Cleto Reyes 14 Vs. 12 Oz.

[mixedmajik]

I think thats the third time in this thread that you've mentioned that GHVA which is why I said what I said jak. Everybody here is calm...we're trying to help so when saying the same thing 3 times doesn't seem to be enough that's what gets confusing. No one is angry, albeit some may be confused at what you are still looking for us to answer.

12oz is fine for pads....pads are about technique and speed...you don't need heavy gloves for them. Many even use 10oz for pads. 16oz for sparring, 14 an exception if it is Winning AND your coach is fine with it...which i already said.

Congratz on the green belt golden! And really...after we just settled the matter you had to go there and restart it up again >:]

Now that I think of it...18oz might not be a bad choice

Hmmm...I know R2C has a 34 oz glove available...Probably not enough protection so I'd recommend double handwrapping and squeezing on 2 or 3 pairs of ng-2's over top of that to punch with utmost protection and at optimal speed

For pad work I would suggest 12oz or better yet Safetec fight gloves. Pads are for speed. Reyes always weigh heavy. For instance my Ringside Reyes in 12oz were actually 14.7. I always wondered why I got tired using them instead of my winnings if they were the same weight. That is until I weighed em at staples. Winnings are within .1 ounce I think.

WTF? 14.7 for 12 ounce gloves. What would the 16 oz extra padding weigh?

Ironically whatever you can imagine.
I used to have a pair of extra padded 16 oz. One weighed 15 oz., the other 18 oz. lol

Well the custom ones I ordered were right on a pound and thats what I ordered em to be. So if you get Reyes unless youre getting fight gloves Id have em weighed or go custom.
