[@georgealexandrescu5369]

I use 16 all around. They are havier and have more protection. On the other hand, getting used with the heavier ones, it'll be easier when you'll use 10s or 12. But there is also a downside in the fact that they are slowing you down at the beginning and it's harder to keep your hands up

[@goliath95350]

Plus the fact that u dont defend the same way with 16 oz. I have 18oz for the "sangoku effect" as u describe. And u cant defend the same way with smaller gloves. Great to improve shoulder resistance but poor in simulating a fight :/

[@christiandickson4553]

[@kevinyoung947]

I have 14s usually, same as 12 great in between weight

[@aapeliholtta1197]

I only have one pair of boxing gloves, I have 16 ounces. I haven't had a fight yet, so can't comment on that part, but can definitely tell that the endurance of my shoulder and arm muscles has increased significantly especially in sparring, over the year I have been training. I compensate the heavyness with shadow boxing, not sure if it actually works, but atleast it's a good practis´ce anyways

[@Xxmeca421xX]

My uncle is a fighter but moved away so I can't get lessons like when I was young unfortunately. I challenge him to a fight when I was 18 and thought I was tough. I believe it was 16oz that hit me before I was unconscious.

[@PrecisionBoxing]

For everybody out there whining and crying about 14oz gloves...I didn't have a pair to demonstrate for the video, so I didn't include them. I have used 14oz in the past. They make a great light sparring glove in case you need just a bit more hand speed, and they make a great heavier bag glove to develop endurance. An exact blend of a 12oz and 16oz.

@@djdenivk, I haven't been boxing for long but if your using wraps and gloves and punch correctly you should be fine. If you feel like there too big then I'd go maybe 12oz or 10oz depending on your age.

You should incorporate 3-4 rounds pr week of sparring. Of course No head contact but contact/points for tap on, front leg, shoulders and stomach. The cardio is priceless even for 70+ year.

[@kirodezno12]

Another great video! In my experience, I think that the 12oz are the best all around gloves also, they are a great middle ground for bag work and sparring preparation. Also, looking sharp on those combinations, coach!

[@MishaElRusito]

02:05 These gloves are the worst, no real protection but they give you a false feeling of protection, plus no wrist support. My favorites are 12-16 regular sparring/training gloves with great wrist support because on the beg it's easy to twist your wrist or get injured. Ps the 10oz are great for feeling the speed.

[@walter1893]

They are the best. It teaches better technique and strengthens forearms, grip strength and knuckles better. Not the best to use on a really hard or really heavy bag though unless you're used to it and have good technique.

In my heavy bag workouts, I now alternate between 16s and 12s, and then shadow box with wrist wraps alone just to feel out my body and notice the posture differences.

[@paulmurphy7476]

My old trainer would only allow bag gloves to be used for bag and pad work, 16oz were used for sparring and skills/partner drills, he said if you used sparring gloves regularly on the bags it would lessen the padding on the gloves and lead to unfair sparring.

As I am not planning on competing and box primarily for conditioning, it is 16oz for me. Always.

[@NG-jy7zg]

Hi 👋 I’m not planning to compete either, I mainly want gloves for conditioning. But I also just want to know techniques and other stuff in boxing. Maybe I’ll fight in the future, I’m not sure. Do you think I should get the 12/16? I’m only starting out. Asking u assuming that you know about this stuff

[@matthewpulickottil6831]

@@NG-jy7zg i have been going to boxing/mma gyms on and off for the last 15 years. Wearing a heavier gloves definitely slows down your handspeed. It might also result bad technique like dropping your hands (due to the weight of the gloves) and these might be harder to fix if not corrected early. That said, if you practice primarily with heavier gloves, you will feel your hands flying when you put lighter ones on. If your primary aim is conditioning, go for 14-16 oz and these will improve endurance of your shoulders and protect your hands better. If you are unsure, you cannot go wrong with a 12oz. For sparring, your trainer might insist on you wearing 16oz to protect your hands your partner. If you have both, use 12oz gloves on the bag and mitt work and 16 oz for sparring. Most importantly, buy quality hand wraps and learn to wrap your hands well and to position your knuckles at impact. Your hands will thank you later.

[@PunchProfessor]

Hello JT with all gloves considered, and knowing there is a difference between them, lets not forget all HEAVY BAGS are not the same... Todays Heavy Bags come from the factory, packed very heavy/hard. In the Old School most bags were not as hard as today's equipment .. In the Days Gone By it was common to see a trainer repack a bag after time had caused the stuffing to settle at the bottom. The Bag became very hard at the bottom, and smart trainers would take the bag apart and repack it ... It has been many many years since I have seen anyone repack a bag ! Today's Bags are typically so hard that when I get a New Bag, the very first thing I do after taking it out of the box is I repack it ...I prefer to pack a heavy bag so that it gives.. I want my heavy bag to fold, and crease when hit / When the hand sinks in a little bit, I like that . In the Old School, most all trainers would stop you from hitting the bag with sparring gloves ! Accuracy and Precision is so important... The bags were not as hard as a concrete pillar, as most Bags today.. So there was no need to look for more hand protection, a good wrap was sufficient .. Thought I would add a 2 cents comment to your Excellent VIDEO * * * * * 5 Stars ! P.S. You look like you are in fighting shape ! Sincerely Paulie D'

[@kevinmahon7848]

You are suppose to hit the heavybag with old fashioned Bag Gloves with hands wrapped. Hitting the Bag with 10 12 14 or 16 oz. Gloves is like wearing ankle weights You fell faster but Your not. With Big Gloves You lose precision and become an ArmPuncher. You have to learn Your tecqnique before You put unnessacery weight on Your Arms.

[@gerardomartinezgallardo2981]

I agree with all and I think more people who are new should be hearing this to know what to expect. -At least i would have like to know when i first started. I use 4oz (In Mexico they are called "Guanteletas") for accuracy in the heavy bag and double end. Then 10oz (laces) for speed and hitting "correctly" and solid, also great for mitt work. And 16oz (lace & velcro) for general use and sparring. I use 16oz 85%-90% of the time and every now and then i mix it up with the lighter ones. In most gyms i´ve found a lot of people don't have a clue on glove size-weight-use matters, and use 16oz as a general rule. Some even think is "wrong" to use lighter ones. This was a great informational video for everyone and try what works for you without getting hurt.

[@PrecisionBoxing]

Thank you, great comment!

[@konpoy]

Good video! I have been training with dif size glove over the years. Right now use hayabusa t3 (great wrist support with double loop and great surface quality) 12oz with gel pads inside for more protection so they end up being 14oz. Since I am a lefty boxing in orthodox stance to develop my home run off the back I sometimes use 18-20oz on my right to speed it up. For speed development I use 18-20oz for two rounds just touching the bag but being almost dead at the end of each round. For power - 12-14oz all out combos and air intake in between. Sparring: 16-18oz (6'7", 190lbs). Prefer to train speed separately from power. SPEED IS FINE - POWER IS FINAL!!! But rather have speed than power. LOVE DOUBLE END BAG WORK!!!! since most of the time I train myself - unfortunately no mitts for me. Question for you: do you ever use 20oz (bag, sparring, double end, mitts)? What is your favorite brand? Your favorite weight distribution? Have you ever used British Fortress pro hand wraps? Thanks for the great video! Cheers

16oz more padding more protection. The 10oz gloves are for actual fights. Plus use hand wraps and learn how to put it correctly on your hands. That's the key.

[@rightdubz]

I like 12oz gloves for bag work. But ultimately, I think the size that works best for you also depends on the brand of gloves. I use 12oz Casanovas for bag, but thinking of getting a different 16oz for sparring

I'm 14 and using 18oz gloves should I change it?

[@tommy57958]

Yeah dude use a lower oz glove probably 12 oz

[@JackassHill]

I use 12oz Evershield's. One thing I do a lot of, is I occasionally go about half to three quarters speed with just wraps, for the very reason you mentioned. Working on proper form. While I'm hitting the bag with the 12s, I always take a round during the workout, and a couple rounds before I start going hard to work on form. I'll usually work that technique/form round in after at least 5 rounds, because I try to get the muscle memory down for throwing correct punches while tired. When I first started hitting the heavy bag, I wouldn't do this, and would suffer minor injuries from throwing punches incorrectly while tired. I'm to the point now where my punches are more consistent, and I rarely get pain during my workouts. Of course, this doesn't account for shortening hooks for speed, or throwing up jabs, etc. Punches you modify on purpose.

thing i don't get is if you your sparing why are you wearing heavier gloves compared to an actual fight wouldn't you want to condition through sparing and in sparing aren't you hold back and not going all out as you would in a real fight.

[@PrecisionBoxing]

It's mostly to protect your sparring partner's face and ribs. Being injury free is more important. If you are injured or KO'd during sparring you can't fight. But yes you are right, it can throw you off to suddenly wear lighter gloves for the fight. Try to spend some rounds on the bag using 10oz to get used to the feel of the fight.

18-20oz for super heavy weights?

[@jaysboxingchannel6233]

my own conclusion that I've come to based on years of training is that the size of glove you use depends on which bag youre hitting. For example if youre hitting the 175-200lb bag you shoul use bag mitts,8,10 or 12 oz gloves to really get an understanding of how to turn your knuckles over when throwing punches,condition your hands and build your conditioning. If youre hitting a 100-135lb bag you should use 14-16 oz gloves to do drills on the heavy bag, build your muscular endurance in the arms by hitting the bag in them as many rounds as you can and of course sparring.

[@DIYTutorialGuy]

[@Andrew-qh2ub]

@@boomerak4774 usually for 12oz gloves are lighter and an all rounder glove which is good. 12oz are my personal favorite to be honest.

[@TheSeanxy]

@@Andrew-qh2ub do you think 10oz is too little for heavy bag/pad work?

Use old fashioned Bag Gloves. Bigger gloves wear Your arms down and You become a arm puncher.

Best "boxing gloves" vídeo i've ever seen. it can't be explained better

[@cretin1399]

I ordered myself some 16 oz gloves recently, and received 10s. Thanks for letting me know that 10s are ok. Appreciate you.

[@darrelllopes5013]

I think a important consideration would be someone size and weight. I'm 6'2 250lbs and always hit the bag with 16's and spar with 16's (muaythai) really i should be wearing 18s or 20s if sparred harder like boxers do.

[@CCJ879]

Have awlays wanted to try 10-12s. However, isn't the gloves you choose based on your weight? Say heavier people would have to go for 16s, while lighter people can opt for smaller sized ones.

[@PrecisionBoxing]

yes in some cases that's right

[@CCJ879]

@@PrecisionBoxing Thanks for the reply. I'm a heavier dude, 230lbs. But my arms get so tired when I go on the bag for an hour with my hayabusa t3 16s. I typically do 2-minute rounds, with 2-3 minutes of rest in between. Should I consider going to say 12s or 14s? Would that help with my ability to throw faster punches and not get tired so easily?

I'm an older gentleman and use the bags as part of my keep fit routine I do them after my weights. I usually use bag mitts. Sometimes my hands hurt afterwards. Shall I use 14 or 16 oz gloves instead. I'm a heavy person as well

[@happykal11]

2:02 I never made that connection. 🤔

[@lisar3006]

I have that same heavy bag it is the best bag I ever owned. You are correct about using a good glove and hand wraps once you injure your hands you will have problems with them for good. My pro has had his hands broken three time it has plagued him his entire career.

[@kalimullahqazizada7787]

Bro can u tell me what’s the weight of the bag??

[@lisar3006]

@@kalimullahqazizada7787 I think it is 150 pounds. I use it to train my pro fighter and countless kids who came thru the gym. It is my only bag that didn't fall apart after a few years.

[@kalimullahqazizada7787]

@@lisar3006 thanks for replying I have a 3 feet punching bag and I have filled it with 70% sawdust and 30% clothes it is about 60lbs but it is so hard to punch like the hands get bruises. I was asking what to do to soften the bag but at the same time retain the weight?? Thank you

[@lalithrockz]

@@kalimullahqazizada7787 some sandbags in the center of your bag while you were filling them. Don't get carried away and add too many. My bag was soft but very heavy the stitches gave out.

[@carlhowitzer9768]

I hurt my wrist on the heavybag using 10oz gloves (using double wraps) 16oz is fine with double wraps (250 pounds hw)

[@theentrepreneur2472]

First of all, beard looks good bro..so I work the heavy bag with venum elite 12oz..I do feel the bad impact when I land a wrong technique punch...but recently I always feel strain or the impact in my left biceps when I throw the left hook ..should I go for16 oz or it's my technique?!

[@PrecisionBoxing]

Go with a lighter glove or avoid hooks for awhile. Massage your biceps. It took me 5-6 months to recover from a pulled bicep.

[@theentrepreneur2472]

@@PrecisionBoxing excellent, another Q if you dont mind..I do resistance training 5 days a week, and heavy bag after my weights session every other day, do you think its the reason, like sometimes I workout biceps/triceps then at the end I go for 20 mintues heavy bag routine. Should I split them or it's fine to do heavy bag after your resistance training session?

[@strikeoneboxing4384]

Ive been training with 16s for a good while now but im an amateur. I just bought 12 oz for bag work nd i found that 16s screwed up my biomechanics the 12 is so light i dont know how to generate power anymore cs i was loading with the 16s i really felt like i dont know how to punch or box. Just my experience yours might differ...

[@universal_wisdom3416]

Im guessing this is going to end with something along the lines of, “it depends on your weight class”? Edit: I’m happy to be wrong

[@motivationandtravelchannel4575]

Really good review thanks for posting

[@aiyahuntacheimumbi236]

I had to train Bare Handed for a long time because my hands were so long that my finger knuckles would be connecting in most gloves. It took some time and patience to develop the correct timing to keep each joint stable and avoid scraping my knuckles, but through consistency and careful repetition I can and do now spend all day everyday throwing full speed and power punches to any part of the bag without gloves or wraps or fear or injury. Even to the hard bottom of the bag. I recently found a pair of 16oz FTG2's at a second hand store, so I can finally spar! Hope it translates to gloves lol Going to take some time with my coach getting used to them. He's had me training with metal egg shaped hand weights to prepare for the bigger gloves.

[@nacmopa]

Hayabusa T3 14 OZ - best I ever used :).

[@RikthDcruze]

I always used my 12oz gloves in fights. Now using my custom made 10oz and 8t feels so much better

[@HungHogan]

Hey Coach, hope all is well, I was wanting to hear your take on the new technology in padding in gloves, fx the ones Trevor Witman has designed... The padding is a new technology of foam that absorbs the blow to protect the hands, he does a great preview of them with Joe Rogan, but was wanting to hear your take on the technology being used in boxing gloves...? Thanks, have a great one!

[@TheLesso111]

Im a heavyweight, 230lbs. I use 18oz cletos. I also use gel padded wraps. I put a lot of power down on the bags.

[@xrayfish2020]

What about 14oz which I use?

[@joeygonzo]

they're good if you are 154 or under

[@tipou900]

I would recommand 14 oz if you dont want your hands to hurt after a good training.

[@jonasmemoracion5578]

Finally someone did it! This helped alot and thank you!

[@TigerMeadows]

I use size 14 oz for the heavy bag. I also use wraps, 3,5 meter longs, they could be a little longer maybe. I sometimes wrap some extra fabric to protect my knuckles, I find that with hard punches, without the little extra, the knuckles tend to be sore afterwards and I prefer not to get much or any soreness. Not sure if accumulated hard striking could have a negative effect on the knuckles, some have said that it might in the very long run lead to some arthritis but not sure. Overall I think 14 oz is the best for me for about 0,5 hour - 1 hour of high intensity on the heavy bag and some low intensity to warm up and cool down added. I haven't really used 10 oz or 16 oz that much, 10 oz might be fun just for the feeling, I haven't sparred yet.
