Gladiator Pro or Elite for Muaythai

although i've heard the elites are uncomfortable compared to the pros in terms of size/bulk

I wanna know if it is worth the extra to get the Elite.
Though i much prefer my mouth guards comfortable cause I compete.

Cheers

One of the gladiator reps mentioned that the pro is definitely adequate for striking. I have a pro for boxing, and it is absolutely superb for the price. Can't recommend it enough.

There is only about $5 difference between the two.

For boxing, I love my Gladiator Pro.

get the pro. if you feel like you needed added protection (witch I think you won't) get the elite 50% off.

If I'm not mistaken Eddie Alavrez uses the Pro. So if it's good enough for a high level mma fighter, I'm sure it'll be good enough for a local level(?) mt fighter.

I got it on my first mouthguard that my dog chewed up. It definitely made in uncomfortable to wear and won't be getting it on my next guard.

I guess if you're thinking of getting Power Grip

Might aswell go for the Elites right?
