What size boxing gloves are the best? 🥊

Here I compared bigger to smaller gloves, going from 16 ounces to 8... hope you enjoyed this comparison / review! #shorts #boxinggloves #boxing

[@aetheryuu]

As a lightweight I use 16 oz for sparring and bag, and 10 oz for official fights. 16oz is really good to build up strength and speed. I totally recommend practicing with them

[@DreamHabits_]

I’m 130 currently I’m using 14oz for everything but I’m going to switch to 24 oz just for training soon

[@armplanet7524]

​@@DreamHabits_ 24???

[@DreamHabits_]

@@armplanet7524 yeah I got the hit n move 1.5 gloves just for training

[@aetheryuu]

@@DreamHabits_ I personally don't recommend jumping to a 24oz right away. You might get injured. Go for the 16oz for the first 3 months, then when you change to the 24oz.

[@perrymccallum8931]

I use 10 oz currently.But the 16 for training makes more sense.I carry 2 pair of 10oz in the cargo space of my car.On rare occasion I have co-worker confrontations on the construction job site.I intervene and supply them with gloves for after work hours to settle their disputes in a safer environment lol.

[@generalkhalid1192]

I got 18 oz by mistake, i asked for 16, i am a big dude and it still feels perfect

[@MaxJamesboxing]

hey that works out for the better, the smaller gloves finna be dangerous for you my man

[@Arciniega5k5]

[@gupagg]

I spar with the 16 but in normal training I use the 12 oz. The best in my opinion for those who don't train to compete professionally.

[@alp_mez8598]

16oz for sparring and 10oz or 12oz for bag and official fights. Heavier gloves protect the wrist better too.

[@MaxJamesboxing]

[@user89011egrh]

8oz helped with conditioning my knuckles and throwing correct punches. Noticed that grip strength is increased too

[@MaxJamesboxing]

for sure bro that will definitely condition those hands, not much padding in those 8 oz

[@Arturbeterbievs]

It depends, i used 8oz for 3 days on heavy bag and injered my wrist

[@thegunslinger-rh2zg]

gotta be careful tho

[@Ransomwarehasbeeninstalling]

Light gloves make me faster like 8oz

[@blox-fruits10]

As a pro boxer at 11 years old, I recommend using 12oz gloves for starters when you are young but if you want you can use 14-16 oz too It is much harder to move but it will improve your strength and movement

[@sloter21]

10oz for fights, pad work, heavy bag. 16oz for sparring and heavy bag work. I alternate between the two for heavy bag work 16oz for smashing the bag hard and 10oz for building up my hand speed.

[@MaxJamesboxing]

you got the right idea, keep it up man 🔥

[@Moistethan]

Knuckles for me

[@dxd--ajay]

Personally I use 12 I think 16s can be great too for building up endurance the 12s are just closer to 8-10 what you would fight with.For technique I usually go only hand wraps and a lighter/softer heavy bag

[@MaxJamesboxing]

Fair enough!

16oz for training. Offers wrist protection I believe they make you faster because they are heavy.

[@alex_jermaine]

Facts.

[@Iamrjayhd]

I alternate my gloves depending on what I want to work on. But for sparring always 16, bag work I change it up from fight gloves up to 16oz gloves just depends on what I want to use, I certainly do like hitting the bag with smaller gloves though 8oz 10oz. Especially with bag mitts response is so good and perfect to condition your knuckles. I have all sizes except 12 oz lol. Bag mitts 8oz, 10oz, 14oz and 16oz.

I started boxing 2 months ago and use a 10oz for everything, a lot of people are recommending me to get a 14/16 oz so I’m currently surveying

[@operacionessabogal685]

14 onz is good and safe for hit the bag

[@MaxJamesboxing]

Exactly how I feel 🔥

[@dogukandogan6554]

Punching with 14 and 16 oz is very difficult. Because the gloves are very heavy, they provide a lot of resistance when you punching. 10 oz is the most ideal and offical. But if you want to make your punches faster and more explosive, 14 and 16 oz are necessary, if you want to be more powerful, 10 oz or 8 oz are good because they have less density and the power goes directly to you

[@MaxJamesboxing]

solid take

[@Drpepperspray1010]

I love the 10 oz. It lets me punch super fast and provides just enough protection to avoid injuries

[@YakFlyFish]

10oz is my go to, gives you the best feel and response. People saying 16s for building endurance etc... 16s will teach bad habits and form if you dont already have form nailed down. Im not talking about everyone, but there is alot of bag slappers who always train in 16s 😂 Strength and conditioning plus sparring in 16s will take care of endurance and speed. We are talking about oz's not kilos on your hands after all 😂😂 16s ain't building endurance. 12s are a good compromise, 14s serve no purpose. My personal opinion.

[@MaxJamesboxing]

honestly sounds like your doing pretty good so far I just dont know how much you weigh, if your above 170 then consider using 16 oz sometimes but personally 14 oz are my favs cause its the perfect in between of protection and speed so if you can keep sharp technique with 14s keep it up!

I recommend 8 oz. best one out there. Good for people who have big forearms.❤❤❤❤

[@TreeJr44]

I fluctuate in weight between 178-190 at 5’9. I’m thinking about 14 oz for mitt/partner drills.. and 16oz for bag work. Think that’s ideal, or should I use 16 oz gloves for everything?

[@MaxJamesboxing]

no its good to use smaller gloves for different occasions

[@a.c.486]

16 oz for bag work? You can try it sure but it is way too much even for heavyweights I guess, bag work is most commonly done with 10-12 oz

[@user-of2pn8cj3j]

I am 65 kg, but I've been shadowboxing for 2 months and exercising atleast 1.5 years. What do you think what oz should i use for bag work?

[@MaxJamesboxing]

That’s good bro you gave good background. I would say use 14 oz. You wanna be using good form so you can also use 12 or 10. The best advice I would give its use whatever you can keep on for awhile while have good form because you don’t want to practice sluggish bad form.

16 or 18oz for heavy bag work. You need that hand protection so you can go hard.

10-12oz for training and lighter sparring, 16oz for heavier sparring.

[@andrewsanders17]

I know that gloves can make you think you are protected and that allows you to hit harder making you more likely to be injured when punching. My question is, is there a correlation between glove weight and injuries? The thought here is that boxers usually end up with more hand injuries than MMA fighter, which drops even further in bare-knuckle due to the idea that you can hit harder because you won't hurt yourself as much with more padding. I would assume that the lightest with the least padding for your hand would be the most damaging but then you hit harder if you have more padding which means the heaviest should be at greater odds of injuries. P.S. I hope you all have a fantastic day and stay safe.

[@karanlal4112]

That’s why you wrap your hands first

[@andrewsanders17]

@@karanlal4112 these studies were performed on professionals, people who know to wrap their hands. Also bare-knuckle boxers are not allowed to wrap their knuckles which is the main place of contact and injury in their sport.

[@littlescrap279]

You need all sizes, you should have a pair of light gloves , a pair for sparring…. I collect gloves and just switch out , keeps it fun, fun is good, plus look good, feel good, perform better! 8, 10-12s for technique (mitt work) 14-16 when you have sore hands or doing partner work drills, sparring …. When you train with really heavy gloves you don’t become fast, you just develop bad habits like dropping the hand after a jab, or falling over….. when you have heavy gloves and you lunch slow, it can be discouraging and make you not want to come back to work out, your work out gear should inspire you to work out! You should look 👀 at your gloves and shoes and wraps and can’t wait to get them on for the next day of schooling!

Smaller gloves helps with accuracy on mitts, helps condition the hands, you get much more feedback on your punches and because you are using smaller gloves you are more concerned about making sure your punches have proper placement and form so you don’t hurt yourself. Just like a fight
