Good review, looking to get one for sparring espically when guys start to throw head kicks and elbows.
Yeah that would be a great idea. You definitely want to protect your face from elbows because those can do some serious damage. Check out other brands too though, there’s other good face bar headgears out there that may offer more padding or better protection.
Lol, screw those guys
Elbows shouldn’t be thrown in sparring unless you’re wearing elbow pads. JS 🥊
Great vid showed us everything
Thank u for this u convince me to buy this
Nice review
Good review might get something similar to protect the nose
Great video!
This looks great
Can you still feel the hit in the nose if the bar its too close to it? And can it still make you bleed?
Yes and yes. It doesn’t fully protect your nose. It will still protect your nose from significant damage. It does a good job of minimizing damage so that you get less nose bleeds and don’t feel it as much when you get hit in the nose.
I use this facegear a lot. It is not very secure and it tends to slip (granted, my head is quite small). The main issue is that my nose touches the nose bar and when i get hit in the nose, my nose feels its 100%. The nose bar doesn’t really save your nose, unlike other face savers.
Yeah it’s not the best at it. But for the weight and visibility it’s pretty decent. There’s always a give and take.
@@brazianreviews2232 i recently got the fly x face saver headgear. Best headgear ive used ever.
nice review bro
Would that also prevent a boxer nose? I mean that your nose gets bigger over time or changes the shape
Any deformities to the nose shape will come from injury or damage to the nose. This head gear will limit the amount and also severity of nose injuries sustained in sparring. I cannot guarantee that your nose will not be damaged in boxing if you are fighting real fights because you will not be wearing this head gear. I’d you are only training in the gym then I would say you are much less likely to suffer repeated nose injuries that would permanently change the shape of your nose. However, I cannot guarantee this because accidents can happen at any moment.
Brazian Reviews Thank you for your kind and fast reply!!! I only plan to train and do light sparrings, so I think I‘m good to go :)
is it bulky? do you get caught on the sides while slipping to the sides often?
It’s really difficult to answer that question.
I would say compared to other face-saver headgear it is Less bulky.
Compared to a standard headgear, it may feel slightly bulkier.
Either way, the size of it will not affect your sparring. I wouldn’t think of the headgear as being the reason why you’re getting hit. I would focus more on how to avoid getting hit, even if the headgear is bulky. The only issue with a head gear being too bulky is if it is too Heavy. This headgear is not too heavy though.
I hope I answered your question.
@@brazianreviews2232 Thx bro. I'm asking because I have the RDX facesaver. When I bought it I thought it would be small and not heavy but after 1-2 sparrings i understood that i couldn't use head movement well. I was getting caught because of it a lot on the sides because its big as shit and weights 700 grams which is a lot...
Other than Venum, does Hayabusa make headgears too?
Yes, many combat sports companies make headgear. As far as the face bar style, they are a little bit more limited to a handful of companies. They’re starting to be come more prevalent though. Check out ever last, winning, and cleto to name a few.
I still got a busted nose wearing one, I’m not sure if the glove got in or the guard moved and it just got pushed against my nose
Yeah I’m guessing it got pushed back into your nose because that happens to me. There are limitations to the headgear but it does offer protection to your eyes and other areas of the face. I haven’t gotten any cuts or bruises so far. How about you?
@@brazianreviews2232 no cuts and bruises, think with 16oz gloves ya should be safe. Iv ordered another headguard, open face with cheek protectors, my defence has gotten a lot better and I loose vision with the bar, plus I can kinda feel the bar on the forehead when I get hit
@@kev9385 what brand did you get for your face-saver headgear? Also, what brand will your new headgear be?
why dont you wear one of those Nose Protector shields (made by Qian Cheng) ?
you can wear that + a normal open face boxing headguard.
in that way your nose is protected and it does not obstruct your vision neither.
Hi bro!Im 73 kg and my face is slim with sharp jawline and cheekbones my head is small also.This is will be my first headgear and i will be not able to try it.Which size will be good for me S or M?For this headgear and other.
Go with the smaller one if you’re not sure. You don’t want it oversized because it will move around too much.
Can you still see the kicks while wearing? Is it good for muay thai?
This head gear will interfere with the ability to see kicks because it blocks some visibility from the lower body. Things like upper cuts will also be harder to see. It’s not impossible to see but it makes it more difficult.
How well does it protect the eyes? I’ve had a few injuries (corneal abrasion) and I now wear glasses
It does a decent job of protecting the eyes. If you get punched directly in the eye area, the gloves will get through. However, I have not suffered any eye injuries while wearing this headgear. It does not completely stop eye punches but it will reduce the impact and severity of punches to the eye.
@@brazianreviews2232 ok thanks!
Have you found headgear for your eyes?
Do you get hit in your eyes at all? I wanna box but if I get hit in my right eye my lens can tear. So I can’t get hit in my eye.
Yes you can get hit in the eye still. Sometimes a glove with enough padding can get through the opening around the eyes. If you have any sort of eye injury that puts you at risk, I would not recommend any contact drills or sparring.
With that said. Boxing is not all about sparring or fights. Most of the time spent in the boxing gym is used for training that involves mostly non-contact methods. I highly recommend you still pursue boxing just don’t do the contact portion. There’s endless heavy bag drills, mitt drills, shadow boxing, footwork.
If you really want to try sparring for the sake of trying it, ask your partner to do ONLY body shots. I’m not recommending this, I’m just saying this is something that I’ve done in the past where you won’t be at risk of any injury to the head or face. Please be safe and dont think that you have to do contact stuff to train boxing.
@@brazianreviews2232 thanks for the response. And if i don’t do any contact then if I did fight I’d lose all my boxing training or a majority of it.
Do you see hooks and uppercuts in sparring? how much does it cut the sight?
You can see most punches, the only problem is there is a slight blindspot for uppercuts. Hooks you should be able to see. This is not a complete turn off for me though. If you are defensively sound and move your head a lot you will be just fine.
Did you tape up the chin strap?
Yes. Theres velcro on it that can scratch your skin if the Velcro is exposed. The tape covers it and prevents this.
@@brazianreviews2232 i hate velcro I have a Winning fg2900
@BlackBeltValeTudo yeah it’s not the most ideal placement. I don’t mind that they used Velcro. It was just unfortunate that the placement or engineering was not the best. How do you like your winnning headgear?
@@brazianreviews2232 it feels nice
I'll post a video review on it soon
Hey, how is the vision?? Can you see good?
yes its pretty good. just hard to see upper cuts.
How can I purchase this headgear?
I got mine on Amazon I believe.
Still using it all this time later?
Yeah. It’s the only headgear I use. If I get a new one it would be a similar type of headgear with the face bar.
@@brazianreviews2232Thanks for responding so swiftly .Yes I do light to moderate sparring and I think this would be the one to use. I have been training for years and never had a head piece. But I figure to add to layers of protection.
Check out my hand-wrapping tutorial. Better than traditional hand wrapping. ua-cam.com/video/daM-rdFaFio/v-deo.html
It’s hard to decide which one is good, but thank you for your video. Now I know.🫡
Hi bro how was it in sparring?
It works just as good as other face savers. I think the best advantage it has over other face saver headgear is how well Venum balanced the weight distribution and overall weight. It doesn’t feel like there’s too much weight hanging off the front like other face savers. This one feels much more balanced like you’re wearing regular headgear. It does a good job of protecting the face as well, I have never gotten a bruise or broken nose when wearing it.
@@brazianreviews2232 thanx bro for the insights. Appreciated it.
@mohamed Hugh I wouldn’t say it completely saves my nose. For me, the face bar sits kind of close to my nose so if I get hit hard it pushes back into my nose. However, it does a decent job of protecting you so that you don’t take any direct shots to the nose. For example, only straight shots will push it back but it doesn’t get pushed back far enough to cause any seriousness damage. Also, only straight punches can cause the bar to push back into the nose. Punches that come from the side or underneath cannot hit the nose. This may be a fitting issue that venom needs to work on or it might just be the way that the headgear fits on my head. It would be better if the face bar did not sit so close to my nose. It is not the face bar bending back into my nose, it’s more of the head gear as a whole moving back and so the face bar also moves back. All that being said, I haven’t suffered any damage to my nose so far in sparring.
@mohamed Hugh I also hate getting hit in the nose. That’s why I recommend getting a face saver headgear. There are a few other models that look good. I would check out everlast, rival, and winning if you can afford it. This one gets the job done for a reasonable price, but there are things that venom could have done to make it better. Make sure you do the research because they are expensive so you need to get a good one the first time.
how much does it weigh?
On the Amazon listing it says about 1.45 lbs or 0.66 kg. I would say from wearing it this does seem like an accurate measurement.
Pretty heavy
