Need suggestion

the suggestion is to go to the Gear & Equipment sub-forum (under training) and to read through some threads before posting. Do some research through there and I'm sure you'll find plenty of suggestions.

Don't use latex doctors gloves

It depends on your budget, and if you're a newbie, (which sounds like you are, otherwise you wouldn't be asking a question like that, and in the wrong fucking forum lol), no reason to buy an expensive pair of 16 Oz gloves at the moment. If you're in Canada, 'Sport Chek' carries the Ringside brand, and those gloves are pretty good.

lol I realize that sounded a bit dickish. I am mainly active in those forums - it's just that it seems that every day someone posts the exact same thread and usually the same answers are given every time with a few modifications here and there. There are just a lot of repeat threads. There's a ton of great info there

I was only messing, there are some people in here who box enough to tell you what to do but that forum is the place to go.

Lol.

are you another RDX bot? stay away from that trash, no matter how much your beloved Bisping endorses them.

 

[makedansure]

What a stupid company. Hey RDX, next time you make another account to write stupid comments on a bunch of random threads and then try to lead in about your stupid brand, don't write about it in your "about me".

Can we please auto-ban these stupid RDX accounts when they pop up?

They look nice, are well made but the Padding is horrible. They are fckin enormous as well, I could probably get 2 hands in one glove. I've bought lots of different mskes of gloves over the years and these are pretty much useless.

If your're new and need an all purpose glove I generally use twins as they are robust, break in nicely and inexpensive. I can pick up on pair for about £30. They are rather big compared to most boxing glove because the padding distribution is mainly for musy Thai. The 16s can be used for bag, pad and sparring though I do use better quality gloves for sparring which are more specific to boxing

16 oz Everlast Gloves from Walmart are a great start. 16 oz Hayabusa gloves from sport chek I prefer, but they cost a bit more. I certainly won't recommend the brands like Grant since I've never used them. I couldn't justifty having better gloves than the pro fighters at my gym, it just didn't feel right lol

Hayabusa is the best .

I had some hayabusa tokushu 16s for sparring and they are some of the best gloves I've ever had. Wrist support and comfort were exceptional. Decent price as well, I think I got them for about £80

Yeah, Hayabusa are real nice ones. Never been a fan of the Everlast ones. I do like Sting and use them for most of my daily training, they're a good, cheap, yet high quality glove but I think these are only sold in australia...?

I got a pair about 170$$..still good today after 4 years of solid abuse... great weight balance makes accuracy better.

You aren't meant just to masturbate over pictures of Pulev with them, just a heads up.

I'm definitely converted and will buy another pair soon. My tokushus have only lasted about 9 months because I've used them on the heavy bag as well and I've got flat spots. I've got other gloves I should be using for bag/pad work but they are so damn comfortable I don't want to take them off. I've bought varuous gloves over the last 20 years and I'd have to say they are the best value by a long way.

 

[Reyesnuthugr]

In Gear & Equipment forum, the consensus is (have this thread topic constantly)--


Best: Winning (from Japan), also costs around $200/pair. Best gloves you can get, period.


Best Value for those on a budget: KO Fightgear, by a mile [$40]

-------

Other than that, there are several ~$80-$100 gloves that are pretty good but not as good as Winning. Head over to G&E forum to hear about those.
