- Here's my breakdown of my victory against Lerdsila. This fight was more than just training cardio and showing up without a game plan.

I'll be sure to do some more videos like this. How I prepared for Kevin Ross. How I game planned for my first GLORY title against Mosab Amrani.
And apologies for the double outro. I just noticed it and was apparently a bit too rushed trying to get this video up.
Gabriel Varga great video, thanks a lot for sharing such incredible experience.
looking forward to watching more of your videos 🙏❤️
Why haven't I heard about Gabriel Varga before? Because I was uneducated. Thanks for sharing your knowledge sir, you are the man!
@@mariocassal2001 And because I'm not an MMA star. Kickboxers don't get as much love.
Glad to have you here.
Awesome fight! A win well earned, I'd go as far as to say he gets to share that legendary title with you now. I am curious though, do you have any ideas on what Lerdsila's thoughts were about yourself and/or the fight itself? I imagine he was excited to have such a challenge(r).
@@nickmangold2393 I only talked to him in 2016 and 2017 in China. He has limited ability to speak English and I speak no Thai so all that I understand were some kind words where he said something like "you very very good fighter, one of the best".
Had the chance to meet Lerdsila when I was training in Thailand, just watching him the way he moves around when on the bag or doing pad work was the most beauitful thing I have ever seen.
For sure. I remember watching his training footage. He's a special muay thai fighter.
I am with the other fans of yours, more fight breakdown videos please!
I will get them up now that I know you guys enjoy these videos.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Dude, we LOVE these videos!
It is pretty incredible that we have the opportunity to see you analyzing this fight yourself.
Yeah, indeed, fast internet is amazing when used for good purpose.
You are like a chess grandmaster of kickboxing, capitalizing on those weaknesses are really amazing.
Wow. How a ~20 fight new guy beats a ~200 fight legend by preparing simple techniques to meet each aspect of the legend's game.
This video is truly unique:
(1) The fight was at a world-class level;
(2) There was a yawning mismatch in experience and raw skill;
(3) The underdog with preparation, tactics, and strategy; and
(4) The fighter himself is able to clearly articulate the thinking behind the fight.
I hope this channel takes off.
Thanks so much!
I appreciate the support.
mismatch in raw skill? I would say his prep was so sucessful becaus the thai has very few tools in the box.....sucessful tools, but few
Every fighter has certain habits and patterns that they will resort to during a fight, especially at high level where fighters have to rely heavily on techniques whose thousands and thousands of repetitions have been drilled into them before the fight even happens. So the formation of a correct game plan always starts with the study of a fighter's habits: which combos does he use the most, how does he block the 1-2, does he like to brawl it out or is he a mobile trickster, etc. The art of fighting is thusly to answer those questions and adjust accordingly: take away the fight your opponent want to fight in, force him into unfamiliar fighting ranges, deny him his favorite punches, exploit the openings of his preferred guard. And even though Varga did all of this way before his fight with Lerdsila even took place, it has to be said that this game plan also requires a high level fighter respectively in order to successfully execute it in a competitive fight. So hats off to him for doing his homework properly, and also for managing to keep his composure in face of such an exceptional opponent. Thank you for this breakdown video, Varga.
I think this was the fight that really projected your career, due to the fact Lerdsila was so good and you beat him so easily. I remember you preparing for this fight.
I think it was the hardest I've ever trained.
I remember running sessions.
2km warm up.
Warmup sprints.
10x100 metre sprints
3x400m sprints
Over 500 stairs
10 minutes of pushups etc
Cool down jog
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Woah that sounds gruesome! Question: does running up and down stairs hurt your knees at all?
@@Asasukie I think my pace going down stairs is more of a speed walk. I almost never run on anything that is downhill. Because yes it hurts the hips and knees eventually.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial you did that every single training day in prep? I guess not?
What a coincidence, I thought of asking you this question the other day and I was going to save it for the next seminar with you. Sweet vid, legendary fighter
Perfect timing 😀
This was a fantastic video, Gabriel! I would love to see more of this type of content.
Everything was explained very eloquently, and it made for a fascinating insight into the mind of a champion. I found the lengths that you went to to analyse and then just completely disrupt and dismantle your opponent very inspirational. Your diligence and commitment to your craft is obvious and in my eyes this commands absolute respect. Hats off to you and please keep the great content coming!
Thank you. I'll get similar videos out soon.
Damn Gabriel, this is gold! You are such an intelligent fighter, thank you for sharing. Been subbed for a long time now and I have to say that this is the best striking channel on RUclips!
Thanks for the long time sub and the awesome feedback. I love hearing the videos are enjoyed. 🙏
It motivates me to keep making more.
A great video in so many ways. You show how incredibly cerebral fighting is at this level and that you (and your team) are brilliant tacticians. Great editing as well.
Wisdom right here!!!
Would be great to see a full fight breakdown,similar to this.
Maybe Bellator allows you to upload your fighths with commentary ?
I can definitely do that.
amazing prep, mentally & tactically !
Stumbled upon this channel (seemingly)randomly, by chance..but this might actually be the best muay thai channel on RUclips that I've seen yet( and there are some really good ones out there).. amazing content; thank you so much for posting!!
Wow. Thanks for saying that.
I'm still working on improving and I'm working hard at finding what style of videos are best to share.
Glad to have you and I hope hope you enjoy all the content I'll be sharing.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial np; and it's great that you have the attitude that you want to keep improving and trying some different style videos; but honestly I think the formula you have right now is perfect; just found the channel a few days ago and I've already been binge watched half of the videos;lol... I'm sure I will have seen all of them at least twice by the end of the month...lol.. definitely going to post this on Facebook and share them with some friends( if that's okay); this is real top-notch material from a world champion; so generous of you to post these on RUclips for free; thanks again. Please keep up the great work!!
Super insightful! Really intelligent fighting preparation.
Hey Gabriel! Thanks for sharing your skills, strategy and experience.
Just found your channel today and loved it ! Very well explained in every aspect ! Lot of respect for you sir !
Gabriel. I’ve been a fan of yours since the fight with Mosab Amrani. I don’t know if you member me but we have spoken a couple of times. I’m just so happy to see you continue to progress with the RUclips channel. Every time I see your videos they’re edited better, you’re choosing more catchy and vibrant thumbnails, and you deserve it brother. I hope you grow your channel and can use this as another revenue stream. Thank you for all the incredible technique and doing it with a humble and thoughtful Spirit
Thanks so much. I'm glad to hear you see improvement.
This is truly a masterpiece of analysis Thank you.
This was really enjoyable to watch. And learn about how to strategize for a fight.
Thank you. I'm glad you liked it.
Sick video. Thank you for the insight🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is a brilliant video Gabriel. It helps prepare the mindset
Awesome. I'm glad everyone seems to enjoy the mindset breakdown.
It's so important and not talked about enough.
This video is awesome, thanks for sharing bro
Can't imagine the sort of elation that comes with winning a fight against someone of that calibre. Amazing. Awesome channel
Fortunately when I beat him I didn't realize how popular he was.
I was more excited about proving myself to K-1 than I was beating him.
Awesome advise thank you man!
My man, you are the real deal. Thank you for this.
Gabrielle Varga..., Great job man 👍👍👍 in defeated Lerdsila
You should do videos about Youssef Boughanem and Tyfun Ozkan
Great vid! Very interesting.
This is gold.
You're such a genius!
Haha. Thanks.
Just a good game plan.
Found a gem, thank you sir.
Glad to have you here.
i love your channel! you are a legend! big fan from Malaysia!
Reallyyyy love this !!
thanks for the video and explanations
Thank you so much for this!
Thank you!!!
You need to come down to sunny naples Florida.
you are my great master you always encourage i remeber your advices when ifelt fear or weak
Love it. If I'm giving anyone some extra motivation with this channel I'm happy.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial you def are bro, such an inspiration and pleasure learning from you! thanks so much
Absolutely inspirational and informative channel! Makes me wanna train for sure haha. Keep it up! Love from Ontario!
That's what I like to hear.
Creating motivation is one of my goals.
You're a phenom!
Amazing content bro
Bro your the Man 😎👊🏼🙏🏼🤘🏼
Hi Gabe, perhpas I don´t comment often, almost never, but I´ve been a subscriber since a looong loong time, so I watch all ya videos, and this breakdown is awesome.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. And thanks for being a long time subscriber. Do you have any video topics you'd like to request?
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Perhaps you already talked about this, but my main concern when it comes to training, is having a balance between speed and power in my hands, and how can I improve them both in my routines, also how to not get lost when I do my shadowboxing. Have you got any strategy for those two topics? Thanks a lot for the content, and keep kicking ass, BTW Lerdsila is one of my fav MT fighters but you did amazing man. Greetings from Spain.
Love IT!
Just found the fight, and it looked like a good fight.
It wasn't a war but definitely a solid technical battle. When I was fighting I couldn't understand why the crowd was booing in round 3.
Put em' in deep water.
Swim against the current.
Patiently pursue with pressure.
Clamp down the jaws.
Now this is some good shit
I'll get some more breakdown videos out soon. It's fun looking back and reflecting on the gameplan.
this is the only fight i couldnt find on the internet :(
I'll get the whole thing up shortly.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial thank you sir
I watched it sometime back. Don't remember where though.
exelent video tks
You should do more collabs with the boys from modern martial artist
I should and will get on it.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Can't wait, your channel is great btw keep it up champ 💪
Yeah that's not a bad idea.
Finally, someone defeated Lerdzilla...The citizens of Tokyo thank you! He killed untold 1,000s.
GO ON THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE!
Would love to do that some day. Not sure how to go about it but I'll start exploring the avenues.
Did you make a deal with "the modern martal artist" channel or did he just remake this video with added clips?
Sick
You know, people tend to emphasize and exaggerate greatness and by that neglecting and do not see the other side: the weak points. I mean, Lerdsila has fabulous evasive defense but he is not able to use the opportunities after such missing attacks by countering hard and devastating. He just laughed and danced around (show). Your points in this video are really great, like to hear that. Every point is really great explained. But I still think this: if a fighter lend too much in analyzing the opponent and has a certain game plan, than it might prevent him to adapt when the game plan does not work. After all, a fight is not only determinate by us but for 50% also by our opponent. In my humble opinion, the greatest fighter is the one who can apply different game plans, according to the reaction of his opponent. When we are analyzing too much before hand, we may have certain expectations and that is not good. Like Bruce Lee in Game of Death when he was forced to change his fighting style DURING the fight. Your game plan A worked perfectly this fight, but I really wonder what you should do when it was not. For example IF Lerdsila can punish the attacker after a big miss. Back to your game plan: I really like the last point. It is for our self confidence.
When do we get to see you fight
Hey Gabriel, are you still doing the virtual private?
feel like I should be paying for videos like this
we are paying
💪🔥
I can't be the only one that thinks of star wars every time Thai fighters is said.
this guy is the one to impersonate the statement:
Fight smart, not hard.
I like to see a rematch
Why don't you breakdown the weight category he was fighting...
At times Lerdzilla was too busy trying to showboat in that fight... like he was trying to do Sanchai and was not actually fighting the way he could or should of. That is my truly honest opinion since I have watched this a few times before I seen your video. He messed himself up in that fight and you just did not play around with him. I think he did not take you seriously and got woken up very rudely.
He is definitely a show man and probably came in thinking I was just another North American fighter he would pick apart.
Mindset is so important. Often when I underestimate my opponent the whole fight seems so much harder than I was expecting.
Surprise surprise.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial With his show boating aside I think you were a big surprise for him regardless. One thing I notice about you is that you leave out the loud talk, the macho persona and instead just go for focus and discipline that speaks louder than words. I think you made him rethink a little bit of what he is to do in the ring for the future after that fight.
yes, I believe that it is often the fault of westerners themselves who set ourselves up for that mindset thai fighters get... where they are thinking we are weak... by us taking with us the mindset that we may not be enough for them.. screw that I say!!! Training hard as fk with a good dedicated mindset, with confidence in what we can achieve with putting in the grit to do it is what makes the most deadliest westerners I believe... you can only have respect to a certain point, but never to the point where you will give the fight to the other man.
Keep up the great videos man.
@@mmareviewer.2372 He definitely got pretty focus over the past 5-6 years and has been getting some good wins.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Yea, he is an old warrior at 39!! a species of mayweather/pacman this one... and fighting in ONE where there is lots of lethal fighters right now.
It's nice to see Eminem back again.
Epic
What made you get into fighting when you were a kid. For instance did you ever get in a schoolyard brawl then decide “I’m not loosing again”?
How expensive is a private? It's ok if you don't want to disclose it in public.
One on one with a world champion is a good investment for any fighter.
$95 for training package which includes 60 minutes together breaking down your technique, accessing your strengths and weaknesses, speaking about anything else that interest you such as game planning, fight mindset, weight loss, etc.
$130 for full package which includes everything above plus before the session I will spend 30 minutes watching your fight and/or training footage and create suggestions and notes for you.
@@m6smitten This fighter just bought very expensive judo mats and gotta set priorities. But Im really fucking tempted man.
@@GabrielVargaOfficial Thanks! It's too bad its only temporarily availiable. I missed out on my first fight bc of covid and I dont know when I get the chance again. If the offer is still up then I'll gladly take it
@@eliasschneeberger1337 Mats are f*@king expensive. I feel ya.
Imagine Ledrsila watching this🖥
"I will get u next time"
Kudus to anyone who can best Lerdsilla.
With respect, I have a question for you, did you fight Muay Thai fighter with the Muay Thai Rules, or you fight the Kick Boxing Rules? There's Big Deference, I Believe you Know that Already, thank you.
lmao this sounds like a boss tutorial
11:29 here's a video of the fight with the original TV commentary:
ruclips.net/video/eTUAyikPAUA/видео.html
Man this brought tears to my eyes. Seeing your discipline, skill and determination with such great sportmanship as well. I don't do any fighting at all, but your very intelligent advices are still very helpful to me, for general life as well, I think. And very motivating and inspiring for sure. Thanks for all your hard work and helping other fighters as well, to get to their best! Please keep up your great personality, humility and dedication and don't let anyone dissuade you. I believe these virtues are worth much more than money, fame and whatnot. And if you don't get enough recognition for it in the world, you sure will in heaven I believe. I wish you all the best, Varga!
I love every thing you've said. But spinning fist, for me, is something not manly and not to be proud of. If I were to be knocked down by a kick, knee or elbow I wouldn't feel sorry about it, but it wouldn't be acceptable for me to be defeated by spinning fist.
Is bellator kickboxing still alive ?
I'm actually hoping to find out more about that early next year.
I'm happy doing MMA as well but definitely want to get back to kickboxing.
It's the sport I'm best at and really love.
More news over the next month or two.
Like the explanation, but TOO LITTLE of highlights. Need a little balance of both, unless you have problems with proprietary rights.
Not trying to shit on your accomplishment, but do you think that size played a part in your victory? He’s a 125er and you’re a 135er. He honestly probably cut from 135 and youre cutting from what 155-60?
For that fight I cut from 150lbs but I think we fought at 140bs.
He would have cut no weight but did weigh in at the limit.
But yes. He should be a weight class below me so I certainly had a size advantage.
Very nice job! I KNOW quality content when I see it, I am sure you just need a little more promotion for this channel to explode! There are other's with hundreds of thousands subscribers but if I am to compare them with this channel, it's like comparing McDonald's with a Five Star Restaurant :)
Thank you, you are an amazing guy.
Wow, thank you!
I'll keep trucking along with the content and hopefully it explodes one day.
How the hell did I get unsubbed from this channel?! 😢 Damn RUclips
Waste it to get a lot of money You can see that it's a sting that doesn't look really serious
Thai fighter's are in a height disadvantage.
To be fair, you are much bigger than him though. You are like Semi Schilt in that weight class.
You won by score , knocked him down once and he QUICKLY recovered. You didnt really beat him like what the title said lol, you won by score, thats all. Good fight nonetheless.
If there were no videos of him, he would whip your @## 100 out of 100 times.
But you are lucky that there are videos, so you did your prep, but just think, if Lardsila prepped for you :)
a
Chef's kiss🤌🏻. Won the bout before it even started.
