ThanksBeautiful...

Pretty sure these are yours TB?
The profile is custom to your hand, so thin profile. The padding is custom, too. I got layered orthopedic, and it holds up on the heavy bag better than Winning, which have flattened out but still protect my hands great--not sparring partners' faces, though. However, my Topboxers are still fluffy, and sparring partners don't mind when I use them.for those who have used these gloves, anyone know how thick the padding is? are they really bulky like ringside IMF or do they have a thin profile?
also, how do they hold up to heavy bag work? sparring gloves generally "go flat" if you use them on the heavy bag because they arent meant to take all those hits.

Good eyes!!!
Check out page 12 here and the http://www.iboxcustomise.com/about-ibox/ website the same "Del Boy" gloves are in both!
The ibox customise team are flooding the UK pro scene with "sponsorships" and free gear to fighters/coaches, would hope that Muhammad also gets some credit and recognition from this instead of just the middlemen
Almost guarantee you that Mo isn't allowed to comment on this. Usually, manufacturers and distributors have agreements, a lot of times "vows of silence" to protect the brand. No one knows or has ever commented on Grant's relationships with the actual shops in Mexico, and they surely are not looking to break the silence. I know that Grant has used several US bag makers for their heavy bags, but they are paid a hefty sum not to disclose their relationships, even after the termination of the relationship.
That's why I posted, because we know that Mo receives credit for his work.
here are some unique gloves(coach spar) with extra long cuff , the cuff was long enough to not to fit in my post bed machine so had to put the final stitches with hand needle
hope you guys like it
p.s
these are although quite big but it was challenge to make them only 14 oz
had to put some high tech ultra light eva into it without compromising the protection , padding was made special for this one as well.
Yes this is the only modle i am making atm.Are these the only catch and release gloves you've made?

thats a trade secret.How do you make the wrist support rigid and stiff so you can't bend your wrist?
i honestly have not hand on experience with the safetechs , so i can,t actually exactly compare them to with.This is beautiful and intriguing. I wonder how they compare to the safetecs.
lol , the wrist support would not be a problem even in the 10 oz version i have made the wrist support so solid that you can not bend your hand in those too , the origenals did,nt have any wrist support as the palm side had thin foam kind of padding in it...but again the palm padding is also customizable so one can still chose soft(medium) or rigid(high) or low wrist supportI'm wondering that as well. The Reyes Safetec fight gloves have virtually no wrist support, and the padding is a soft density IMF type.
I also have a pair of the regular Reyes fight gloves, and there is definitely some wrist support in those.
I wonder if TopBoxer11 is gonna keep this as a template... maybe name it TB-SMFG... (Top Boxer Safety Mexican Fight Gloves). lol. Perhaps a horsehair version named TB-HMFG (Top Boxer Horsehair Mexican Fight Gloves).
my appologies for such a delay i will get back to you tonight for sure.Hi Muhammad, I sent you a PM regarding my interest in a Custom Gi. Please check. Thanks!
