permitting?
Thankyou also for your response, that was unexpected. I follow your career and wish you the best in the future.
thank you for this amazing review.tawanachai have a lot of things to learn from him cause his a fucking relax monster
Just watching Smokin Jo interview a couple days ago. He said he talked with his team before fight with Tawanchai about how to respond Tawanchai Kicks because it's very powerful and then he asks to Saemapetch (he interviews together with him and Thongpoon) "You know too right?" this part makes me😅
Yes!
Left kick vs Left kick:
I wonder who would win in a fight: Tawatchai or Mirko Crocop? 🤔🔥🇹🇭🇭🇷🥊
Do Alex Pereira low kicks next 🙏🏽 or his left hook
Superlek also chambers his kicks. New trend maybe? Tawanchai also has a crazy pushkick.
Finally someone admitting that a flat front foot is good technique during the rear kick
It's like a big nunchuck whacking onto you
It's important to note that when you step out with the lead foot that you are stepping out past your oppenents lead foot. This puts you off centerline to prevent being countered and it let's you kick through the opponent. It also stretches the hip muscles and let's you contract them faster making your kick quicker and faster. I call it the loading step because you get a lot not leverage to use the hip muscles properly. On the chamber, yes it is proper form for a Thai kick. If your opponent closes the distance before you kick it lands the knee into their body and even acts as a knee shield. It's like a hybrid of a karate chamber but you don't chamer then kicks. It's more of a knee. I teach others to aim their kicks with their. Imagine you're going to knee their body or face but keep the hamstring relaxed. A lot of coaches, mostlty outside Thailand, teach to make it stiff like a bat but this stiffness slows it down and makes a telegraph. That's why the best Thai boxers kick line Tawanchai. We have seen Buakaw threw a kick but his opponent closed the distance and so his knee lands and his gets body shot KO'd his opponent. In MMA there are fighters that go for takedowns as the other throws the kick and the incidentally smash their head with the knee. That's why I like round kicks. They have built in defense and secondary uses.
My keyboard is broken
every muay thai roundhouse kick has a chamber , people don't see it because thai fighters kick super fast but if you put buakaw, superbon, superlek, yodsanklai, seanchai, samkor or any good muay thai fighter in slow motion (x0,25) you can see the a bend at the knee, not like a full chamber (heel to the butt) but 90° degrees at least just like the teep.
can you make a video about how to fight like tawanchai?
This young guy is demolishing everyone
I'd love to see your take on the 16 years old phenom ghazali johan
2:18 you ain't slick bro
What is ur opinion on karate combats striking skill compared to the other sports like muay thai or ufc. Do u think their striking is better or worse?
just thought of this video yesterday (By the way, I had surgery yesterday and you help me pass the time, your content is excellent as always.. In addition to the surgery, I'm also from Israel/ Palestine, I won't say which one because some will hate me, I signed up for a giveaway, I hope to win and that if I win, there will be deliveries here ..very likely it will be)
Hating people for having a certain nationality is simply racist.
You can hate somebody for supporting terrorist acts, but not for where he was born
There's a recent video of Skarbowski (in French) th-cam.com/video/ieIys3cbCUc/w-d-xo.html
where he basically says that
- you should kick with your foot and "whip" because better range and less risky for you than the shin,
- aim for the glove so you don't risk hitting the elbow or knee,
- focus on left leg kicking, because it's the side of your opponent's liver, making it harder for him to grab (he will block instead)
hope that helps someone
3:32 I thought this was always the correct way of throwing the (back-leg) roundhouse, stepping as you lift your back-leg seems really slow and awkward
I wonder if the reason why Tawanchai does not elevate his heel when kicking is a combination of his height and strength?
He seems to spend considerable time on conditioning and improving his speed/ power.
I’d day the beginner roundhouse technique increases range and power of someone who is of basic fitness level.
I find stayinf flat footed on the lead foot puts a ton of pressure on the knee
Normally that can happen if you don’t have the internal hip dexterity, but what Tawanchai does with his prep step makes this a non-issue no matter your hip flexibility. The foot is already in the post-pivot position when you load up the hips with a turned-out prep step, so you shouldn’t get that knee torque basically at all.
Both elements should be taken together, really. The exceptions are when you’re *really* good at pivoting the heel with a slide along the canvas, or have the hip dexterity in all directions of a heavy-hitting taekwondoin or savateur (or someone like Bruce Lee, who does a no-pivot roundhouse in some movie fight scene clips I’ve seen). Even in saying this, savateurs love their steps off to the side for power, so I’d say stick to the prep-step.
gabe look at cung le ulna breaking kick vs frank shamrock
I wonder if the arm twirly is a kind of internal timing thing. Maybe subconsciously
ผมเป็นคนไทย เท้าหลักที่ยืนตอนเตะก็สำคัญ การบิดองศาของเท้าที่ยืนในตอนกำลังเตะสำคัญมาก มันช่วยให้แรงส่งการเตะได้รุนแรงมากขึ้น
คำเตือน : ควรฝึกให้หน้าแข้งได้เสริมความแข็งแรงไปด้วย
When trying out things to see what works for you and what doesn't:
Have there been techniques or tactics that you've passed on earlier on, but then later learned to like them?
You have to choose between
Breaking your arm or Skull
ok winning that gi set would be epic
Don't underestimate Kiria's forearm either, his Kickboxing style is that of a high guard at all time, so those forearms has been taking kicks throughout his career, it's well conditioned.
That kick timing was right, so there goes the bones.
As you do with punches, when you hit the pads, you know when it doesn't connect cleanly, timing was off, range is off, resulting in less power landed on the target.
But when you do find that timing, that snap at the end of the punch and it connects clean, THAT is it.
One Kick Man
Once sparring started, I throw all the pointers out of the window 😂
I was shure that diagonal step by front leg is normal technique
I notice that he targets a point that is like 15° before full extension of the leg he chambers, doesn t that give more penetration?
so from the foot postion its like a low kick just to the middle?
This man probably practices that one kick 10,000 times
I can’t not flick my leg because of TKD and my coach always chews me up for it lol
Your analysis on Tawanchai's kicking technique is like an unorthodox to MuayThai's kicking principle. His kick looks much like that of Karate's principle; unless applying the multiple kicks still maintaining that of MuayThai.
As a Thai who has learned both of the martial arts, I prefer doing the Karate's kicking principle, as it is more stable; and I believe it is powerful too (whilst most MuayThai practitioners opine that elevating the standing foot during blasting off the kick generates more powerful than that of the Karate). I think powerful kick or not depends on an individual. It does not bank on the technique itself.
his kicks aren't unorthodox in muay thai thousands of thai fighters kick like him or you think that tawanchai reinvented the wheel.
He clean fight too, dont see him teeping below or low.
Pay attention to the fact that it's personal. Learn the basics and then adapt it to your own convenience.
For me pivoting foot is more convenient as it allows more flexibility even though flat foot provides more balance and thus power
Is there push of the ground by back leg?
Now can u do his style?
Actually I like his way to throw it
Do not forget this mans shins are ultra conditioned to take that abuse.
No, we're not snapping our kicks.
I’d say you have to learn about your body and choose style that compliments your asset
Give TKD a bit if a shoutout on that late held knee chamber. It’s interesting how he kind of combines Muay Thai and TKD in his roundhouse style to be super devastating.
True! I've always said that i'm yet to find a bad martial other than the ones that teach magical stuff or "No/One touch KOs. But those are either bad takes on an art that does work (like Taichi, Dim Mak or Aikido) or something that a fake martial artist made up, and i wouldn't call that a real martial art
No. This is just how thai fighter kick, watch thais in slow motion kicking and you will see that the leg is not straight or stiff. The leg is bend always even when they land on the target the leg is slightly bend.

Yod was another rear leg killa
thanks now I can beat him and be him😂
next video how to block so you don't get you're arm broken
His kicks remind me of the dutch and kyokushin style
Step one: be born to throw power kicks. Huge thighs. And thick shins. Got chicken legs? Forget it - you are not built for the kill. Choose a different weapon.
gabriel, every muay thai roundhouse kick has a chamber , people don't see it because thai fighters kick super fast but if you put buakaw, superbon, superlek, yodsanklai, seanchai, samkor or any good muay thai fighter in slow motion (x0,25) you can see a chamber, not a full chamber like in taekwondo(heel to the butt) but 90° degrees at least just like when we throw the teep.
Their is no chamber you just drive your shin into the target while pushing your hips forward mate
@@mistermandem5530 you have no fuckin' idea of how thai fighters kick, every muay thai kick has a chamber.
@@user-eb2kv7bg4t let’s see some of your kicks
@@mistermandem5530 if you don't fold your knee it's impossible to lift your leg fast, again, just watch the best thai fighters kicking in slow motion.
Also gabriel did a video in the past teaching how to kick like a muay thai champion and he explained how they chamber their roundhouse kicks and how important it is.
If you don’t you don’t have a clue what your on about
If you were in ONE FC you would be able to face Haggerty
Step 1:
Be Tawanchai.
I have been doing round kicks since I was 7 years old and 99% of people do not fire there feet and calf muscle in there kicking leg when they throw it. Your kicking leg should fire like a jump firing it off the ground with the ball of your foot and not just using your hip muscles to throw the kick. That will add an extra %20 speed and explosiveness to your rear leg round kick.
Drop your insta
Kick with flat foot hurts my knee.
One or two kick may be OK but 50 kicks with flat foot, dont suit me at all.
Most Thai prefer to kick hard and strong
The average martial artist sucks. Just be you. It's kind of like back in 2005 when I threw my butterfly twists at a crazy angle. I was just very explosive. Other people tried to describe my technique. They over analyzed. It was just I was highly explosive at birth and was able to do fuk sheit without thinking about it. I know this dude in Savate who could kick u in the face at elbow range, lol. Don't try to be like him. That's a trademark move. Just be you.
This isn't just unique to him, okinawan karateka can do the same no problem
Well yeah, i've seen Kyokushin fighters do this as well. But the point of the video isn't saying that he's the only one that can kick like that and furthermore, traditional Okinawan Karate does not put a lot of emphasis on those kind of kicks anyways
Where are Okinawan Karateka rn tho?
@@mjolninja9358 lmao that's awesome
@@jestfullgremblim8002 They do practice kicks but not really towards the head as traditional karate is for pure combat. But in bogu kumite anything goes and it's not like kyokushin which limits punches, uechi ryu or shorin ryu they don't have that limitation they are completely different styles. Still awesome to see a kick like that at 50%power
@@niledunn4641 oh yeah i can confirm what you said to some extent. But as i said, they do not put a lot of emphasis on kicking.
Daddy
i think his technique isnt anything special at all. bro just has adamantium blades for shin bones 😂
These are kicking basics, what you’re saying isn’t anything new or special.
