Finally some love to lanky fighters, it's so rare to find strategies for the taller fighter in youtube

It’s good to know both styles. Every week during sparring I’m either the long/tall fighter or the shorter fighter. Personally enjoy the range finding “intelligent left” long style.

As a high school fighter standing at 193 cm tall and 77 kg, I always find it nice that I started my combat sports with wrestling in junior high and continue it in highs school. After being taught how to use my extra long limbs for striking, it's always nice to be able to go back to grappling if an opponent gets too close

People don’t talk about the strengths with a lanky build in grappling as well. Stockier guys have more power but longer guys have more leverage

Thank you. So many coaches will allude to the advantages of being a taller fighter but only advise the shorter fighter on how to deal

That's because training to fight shorter people is viewed as bullying, even though being tall means most everyone is shorter than you and fit people who are shorter than you have more muscle at the same weight.

Everybody favours the perceived underdog "short guy". It's funny, because a guy named Tyson proved that a short guy can totally bully tall guys when more skilled

Short and lean

Keeping your opponent at bay and picking him apart from a pretty safe distance is a great fighting technique for a tall and lean fighter to utilize.

The best body type for a fighter! Tall, long, and lean. If they mastered fighting walking backward, THE snap jab, and have just an ok inner game. The shorter fighter will walk through hell.

I’m 6’2” 170lbs and that thumbnail just made me realize why Izzy and Suga are my two favorite active fighters. Tall and skinny is the new race, we will prevail!

Great video! The videos where you really dig into the details (like this one) are my favorites. And I’ve always wanted to tell you this: even though you lost the Van Roosmalen fight, you showed the heart of a lion during it. The courage it took to stay in there as long as you did against that gorilla was just off the charts. No one could ever question your heart after that war.

Thanks. I'm editing a video on that fight right now. He was a tank.

The correct answer if you are a tall and lean guy is to simply show up to beginner classes and let your ego flourish. Maybe being taller isn't as insurmountable an advantage between two skilled opponents with a height difference, but amongst beginners it makes you nearly bulletproof.

Reach is definitely an adavantage. I find it funny that some people think the clinch favors the tall man. I guess in some instances it does favour the knees of a tall man but a good clincher can just as easily neutralize a tall mans clinch and dump him easier.

Been waiting for this since I watched the other Physique videos. Thank you for everything you do!

Love all your stuff. Thank you for taking the time to educate.

Gabriel thank you so much every single one of your videos is a gem! Getting this condensed wisdom of such an amazing champ is so great, I am looking forward so much to practicing my long guard in MT sparring today! Thank you!

Love this series gives you insight to what other fighters are going to try do

Gabriel, this channel is helping me a lot, but I think this video is where I learned the most. Keep up the good work!

This is the video my lanky ass has been waiting for, Thanks Gabriel!

Man, your videos are freaking Diamonds.

soooooo awesome! thanks Gabriel.

Great advice in this video. Top notch!!

Love everything your saying and as a tall fighter I've noticed a lot of this myself in my training and studying.

FINALLY a video on that!!! It’s always shorter vs taller

Top notch content as always. Tips for taller thinner fighters is definitely an under discussed subject in martial arts.

Thanks Gabriel, I got dazed by a shorter fighter in sparring and since then I’ve been utilizing your techniques to figure out what is the best way to compete. This video is so helpful.

Great points! Many trainers disregard the physical attributes of their fighters.

Finally someone that actually breaks down some good long range techniques n tips for us taller fighters! Man have i been waiting...

There's not alot of videos of what to do as a taller fighter! It's all tailored to the small guys, so thank you!

As a tall/lean fighter, this is one of my favorite videos you’ve made

This is pure gold! Like how Gabriel acknowledges some of his mistakes and giving us all these tips

Great video! I always seemed to get opponents much taller than me. I had one of my fighters actually fight you, and you were definitely at a height disadvantage.

Thank you... I'm not just speaking on your skill in the ring when I say this... your a good fighter! I mean that in so many ways including 'your a good person'.

Thank you Gabriel. This is advice I wish I had gotten years ago.

Thanks Gabriel, As I am transitionning to Kick boxing, exactly what I need

Beautiful, Gabriel. Fantastic advice. I've built my whole game around these principles (6'3, 160lb K1 fighter). I still need to get better on the inside!!

He literally just made it such a worth watching fulll premium tutorial!

I'm neither tall nor lean, but I love your videos! Keep up the great work Gabriel :)

Thank you for such a good video with such good advice!!!

I will remember this. Thank you.

Very validating video! Feel like most videos are for shorter fighters, or put all their focus on staying out of range. Nice to see emphasis on fighting in the pocket when that shorter fighter does occasionally find their way into range. (Now to work on that tight guard and counter-punching...)

Great video, thank you!

Awesome tips all around

Thanks for the video!

Thank youuuu bro, I'm 6'3 and long time fan and I was praying you would make this vid before my kickboxing and mma fights🙏🏿❤ keep spreading the knowledge and being a true martial artist.💯🤝🏿

Thank you! Golden advice for the lanky

This is great stuff thank you

Class video!

Great video and tips. This is definitely me. 6'1", 160 lbs. I've been following all of your tips. I can't remember the boxer right now, but I remember watching a tall boxer with wicked hooks. His shorter opponent kept trying to close the distance, but got punished with hooks every time. It turned into a one sided fight, even though according to resumes it should have been a pretty even match. Thanks! I would love to see more on creating angles as a taller fighter. I have a good gas tank and quickness, but trouble figuring out the footwork for creating angles in my combinations.

great info !

Thanks so much for this. I've been using quite a lot of these techniques already but have just started working on that Thai sidekick. And my inside game? It needs work but I'll get it eventually.

This is such a great video idea

As a 1,87cm for 76kg, definitely helpful ! Thanks

Too many nowadays throw a readable, predictable teep. Then get used to bouncing that leg. bounce, throw, bounce, feint, punch, teep, bounce, etc. All the while you should shift and pivot slightly so as to not be a stationary target.
