I've gone on a massive streak of trying gloves over the past two years and man Thai stitching is consistent and quality. Hard to find gloves that fit me in the Thai brands, especially in the thumb piping and positioning, but the leather and stitching quality as well as the passing and protection has been incredible quality and worth the $150-$300 price range
I own a pair for more than a year now. I use them often, about twice/three times a week. Boy, they are durable. They still look new as long as you consistently clean them.
I have these gloves in 16oz and I used them for sparring. Then again, I used the gloves on the bag for a while to brake them in. I would go roughly 4 mins a round/10 rounds on the bag, I got no complaints so far from my sparring partners. Then again, when we do spar, we go 30-40 percent power.
@@ThatBoxingGuy Hey, I forgot to mention. I been using it on the bag for 10 rounds, for a month, before I sparred in them. It definitely gotten softer compared the first time I had them. However, in my opinion, it still feels a little dense. I do agree with you though that the inner layer is nice. Overall, I think it is okay for sparring since I got them in 16oz, and I got no complaints yet. I always tell my sparring partners, if you notice these gloves feel to rough, or hard, I will gladly switch them out. I have a spare fairtex glory gloves 16oz and those are super soft.
@@ThatBoxingGuyyeah these are definitely hard gloves. I mainly use them for the bag work. It’s easy to make a fist in these, and I’m able to punch properly in these. I like these more than my title pro Mex gloves.
¡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
First thing, great review! My Twins Special gloves are done.. i Need a good paar of boxing gloves as allrounders. I kinda like those bgv9‘s, should i buy those gloves? ( i need more protection on my wrist)
Underrated* and np man! Idk if your in the market for new gloves but I've heard nothing but good things about the Hayabusa t4 boxing glove or the Twins Special gloves. Neither one are your stereotypical boxing glove but I hear there both great. I'd love to hear your take on them, but keep it up!
Hi Bernard. Thanks for the review. I was wondering if you had any experience with the Cleto Reyes extra padding gloves and how it would compare to these ones. I'm 5'9'' 165, my hands are starting to be a concern as I'm getting older...I can't afford Winning and Rivals' RB11 bag gloves hurt my hands pretty bad (impact absorption is actually great but the foam compresses the top of my knuckles. Bought 2 different sizes and they also don't seems like they would ever "break in"). I train mainly in kickboxing but they would be used only on heavy bag, sometimes for pad work. Thanks
If your hands hurt a lot be sure your wrapping yourself hands every time also be sure you’re wrapping correctly. Wraps should not be tight what so ever
According to my Muay Thai friends, the back of the hand doesn’t have enough padding to block kicks, and the wrist is not flexible compared to traditional MT gloves for clinching
Most of the time in Muay Thai class / drill work your not actually catching full force kicks unless your sparring (when yes you would use a more padded 16oz sparring glove) but for light drilling, pad work and the heavy bag, these gloves look like they could be a good option to me, when you want something not too bulky and pillow like for better feedback from pads and bag. Most clinching practice that I have seen is done without gloves on at all, and when your full sparring in 16oz gloves, clinching becomes a bit awkward. I actually train most of the time in Rival RFX Guerrero 10oz bag gloves, which I love. The only draw back is the hard plastic D ring on the wrist does scrape your pad holders head when you grab them to knee. Hence my interest in these BGV9s in 12 or 14oz as an option.
@@ThatBoxingGuy They are kind on the expensive side ($120 including shipping to the US). Which puts them just under a pair of Cletos. My only concern with the Cletos (and I also saw your review on them) is that they might be a bit wide for my skinny and long hands. Also, I just love the grip bar at the end of the finger tips on the Fairtex. If the BGL7s are less wide than the Reyes, and have the two grip bar system then I am kind of sold on them. Or should I just go for some nice and shinny Cletos? What would you do? Awesome channel you have BTW. Thanks!
@@ThatBoxingGuy Yesterday I ordered a pair from a Thai vendor, $100 shipped to my door. Got them in full murder Red (front and back) 14oz. Once they are here I'll report back to you. Question, whats your experience with elastic laces? in your videos it looks like you are just sliding your hand in the gloves using regular laces. Love your channel, keep it on!
I see you're using a 12oz glove and you've got a larger build than I do, but I tried a 14oz in a different brand and I couldn't even close the glove while wearing my wraps. I love these gloves but would like to keep the weight down for bag work. If you can fit a 12oz, would you say that the hand compartment is roomy?
Hey, thanks for commenting. But yeah, it really depends of the brand. Some brands like Cleto have the gloves a smaller fit as you go down in ounces. So I was surprised how well my hand fitted in these gloves
How are your thumbs in them? Mine seems like it pushes out too far. I have a 12oz. The 16oz fit fine but u wanted a 12 oz for pad/bag work I might have to get a 14 oz I’m just trying to figure out if my thumb is too long for the 12oz
Hi. Which gloves would you recommend as safest for opponent for boxing sparing? Could you please name one or two types available in Europe? 16 or 18 oz. Big hand. Best regards.
Hello Kuya. Can I ask if 12 oz too big for me? I am 5 ft, 125lbs. I have small hands too. I will just be using it for cardio kickboxing and the fightcamp. Thank you for your time
Are these good for a relative beginner? Looking to get my first 'proper' pair of gloves for my amateur gym. Heard these well recommended by loads on the net - but i am concerned they are too hard for a beginner still learning how to punch the bag properly - my cheaper amazon set hurt my knuckles. My price bracket is just over £100. I had a look at your ratings which are very great for getting an idea, but they don't quite tell me what is good from a beginner point of view :) Ideally, I don't want to wait for a glove to me made and ship from Pakistan, although I could wait If you'd particularly say one is good for a beginner. All purpose, protective beginner glove of choice under £110 what is your pick please :)
@@ThatBoxingGuy fantastic thank you, they sound Ideal. I think for my amateur gym thet recommend 16oz gloves. I'm 75kg and 6ft - would you say 16oz? - good to build up shoulder strength etc.
I actually already answered this but when I change my account to a business account all my comments got deleted. But I prefer these. I find the hayabusa too restrictive. But good if you need that wrist support
@@ThatBoxingGuy appreciate the rapid response. One more quick question, what weight would you recommend for a 230 pound guy that will use the gloves for mitt and heavy bag only?
Any size really. If strictly for the bag and mitts it doesn’t matter, go light if you like speed and precision or heavy if you want protection and work endurance
why do people use smaller gloves for bagwork? wouldn't 16oz be better for conditioning and endurance overall? also should i get these in 16s as bag gloves or save up for reyes for bag? im 5'7 60kgs
I actually have both of them in 16oz, and let me tell you, the bgv9 is better in terms of diversity. Win1 topboxer for 16oz is not the best glove for bag and mitts because of how soft they are so you don't feel your punches because they are meant for sparring.
knuckle protection is not good for heavy bag .it is 16 oz but it is 18 oz also it is stiff gloves.at the begining my sparring partners werent happy :) ua-cam.com/video/GfbBW9-QwfE/v-deo.html pad performance nice review

that usual materials you mentioned on the inner lining work good for wicking sweat away. Much better than Rival inner lining.
