I love throwing uppercuts when people shell up. Hit them with the canelo combo when they have a shell.

[@liamkerr7183]

The only punch you can reliably land without a setup is the jab and even then it can be a pain.

[@joeygoguen1525]

When I think of doubling up on shot's Mike Tyson comes to mind. Good video

[@TiberiusRexx]

Oh man, such great advice! I don't think I've landed many uppercuts in sparring...mostly because I'm scared to throw it at people I like. It's a nasty punch when it lands. Also, it's not very easy to set up especially against upright fighters like in Muay Thai.

[@hattorihaso2579]

I litterally cannot fathom how this channel doesn't have more views and subscribers its litterally the best channel for aspiring fighters like me

[@YogeshKumar-fz4wy]

Can you make a extensive video about fakes & feints? It would be great if you can do that sir

[@danny.cuevas]

This would be awesome !

[@NotTheWheel]

Holy crap! That Hook and Upper cut combo seems so clean I want to try it! :D It's like a Bop! Pow! >:) Love it

[@allthingsfighting4518]

Can you do a “what makes them so good” for Holzken? He’s got a fight coming up and he has probably my favorite style in kickboxing.

[@tylerjpitt3388]

Yes I second this

[@alwaysadventurous7905]

I also second this.

[@jagen1416]

I third this

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

Getting it made 👍

[@allthingsfighting4518]

@@GabrielVargaOfficial you’re the best I can’t wait to see you breakdown his liver shot

[@nave94]

Marat Grigorian uses that Canelo combo a lot, so effective

[@KGTV2288]

Mike Tyson was amazing at the right hook right upper.. It's #6 to #4 on the Cus D'amato number scale.

[@tak_1202]

last one is the coolest

[@allthingsfighting4518]

I can never figure out the Holzken special with the right uppercut to the liver hook but after watching this I think I’m gonna try it again

[@jamesmiles1328]

The best uppercut southpaw vs orthodox fighter,the good old corkscrew uppercut followed by the left cross,Prince naseem hamed was the most famous for it but conor McGregor copied it to,sugar Ray Leonard bolo uppercut was immense but he was a legend !!,think uppercuts are best used defensively believe me I’ve walked onto enough of them lol

[@KGTV2288]

Also Roy Jones Jr utilized the 3rd technique quite often, he would actually roll and punch the same hand sometimes. Great video.

[@wecanwatersports4151]

Tiger Uppercut! 🫡

[@marcioduarte2906]

Great content Gabriel! The 2nd one was used quite successfully by Mike Tyson as well.

[@nencat419]

Where would you rank yourself on a list of best kickboxers of all time ? Kinda curious

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

Oh man. Not in the top 10. That's a hard list to crack. You've got Petrosyan, Schilt, Aerts, Hoost, Souwer, Buakaw, Masato, etc. I'm happy with my 6 world titles but I need to win the ONE belt to have a chance of being included in there.

[@muladaboc3546]

[@crystalmoreno6020]

Ty for all that you do!

[@madaraIIII]

great video !

[@Oswadomob]

You’re a great teacher dude, thanks

[@gmx4087]

great content have learned some nice stuff thanks to you

[@user-ui4ys9kv6j]

👍👍👍 knew it but forget. Thanks for reminding

[@thedan2333]

I need glasses and when sparring it sucks that due to my lack of vision my distance is all over the place so my upercut usually lands on my partner's ribs or my own face :( haha

[@zo4080]

know the feeling. xD and contacts are not always a good solution. but I believe in adapting over the time and being able to estimate the distance better with the practice.

[@kelb3079]

It’s such a struggle wanting to fight but not being able to see. I recently learned from my optometrist during a consultation about this exact issue that a properly moisturized and properly fitting contact will be able to withstand punches. After going through my first match (several different brands and fittings later) I definitely vouch for her info. I recommend trying those puppies out, but if not that’s okay!

[@RebelSAT]

Always great content on this channel! Thank you🙏🏼

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

My pleasure!

[@jannegunnarsson9012]

If you look at canelos last fight you see your option 3 thrown a lot. Good stuff 😁

[@charlieruisseau2476]

Thank you so much!!! I'm gonna hit the bag now!

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

Have fun!

[@whoknows8223]

Have a hard time seting them up very interesting and helpful. Will try that out in my sparing (#1&2 at least) By the way #2 was perfected by Mike Tyson!

[@theboltthrower8661]

The Gazelle Punch + the Uppercut is my fav one.

[@Kibira87]

ippo

[@dpatel6393]

Coach Gabriel ftw

[@mykulpierce]

Gazelle punch hype!!!! Rocky Marciano!!

[@thepolticalone961]

Tiger uppercut. Perfect

[@yeezynapkins2970]

I've seen Canelo do the 3rd setup a few times to land a jab

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

Good memory 👍 Canelo has some awesome tricks.

[@mykulpierce]

I think number three is really good if you notice your opponent is using the focus of their eyes to follow your gloves! Speaking of where people are looking! What is your philosophy of what to do with your eyes? I've heard everything under the sun from looking center mass, looking at the shoulders, looking to the opponent's eyes, and focusing on a spot behind the opponent. Seems these later ones invoke peripheral vision as their main tool to read their opponent. Which is interesting when you start looking at the studies of fear response and limbic system. I'm not married to any of them but find the different reasons very valuable.

[@bingsoo9559]

if my input helps you, I’m an amateur fighter at least. I treat fighting vision like driving you don’t fixate on much and you just generally look forward in your “windshield” scanning the environment and staying prepared to address dangers

[@Brucelee-pv6uf]

I have question please I can't stand on my ball of the foot I do it with my base leg flat is that right?????

[@wingoreviewsboxingandmma3667]

I'm not really a fan of Hayabusa boxing gloves but i like your custom pair. Are those fight gloves or training gloves?

[@GabrielVargaOfficial]

These are fight gloves that they made for me. Although since I don't box we can't use them in fights. Perfect for filming.

[@sethbello5231]

what can i do to spar with you at least once in my life and cross it of my bucket list?

[@ne3113]

Set up 3 is so rude hahaha

[@NenUser12_]

Hey guys i just made an ICYTWAT tribute it would mean a lot if you could check it out and tell me how i did. Only high quality on this side

[@iChefTheImpossible]

I’m reporting this to youtube. Title should have been “Kickboxing champ wails away at man with no arms and legs” Have you no shame sir!?
