Looking for good MMA head gear.

Hey guys what's up. I've owned a few pairs of head gear and quite frankly they are not
very good. They either spin or they do no allow for a good view of your opponent. So it's impossible to see if your trying to watch for leg kicks out of your peripheral vision. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks.

I use headgear from KO Fightgear and love it.

Armorfit is light and doesn't move at all but doesn't absorb as much as say the rival d3o or winnings but overall very good headgear.

I do Muay Thai and I like using a FG5000 from Winning. As long as I'm keeping my chin down properly I have no issues with kicks. I also have a Fg2900, also from winning, that works well too. Neither spin when on properly and use a clip for the chin strap-something I find more secure and comfortable compared to hook and loops

If you look at it, it protects the chin/cheeks well, but doesn't have the nose protection as the FG5000. I use it to condition myself to take face shots better and to have better sight in watching front kicks.
