Best Boxing Gloves for Sparring?

Hey all, so ive been looking around for some gloves that are gonna be good for sparring. I've got a nice pair of bag gloves, but the only 16oz I have are everlast and they are brutal for my partner.

I'm looking for a pair that I can spar pretty hard with. I got heavy hands and sometimes pop my partner pretty good so I need something that will make it so we can keep sparring.

Thanks in advance.

I use my Victory Athletics gloves for sparring. They are available from Golden Gear. They are also having a blow out sale and there are a couple other choices for one heck of a price.

For the price you can hardly beat the Ringside IMF's. 2 1/2 inches of protection over the knuckles. The older models are about $80. The new ones about $100. The only problem I had with the older model was dry time. They take a while to dry, often times days.

Probably around $80 or so. and i really prefer velcro sparring gloves as opposed to lace ups.

+1 for the Ringside IMF.

The Combat sports IMF gloves look awesome in blue/white as well.
