I owned these a few years ago in 16 oz. They were well made but the hand compartment was too small and cramped my hands like no other gloves I have worn. I couldn't work out in them. I wound up giving them to a smaller guy at my gym. Maybe Fairtex upgraded them and made the hand compartment larger and more comfortable. For reference I'm 6 ft tall and wear size large winter gloves - I don't have heavyweight mitts. Btw the padding is nothing like Cleto Reyes. My BGV9s had very hard padding (like cement) while the Cletos have much softer padding which gives great feedback. I much prefer the Cletos.
I bought a pair in yellow for my nephew. Very good quality. Very durable according to their reputation. Not for someone with sensitive knuckles though. They hit hard.
@@InfamousAustinT0 I like the traditional Boxing style gloves rather than the Thai style so I would prefer these Fairtex gloves. But twins sgl 10 shin guards are the best pair of shin guards on the market
Great video, I have these and also a pair of the lace up version (BGV7), both in 14oz. I like the lace ups more, they are more streamlined and more secure. I am waiting for a pair of Adispeed 500 also lace ups, got really excited about these Adidas after watching your video about them. You have the best boxing gear channel, thanks for bringing us your news and reviews.
Very durable well made quality gloves at a great price. Good for Ppl that want the benefits of a expensive top end glove at a lower price point. Stitching is beautifully done Imo. Bargain definitely & the 3 payment plan is a bonus. Great review brother!
I watched your review of these gloves and bought them 4 months ago for $71. I use them every day, 5-6 times a week. They're good training gloves for a reasonable price. I'm considering Adispeed 501 ($281), custom Top boxer Alien($149) or Cleto Reyes ($382) for training gloves, and a set of Fly Superlace X ($240) or Phenom SG-210 ($228) for sparring. Those are their prices including shipping and import fees.
I own a pair. They make a great bag gloves but i don't think i will spar in them. The padding is too hard and dense in my opinion. But they preform well on the bag and mitts
Best boxing channel on UA-cam by far. Just wondered if these gloves are suitable for large hands because I struggle with a lot of 16 oz gloves when I’m wearing wraps. Thanks mate
Thankyou🙌🏼🙏🏼 these are not massive gloves on the inside so may not be the best if you have got large hands maybe 18oz would be better in these for you👊🏼👍🏼
¡Buen dia! Disculpe tengo una pregunta…que tal sale esta marca de guantes referente a su calidad de materiales y confort, y si tienen el nivel o estan al nivel de unos Cleto Reyes? Etc gracias
@@Fit2Boxtengo unos cleto reyes de 16 oz…estos vienen igual la talla? O están justos o amplios? Estoy entre comprar unos de 16 oz o de 14 oz. Saludos desde Mexico
@ it is similar to the bgv9 as a boxer glove, but it has softer padding on the knuckles área. I mean, it is laced up… I asked most because of the lace vs velcro and wrist protection. Thanks.
I've heard a lot of conflicting information about the size of the hand compartment (some say it's roomy, others say it's quite small). I see that you're using 16oz gloves and you're much taller than I am. I'm 5'10" but overweight and am trying to stick to a lower weight glove for bag work. Do you think I could get away with a 14oz glove in the BGV9? Thanks!
Hi coach,I have the bgv1.Very well made and good quality the only downside is there is no grip bar.Im not sure whether it's because they are actually Thai boxing gloves or not.I carnt seem to get a solid answer anywhere.was wondering if you could help me out?
I suggest that the hitting surface is wider than, say, the twins bgvl 3? Is it more difficult to insert the punch between the two hands? This brand or twins bgvl3 is the best choice?
@@Fit2Box my coach actually recommended 12 oz to train for speed and accuracy, I already have 14 oz decathlon for sparring. My real question here is that since mexican style gloves are thinner on the knuckle, would their 14 oz feel similar to its 12 oz more-rounded counterparts, or should I just go with the mexican 12?

Are these good for a relative beginner? Looking to get my first 'proper' pair of gloves for my amateur gym.

How long should gloves come up your wrist I got some they seem to come up to long what’s a good glove for pads and bags that’s shorter and not bulky but protective will pay up to £130ish

I hate when reviews comparing different Boxing gloves and one is a velcro version while you compare the lace up of the competitors. Of course the lace up will feel and perform better than a velcro glove.
It wasn’t to compare like for like it was show a Cleto Reyes glove against these to show shape size and quality - ALL my head to head videos are lace v lace or Velcro v Velcro
@@Fit2Box OK thank you for that. I see a lot of training gear review comparison videos do that. It just isn't a fair comparison. I'm happy you understand that and will not do that.

what do you mean with that these are not so safety gloves? do you mean that this one will hurt your training parter or do you mean that this gloves will not protect you good enough because of the less padding?
I bought the all white ones in 12oz for bag use but they're compact so I probably should've got them in 14oz. At £100+ they are up against stiff competition but still great value...but at £70 they're a no-brainer. Look around and you'll be able to save a good deal...
I really dont understand the reyes thing with always being severely off weight..u know why?? Very unprofessional imo. I got a new one 14 oz nd it weighs 18 oz!!! This baffles me
No it’s bizarre their fight gloves are on weight their training gloves are way off also my 20oz grant are 23oz!!! It’s crazy pointless putting the size indicator on the gloves
@@Fit2Box i wanted a 14 oz i need that snap in my punches the heavy glove weight makes it hard to snap ur punches. Im even thinking of selling them if someone is interested they r still new nd buy this bgv9 since its similar, much less expensive nd on weight almost exactly
That's easy to explain. Latex is natural material. Sometime you get denser latex (heavier) sometimes you get softer (lighter) from the same size. Unlike eva foam, latex is inconsistent. And latex is heavier than EVA foam. Cleto reyes fight gloves version use foam and horse hair, that explains consistent weight. My 14oz cleto weigh around 16oz.
