Let me do some appreciation for Bruno. The guy has been point fighting all his life and had only 5 full contact fights in Karate Combat and yet he did so good against someone like you Gabriel. You have more belts than he has fights. So he is worthy to be applaused👏.
Absolutely! He's a strong fighter and has done well with the transition.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial yooo it's good to see you in karate combat, I'm excited to see how the karate guys adapt to your more "modern" stlye.
6 actually, before fighting the legend Gabriel. Now 7, after losing to Gabriel Varga. 5 - 2 in KC.
Agree - Bruno is one tough fighter, showing great warrior spirit when facing Gabriel. Respect for both combatants! Osu!
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Can a kickboxer enter Karate Combat?
There is quite literally no one else in the world providing content like this.
I'm glad it's unique. I wanted to provide something different.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial no active fighter shares like you. They all keep their secrets very tight.
@@youtuberschannel12 i mean Stephen Thompson shares a lot of his stuff in his channel, but yeah Gabriel is awesome
Have to admit, I was intrigued by the promotion, but never felt interested enough to watch it like I did other promotions. Seeing you now fighting for them, I decided to watch the event you were on and instantly became a fan. They made a smart move signing you. Congrats on your win!
Gabe, it’s special to be a fan of yours and to see you succeed in this new promotion is heat. Keep up the good work Champ
Thank you! Will do!
Karate Combat has evolved so much since its beginnings. The fighters have adjusted their game and are a lot better now. Gonna be cool to see where it goes from here on
Congratulations Champ!! When will see you fight next?
So, Gabriel has a ton of amazing skills and accolades... but omg that ad read was well done lol. Is there anything you are not good at?
I mentioned your kick control drills to my coach Sitthongchai Sitsongpenong and he said he used to fight on some cards with you and used to know you and your coach!
The difference in skills between you and Bruno was apparent. I think you're going to be Karate Combat Champion. While the other fighters I've seen there are formidable, I don't think they can bring the same things to the table.
Gabriel Varga, you are a true martial artist. Going through many disciplines and still come out on top, that's really fucking impressive. True winner, you are. I salute you.
Oh man that breakdown was just so good. You are the best combat sports TH-camr no doubt, those details you give everything is so clear.
Golden knowledge with live resistance on a very high level.great channel!
Much appreciated!
Strategies are important for fights. Make sure you have one before stepping in against your opponent. And make sure you pick up my favourite supplement: magnesium from BiOptimizers. Use code: Gabriel10 for a 10% discount! magnesiumbreakthrough.com/gabriel
You did great Gabe. Very proud of you.
Gabe we value all you do for your videos.
I think your reaction time can slow down but I don't think there is ring rust. What it actually is is muscle memory. For instance I do plumbing done it all my life. And even if I don't remember how to do something, my hands always remember it.
I would love to see you box. You would do really well
I'm very excited to hear about how Rachel's knowledge with body hacks help you
Great breakdown vid!!
These awesome informative ones is certainly helping me prep for my first kickboxing amateur fight in 2 weeks!!
Best of luck in your first fight!
Good luck for ya fight
Yea man. Win your loss do your best to learn and come back even better
@@GabrielVargaOfficial hey Gab, I got the W!
I’m officially 1-0 in amateur kickboxing ! The fight was pretty scrappy and both of us gassed out during the 3rd round.
Thank you for all your content , I’m hoping to learn more from you for my next fight !
@@AlexOsborne10 3rd Round? I would have gassed before the 1st round even ended lol. WELL DONE!
Lets go, Gabe.
Congrats, great content as usual. Super unique to have an active fighter breaking down his fights before he's even fully healed up. Looking forward to the next one
Taking into account that it was your 1st fight in Karate Combat, it was a great performance 🔥🔥 Your stricking is very crisp and you made Bruno look like an amateur compared with you, despite the fact he is one of the best guys in this weightclass... I also appreciate the fact that you didn't even mention the 2 (3?) kicks above the knee he threw, good sportsmanship. Anyway I wouldn't like to be your next opponent, I don't see anybody able to stop you from winning that belt 🏆
Bruuuuuhhhh this karate combat 4th season is FYAAAA 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think the idea of fighting in a pit is really cool. It's a lowkey test to see how well the fighters are doing. It can be quite the effort to climb back up when you've just had a hard round
The experience level difference was very apparent in this fight, but definitely glad to see you back in action. Are you going to bring in a grappling partner for future fights?
Varga vs. Edgar Skrivers no. 1 contender bout should be next. I'm calling it.
Fantastic! I really enjoy watching ... well, everything you put on youtube! Congratulations for this victory!
Thank you so much 😀
It was a great fight. Looking forward to the next!
Thank you Gabriel appreciated
congrats man!!😊
Hey Gabe, could you cover, ww super athlete and boxer jaron ennis, he's the second coming of floyd mayweather or roy jones in my opinion
Congratulation. Very hard
When you tryna get back in there by
You said in one of your videos that you’re getting older and want to be very consistent
I trained with bruno here in brazil and I can tell you he's a great dude
Gabe you're going to be champ soon!
Bruno is a tough kid he did really well against a wily veteran like you. He can hold his head up high. That being said congratulations. It was a great fight.
Try and train with Judo or Sambo practitioners because they'll utilize similar throws and trips. Also get freestyle wrestling training for the no GI clinch.
Just realized I'm binging all these fights on xmas 🤣 tomorrow's family day, today I feel like getting some positive energy, extensive solid advice and commentary, and most of all motivation and inspiration from imho one of the very best and brightest fighters out there 💪
Merry christmas and best of luck in the next year, champ!
Neat observation about the snap kick trajectory.
Great job Champ you looked dangerous out there. That was one scary opponent. can’t wait to see you get back in there.
Congratulations Gabriel! Love these breakdowns!!! Thank you
Thanks for the breakdown Gabriel, awesome!
Beautiful performance, that uppercut was perfect
By the way your channel has also educated me very much as a student of martial arts especially in the nuances
This was a great fight Gabriel V, I watched it live amazing fight.
lovely breakdown. Learned lots from this
Gabriel it was such an honor to meet you and see your fight in person!
Can't wait to see the next one!
Do you realize that you just beat a title contender right? Thats huge for a debut! Super happy that you won the fight and super excited for your next fight!
Oh didn't realize this was posted, was watching the previous video like 3 hours ago lol
Wait til you see the Lei Tai, it’s just a platform 1-2 meters high, and in some Sanda promotions if you push someone off the platform twice, you win the round.
It sounds easy but it’s really tough, and with the circular footwork and the grappling Sanda has, it’s a challenge.
Love all ur content man. So much knowledge pouring out. Thanx, homie
I was very excited and nervous for this fight!!! Really enjoyed it and also this video! Congratulations!! Wanna se u as a champ in karate combat!! Are u going to build a pit???
Awesome fight ! Very exciting!!
Tks again for all that information. You convinced me about the magnesium, what a pity yiu can only order it from a limited number of countries that do not include France
How good Gabriel varga Analytical ability in fight? Yes
Congratulations!
I just went and watched your fight, well done and the way you conduct yourself as a fighter and martial artists is Inspiring plus your fight IQ is off the charts 👌you a truly an example of how an elite level martial artist should be .
Great stuff As always. Nice fight!
That fight was really good, it was great debut
The pit and the different techniques and strategies it enables is easily the coolest thing about KC. I am curious to see how the game develops around it.
Yes. I've got to start getting creative and figure out how to take advantage of the pit
Great job Sensei !!
Great job on your flight man, Karate Combat is an entertaining promotion. Maybe you can start making t-shirts or gloves so we can support your fight camps!
You go champ! Get another belt 🏆
It's very interesting content but I was really hoping for the full fight footage with your commentary/breakdown running along side it in real time
love waking up to some Gabriel breakdown. let's gooooooo
As always - great video.
That was just wonderful, Gabriel! All of us have learned a lot, with you. Congratulations, and I´m waiting the next karate fight!
Thank you so much for the open and honest analysis and reflection. I see your style as a rock solid foundation for many martial arts / combat sports ruleset. Glad to watch your first win in this new format - congratulations!
Tough fight and a good matchup. Glad to see you got the best of him
I noticed you almost had a KO with the front snap kick and remembered your video about starting to use it. Congrats on the fight.
Are you fighting again before the year ends?
I am definitely planning on it. I'll start speaking with the promotion fairly soon.
Was great to see you back in action, adapting to different conditions/codes.
Really excellent performance :)
That was a very interesting breakdown. Watching the fight during the event, my feeling was that you were outboxing bruno, with your uppercut and body shots finding the mark easily, and that the fight ended up going to the more technical fighter in the end. Good to see your own breakdown agrees with what I felt as the fight progressed.
Awesome breakdown. Yeah, I've too noticed thai style front kicks aren't as popular in karate combat as I thought they would be
Congratulations!! 👍 I didn’t know you were into karate. Awesome video!
Excellent
People definitely think you are a kyokushin fighter because your style is so hands up and walking someone down
thanks for the breakdown. you always have alot of useful information for us in these that we can use in our own competitions.
Maybe a pit build for training?
What a very scientific breakdown and analysis of the fight and elements like the ring. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. Congratulations on a great fight! And best wishes for the future.
Many thanks Gabriel and Thanks for answering the hook to body I am one of the guys who asked about it :)
Congratulations on a stellar performance Mr. Varga;!! Ive been following your career for a while now and ive watched most of your fights (amateur and pro) several times now; I have to say, I think this fight was oneof your most impressive performances.your hands looked phenomenal and YOUR BOXING WAS ON POINT!!! Not just in terms of punching power (although that was certainly impressive as well)..but what i thought really stood out in this fight was how smooth and fluid your combinations were... how you mixed in feints and fakes; and also how you were able alter the tempo on your punches (something that i my self need to work on)..i believed this (changing the tempo of your punches ) was something that made it extremely difficult for Bruno'to time you for counters....lastly , your conditional was very impressive...i feel that you actually got stronger as yhe fight went on while your opponent started to fatigue and slowed down in the latter portion of the fight...no. disrespect to Bruno; he is phenomenal fighter for sure which simply makes ur victory that much morec impressive!! Congrats again Champ;im really looking forward to your next fight !! ...(also I am predicting that you will be the champion of this organization within the next 12-18 months (so long as they give you an opportunity to fight for the title...and if you continue to put on performances like this one. I don't think they will have a choice!!!lol)...Congrats again brother; that was a stellar performance and a very entertaining fight!! Can't wait until the next one!
Congrats on the win and thanks for this breakdown -- very interesting. I'm really looking forward to seeing the degree to which you're able to adapt to the new environment and all of the different variables you've mentioned in this video and how far your style and techniques will have progressed in the context of Karate Combat by the next fight. Knowing how you train and approach these things I bet it's really gonna be something!!!
Great review Champ. Thanks for all you share and good look in the future. Expecting you to get the Gold Belt. OSU!!
Hate the commercial, this was the last one. Juicy info not here anyway, cheers for the effort.
Great fight 👍.
Good analysis, good watch. Thanks Gabriel, like the detail and all
Awesome fight
the sterile grey walls and the crowd reminds me of fights in the school bathrooms
Meanwhile Buakaw is fighting in just 4 days. Hope we'll see Gabriel's breakdown of this fight.
WAAHOOOOOOO! I will definitely be looking at that.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial he is fighting Dzmitry Varats from Belarus on the 6th of July.
@@sshy153 how can I watch this?
@@klub7justinBuakaw vs Varats th-cam.com/video/447m2ptuZ9M/w-d-xo.html
Nice combos throughout the fight. Well done.
LESGOOOOO
God I love these breakdowns - keep em coming champ!
Looks like he threw you with a Tai Otoshi, or maybe a Harai Goshi, having a good wrester, Judoka or Sambo partner throw you can help for the next fights. Nice to see how well-rounded some of these Karate Combat guys are getting, incorporating throws, some ground and pound, and striking. I think if this continues it'll be like Kudo. It was a great fight, and I think the ruleset makes for exciting fights, I'm glad they at least allow calf kicks, would love it if they allowed at least some thigh kicks, but it's still a good ruleset. I'd love for this to get bigger, maybe for them to allow other MA who want to compete in on it (I'm not sure if they only allow Karate black belts, or if TKD, Kickboxers with no Karate backgrounds are allowed). Either way, great breakdown.
tkd guys are allowed
I think the thigh kick restriction is more of a marketing thing so they can monopolize a different viewership draw than MMA promotions, same with the restrictions on double legs
Great fight..
Very entertaining to watch..
Having point karate background i was impressed how Bruno did.
I do find it strange that point fighters change the way they strike.
I’ve done a lot of hard sparring and decided that point techniques can hit hard enough if you just sit down on them a bit.
They also allow for much faster exit and angle change.
Also minimal telegraph..
Maybe because i spent hours and hours working impact on my front front and reverse punches i never felt the need to change them.
Thanks for your breakdown, it is very interesting, if you do more it's excellent 👍.
And the hip tosses
Amazing video Mr Varga !! Id love to train and spar with you one day ! If im ever in canada , which gym shall i visit ?
Hey Gabe could you do a vídeo on Charles Oliveira striking ?
1 thing about the rule set Gabe, 5 seconds don't count on the pit wall... Only on the matt (so if you fall & stay on the wall they can keep pounding since technically you're not down). Also, getting knocked down to the pit wall doesn't count as a knockdown since its not the matt you're not considered down. I think that's what I understood from the rules. Maybe they've changed them since I last checked though.
Debuuut, awesome
Hello Gabriel can I recommend you train with a Judo player I had good success against a MMA Bjj player because I had developed good stability and defence
Would be interesting to see if you modify you stance more going forward. Maybe the lack of some of the lower shooting takedowns will make you decide but to do this but it would be interesting to see you use that modified stance you've talked about using in mma with the horizontally narrower and vertically longer stance.
16:18 we can’t all be Roberto Duran
Rematch with Bruno after a few more fights maybe?
