Oh ok so you would want hard for the bag and soft for sparring so basically for bag work and such a light oz zepol like 10 would be bad because its soft...? Interesting...
It's a matter of preference.
On both ends of the spectrum (too soft or too dense) you will have the result of something hard making contact with your sparring partner. It will either be your knuckles when it is too soft, or the dense padding when it is too hard.
Personally I prefer sparring gloves to be softer, not so soft that my knuckles will break through but just soft enough so I can throw harder without feeling bad.
For bag and mitt work, I prefer more dense padding.
