Boxing gloves vs MMA gloves - Which one hits harder?

- It is easy to assume that using MMA gloves will allow you to hit harder compared to using boxing gloves since MMA gloves have less padding compared to boxing gloves.
This video tells a different story...

Gloves are made for protecting the fist, not the oponent
Both actually, but in the long run fighters perm get brain damage anyway, would be a lot worse if there was no padding in fighting
Siddharth Kochhar if there was no padding they’re forced to not hit as hard cause they know if you mess up your hand is gonna break easily

Joe Rogan spoke about this
Armor CAN give a false sense of security, same goes for padded gloves
Bare knucle boxing has been used in the past
Honestly who are you gonna punch and kick harder, the guy in the padded body suit, or the guy wearing no pads
have you watched street fight with only handwrap?Tens of accidents in a day

Gloves protect hands. Not the head.

It’s one guy punching a bag once with each glove, there’s no way he punched with the same power. Best test would be to use a machine
He didn’t do it once, I don’t think
True, but that wouldn't have any practical conclusions - you don't exactly spar with machines in either sport.
The test is to help newbies choose which sport is safer for them.
if it is scientific they’ll have many different trials and also humans punch differently depending on their protection so a machine wouldn’t work
Pippo how is starting from mma "useless"
there’s not going to be a large difference in power. Maybe a few kilos but they are looking for big patterns not just tiny differences
The thing is, the gloves distribute the weight across more surface area, where as a bare knuckles punch is more localized.
Makes sense Like u said with bare fist it's Point directed with gloves it's a larger area but comparing bare knuckles to boxing gloves you would think it's like a Nerf gun to a bullet but actually the only difference is impact and pain boxing gloves can have way more impact but slightly less pain compared to bare knuckles which could have both
if you full force hit someone with bare knuckles you are most likely braking your hand
the skull has much stronger bones than your hands
can you brake somoenes face with a punch sure! no doubt. but if you full force a punch with no glove you are braking their face and your hand
with a glove you can break your wrist if you are terrible at punching at best
at the expense of not braking their face
but at the benefit of being far more confident at hitting with full force
ie a person will definitely hit you harder with a glove than with a bare fist
@@MostWantedWannaBE yes bare hand will likely bend someone else's skull and bones but also damaged your knuckles
Ex pro fighter here. The impact feels so different in each case. The boxing gloves have way more concussive impact. It feels more like a "boingg" hit like being hit with a big heavy sack of dough.
Getting hit with small gloves is more of a sharp shock. Like being hit with a baton.
The boxing gloves are much more likely to knock you out, but the small gloves do more damage. The boxing gloves are also much more likely to give you a solid impact whereas smaller gloves are almost always glancing blows.
Think of it like when the boxing glove hits you it's impact is spread over a large area BUT it means more of the force is transferred to the target rather than dissipating

couldnt they get a machine to punch the bag with the same force wearing different gloves? i love bas and all but this leaves too much room for human error
+Dustin Trinidad I'd think that they took an average of a few punches. With an elite fighter like him delivering maximum power each punch using correct form won't be an issue. So that would make the results very accurate in the end.
of course there's human error, but this practice was meant to show the force of humans not a machine.
and a machine wouldn't be able to accurate punch the same with each glove or barehand. they used a human because you should be a tiny bit faster with the smaller gloves and even a tiny bit faster than that bare knuckle.
what this was meant for was to show how the impact to the brain (only impact that usually matters) is very minute between the two gloves and barehand.
a boxing glove is bigger but harder in the strike area. it's not meant to be very flexible for grappling use.
this only proves to me what I've known forever, don't get or punch anyone unless you're doing it for a sport.
a concussion is a concussion all the same
Michael Roche you can replicate a human's force with a machine.
+Dustin Trinidad not the differences in gloves and no gloves. the machine would swing the same speed with each, that's the problem.
a humans punch would be at slightly different speeds, we're talking hundredths of seconds.
it probable a machine could adjust for weight and wind differences, but I'm not positive that much $$$ was set aside for such a test that means nothing to the sports.
you're probably correct, but does it matter ? I'm pretty sure everyone involved in fighting knows the minimal differences in impact between the gloved and non gloved punch.
gloves are for hand protection, I think this little study was more for the casual fans who think there's a huge difference when there's really non
Michael Roche yeah, a machine can replicate that too

The difference is in the kinetic delivery and distribution, which I don't know if they got into or not...
But what it ACTUALLY means is that full boxing gloves delivery significantly more blunt-force/concussive impact compared to MMA gloves more localized force.
So, while MMA gloves will be noticably more effective at dermal trauma, as well as being more likely to damage skeletal structures (due to having a finer "point" of impact), you're far more likely to experience *concussive* damage getting hit by a boxing glove due to the larger surface area and general blunt force impact.
What that REALLY means is that MMA gloves are more likely to bust you up, while boxing gloves are more likely to rattle your brain (causing more long-term damage), despite the measurable force being relative/having a negligible difference.
what if my MMA gloves are enchanted with +3 concussive damage?
@@lukasmuller1274 they patches that in v0.30
thats just your opinion, and its not backed by any proof. Kos are far more likely in bare knuckle and MMA fights than in boxing.
@@juncearyoutube3336 No they're not lmao.
@@juncearyoutube3336 yeah, that's why one of the fighter's with the most Ko's at the highest level in MMA (for example, Rumble Johnson) has 18 Ko/TKO and let's say Tyson Fury, has 22, or Deontay Wilder has 41, and Canelo has 30+, and that's not even mentioning the hardest hitter's ever in boxing, like george Foreman, Mike Tyson, Rocky Marciano, Etc. So No, Ko's in MMA are not that common really, to be fair, i think that submissions are more common than Ko's, and a huge amount of fight's go to the judge's scorecards, much more commonly than in boxing
can someone explain why in boxing some punches look really flimsy, as if they barely scratched the person, yet 2 seconds later the person is KO'd...I'm guessing the feel of the punch is a LOT harder than what it looks like from a distance
Viral Killer a lot of the time the person would already be exhausted so it would not take much to KO them. imagine you just ran 10km and just as you stopped someone started throwing punches at your head before you caught you breath. You'd go down pretty easy
Viral Killer boy you are tripping.in mma is the same thing.ive seen so many hits in the face that barelly touched the person and he got KO.ed
Viral Killer you lose your footing when your tired/out of breath and anything can knock you down
It's not the hard punches that knock someone out. It's usually the ones they don't see coming and aren't defending
Viral Killer oh shit, what up man? I didn't think to see you on this side of UA-cam
The force is equal but with a bigger glove the force will land on a bigger surface. With a smaller glove the force is concentrated on a smaller surface wich is more dangerous.
*which
Neon Poptart Ok english teacher you might aswell be his personal auto correct
Also to add to this - impulse. Same principle as safety in cars (collissions) since the larger padding takes some more time to compress it distributes the force over time. It's stupid to talk about force to begin with (it's equal regardless of glove) but, as you say, it is distributed differently with the different gloves - in time and over different areas.
Once on MMA training I was told boxing glove can be more dangerous than bare fist or MMA glove. I remember it is supposed to have something to do with softness of a striking area. Knuckles have the hardest and the smallest striking area and this causes the energy to "shatter" on the surface of a skull, causing bruises, cuts and bone fractions. And in boxing gloves, thanks to the softness of striking area, more of this energy gets delivered inside the head, causing more damage to the brain (again - I'm just saying what I was taught).
Plus, I'm not sure if fast K.O-s are safer than multiple strikes. Not long ago a young boxer in my country got K.O-ed in his first professional fight. He died in the hospital.
GL said it all. Boxing gloves equal more damage to the brain, when knuckles or mma gloves distribue some of the force to skin and bone. Thats why there are so many deaths in boxing and almost none in mma
You cant just measure the force, you need to measure the force per square inch. That takes into account the surface area of the glove too.
Yeah, I mean, otherwise youre just measuring the strenght of the punch, which shouldn't change
@@imyourmaster77 it should if there’s absorption. also what do you think force is? force without area cant be measured, they’re measuring force/area inches or cm idk
@@Fuphu im no expert but Id asume by force they meant mass times acceleration. Theres no area in that formula. The only significan change should be the mass of the gloves, but in ideal conditions that evens out.
@@Fuphu bruh plus absortion doesn't change jack about the punch, wether you hit concrete or a sandbag, you still using the same force
@@imyourmaster77 fair for ur first comment, second comment? i'm sorry put on 3 pillows and punch with the same force and see if there's any change. or how about a machine with a jelly hand to punch with that force. there's a reason bullets arent made of soft materials excluding soft tips, harder material tends to have more force

PistOn1313 probably felt that way because of a flatter and bigger area you got hit with. compared to a bare fist anyway
Jacob Glaze yeah and also the weight of the gloves
But the MMA glove, all that force is concentrated on a smaller point, so more damage.
Dumbest test ever... the major difference is in how the hands are taped. Having done both I can tell you that you can hit a lot harder with boxing gloves because your hand and wrist are like in a cast. The tape under mma gloves is much less and less on the wrist.
Your brain won't let you hit bare knuckle as hard as with a cast.

Why dont they use a machine that will hit with the same exact force each time, instead of a human whose force will always vary
because most people would rather watch a famous person and all they care about are viewers.
but yes, you're correct, they shouldn't use a human to test something like this
Alex Mallinson what he said ^^^^
Well, why would they test a machine if machines aren't the ones that throw punches? Also, if they use a machine, they'd know how much force there would be behind that "punch" because the researchers alone would have to calibrate it, so that would make it pointless. To get the best results, they have to use the truest subjects i.e. a professional fighter.
Leo Corona You're clearly not smart.
lol.... you just argued against yourself...
exactly. they would calibrate it... therefore.... they would know EXACTLY how much the force imparted would be and the impulse derived from the mass x velocity divided by time....
and all they would have to do is put different gloves on it..
Damn, this man fought with knuckles, a REAL fight in a street fight
+Kevin “The Cadet” R. and he hit those guys with nearly 750 pounds of force with each punch. that's enough to kill someone if he got a clean hit like that one.
That was actually Pancrase, an MMA promotion, which's ruleset stated thatclosed-fisted punches where allowed, except to the head, and palm strikes to the head. So basically he didn't hit or get hit by knuckles in the face.
+Ægir Unless he got backhanded which was allowed.
Larger size gloves spread out the area the force is applied to.
The size of the impact area is very important. Not just the Force. That's why scientists use PSI.
and also how long it takes to disperse that force. hitting your head on a wheel or an airbag are very different things, even if your head is carrying the same energy
You can see at the end with the comparison that he went through with the hook more when he punched with the boxing gloves. They should have done at least 5-10 punches with each and gotten an average, because what if one of these punches was an outlier, like what it on average the bare fisted one would actually get 100 higher but he wasn't used to punching the heavy bag bare fisted. It doesn't seem right that an MMA glove with 4 ounces for pros or 6 ounces for amateur would be give the same padding as a boxing glove with 10 or 12 ounce gloves, and I've used a variety of boxing gloves myself and the lighter ones tend to hit harder, and bare fisted obviously felt like it had the largest impact.
based on what they said I think he did do it multiple times
@@gabrielkesshinsanchez9139 They talked about it as if he only did one tho, like they said something along the lines of "on this one he did..." which implies he only did it once
@@razeenrajaful I believe I heard them say ranging from a number to another number but I may be Wrong
They would have done it multiple times from a purely Film perspective, id say each punch would have had at-least 3-5 takes outside of an average/study science perspective. Then the film editor pics whatever punch looks better and was shot better and works for their edit.

Watching this after 9 years again because of recommendation, wow, feels emotional. Nostalgic.
The reason the bare knuckle registered higher is its focused on a smaller area of the force pad. In reality you can punch much harder wearing boxing gloves because you're adding a pound of weight to your hand and you dont have to worry about breaking your knuckles.
Except most boxers break hands and fingers anyway even with gloves on
@@doubletapthatdotty4597 most? I’m not sure where you’re getting those statistics, but I’m willing to bet that a majority of boxers will not break their fingers with gloves on.

More people died getting punch by a boxing glove than an mma glove. the reason is because the gloves damages the brain more than the mma glove. The mma glove does more damage on your skin and bones which doesnt kill you. If i had to choose to get hit by a mma glove or a boxing glove from a hard puncher i would pick the mma glove.

***** This particular debate isn't exactly going to effect the world smart ass
+Joan Cassie I thought boxing gloves were meant to reduce damage/impact so you know no die (Even though they still do)
Kornelius Heydrich The weight of the gloves does add a bit more power in the swing than mma or barenuckle...I've been hit by all of these and they all suck
yeah, but mma is not really a gentleman's sport. you need much more dedication in boxing. you box by your life and brain. mma is you box with your body. both are amazing sports but I have more respect for boxing. I personally did boxing and tye boxing.
+Kornelius Heydrich They do reduce damage and impact, however, the higher incidence of deadly head injuries in boxing has more to do with new technique than with the gloves themselves.
Back in the bare knuckle era boxers were very measured in their head shots, mainly because they feared striking the top of the skull by mistake and hurting their hand. Hence their tecnique was mainly focused on body shots and precise strikes to the face (nose, mouth and chin).
Then boxing gloves came along and suddenly boxers start delivering headshots like crazy because they no longer have to fear breaking their hand. This in turn led to an unexpected rise in deadly head injuries in boxing, but the gloves themselves are not to be blamed directly.
Boxing gloves absorb impact with a larger surfice when contact, it also protect boxers' fist. However it isn't necessarily safer than MMA gloves, since, rather than having a knockout and ending a fight, it prolongs a fight and help induces many more small concussions, which is potentially more dangerous due to it's subtle threat to a fighter.
Me who never seen a video about mma or boxing. UA-cam 11 years later: recommendable
This is inaccurate. Force should not be the measurement used, but PSI.
Na dude actually it should be the impulse lol
rollinggoronable
"Actually" disregarding PSI is a mistake.
Na man that's pressure aplyed, impulse measure the the force and how long it takes for that force to stop, the higher the impulse the more damage it does, cussioning reduces the impulse but at the same time it increases momentum due the weight of the glove itself
Like I said before. Disregarding PSI in any combat scenario in history is folly.
Can confirm that PSI is irrelevant for punches that does not cause fracture.
the boxing gloves absorbs bone to bone shocks
the force can be similar but the hurt you feel from boxing glove and mma is different even if both have same force
+franco depp I fought with both boxing gloves hurt my head more mma gloves hurt my face more easier to drop someone with mma gloves tho but has fuck all to do with padding its just cause they are lighter boxing gloves start to feel really fucking heavy after a few rounds hard to swing full power
But the MMA glove, all that force is concentrated on a smaller point, so more damage.
There is extremity damage like cuts, bruising and broken bones. But when it comes to brain damage, all three are fairly close and will KTFO people.
@@shaunmaguire6912still MMA there is more chance of a KO ...
They nailed the function of the MMA glove allowing someone to grapple but still retain knockout power. Although they still allow eye pokes as well as aren't using any special foam.
You can hit harder with confidence if you have more padding, though a fist would probably do a lot of damage as the bare knuckles are very hard and can cause lots of damage.
Imagine if Jake Paul hit woodley with his knuckle 💀 woodleys head would he blown off
@@minimcgregorminipekka7386 no, boxing gloves tend to give more impact than bare knuckles, but bare knuckles will break bones since it was more smaller and localized

0:23 that's Pancrase, a former MMA event in Japan, and they didn't use gloves because punching wasn't allowed. If you watch closely he doesn't punch him, he used his palm since open hand strikes was the only thing allowed.
MMA gloves KO easy because the force of the punch is concentrated on a smaller surface, which means it will add more impact. Sort of like poking someone with a sharp knife and blunt knife.
the reason they knockout faster is because theyre also harder to block
good point
No, that's troll physics.
Reducing the surface area increases the penetration and pain (like you said, stabbing someone with a knife) but doesn't actually increase the amount of force that rocks your head, which is the actual knockout power. The only reason is reduced padding.
Yeah but it also decreases the spread of impact, meaning the full power of the blow is being targeted into a smaller area for example "the button" instead of landing on a bigger area and spreading the power accordingly.
***** Not always the case, as mentioned before a small glove focuses all the power on one point, which means the force is concentrated on a smaller surface.
They forgot to take into account that boxers also wrap there fist with a few inches of padding and tape underneath the glove, which adds considerably more force and impact.
bro its been more than 10 years. why was i recommended this
The whole almost 2 decade of my life i always thought gloves isade to protect the face of ppl who got punch. Only recently i know it was actually to protect the punchers hand
the gloves are supposed to protect your hand, not the guy getting punched. boxing gloves do protect hands better, mma fighters break their hands more. i'm pretty sure mma gloves hurt more since it's almost all knuckles. also consider that fact that its easier to block and cover up with big boxing gloves, compared to mma gloves which you can easily slip punches through anyone's block
Gator Once a professional boxer said to me, that if they (pro boxers) tried to punch as heavy as they do without any wrapping and gloves, they would break most of their bones in hands.
Daniel Dziubanowski well no shit. your head is much, much harder than your fist, and its heavier, and the bones are several times bigger. and I don't know if you've ever punched anyone in the face with your bare knuckles, but your hand hurts like hell afterwards
I was suppose to go to sleep why am I watching this
0:20 that sound of bareknuckel punch is gonna keep me awake
I miss Nat Geo specials , now a days it's all food and travel .
with the MMA glove you have far better contact with what you are hitting. Meaning, your hand has closer contact to the face, body, etc. Due to the boxing glove providing more protection, for the boxer when punching, together with hand wraps this enables him/her to hit harder than they would with MMA gloves. Purely down to the protection of the hand. In order to be as realistic as possible this, the hand wraps need to be factored in, and may be why there is only slightly more force in the MMA punching power. Also, the MMA glove is not designed, or suitable for heavy bag use so this test is effectively bunk. A sparring bob punching bag stand would be best suited, i.e man punching bag, to make this test as accurate as possible in hitting an actual human being.
This is exactly the correct explanation
you can dodge a mma glove much easier than a boxing glove
But you can protect yourself way better with boxing gloves
BristolViceSquad also, MMA let you be kicked too
я є ν є и α и т not only that. I'd say boxing is way more dangerous because of its rules.

Got recommended this 13 years later
Got into my reccomendatuons 13 years later 🙏
I guess that with more padding, you are less concerned over hurting your own knuckles but surely with lower surface area means higher pressure. So wouldn't that mean that punches to the softer parts of the body like the torso would have more damage?
And this is of course 100% accurate because you did one trial an it's assumed that the boxer always exerts the same amount of force. Genius television.
Watching during quarantine..

if this is right then manny pacquiao hits harder than bas lol his bare hand punch was 806 lbs of force
He probably does punch harder because hes a boxer lol all that matters is that bas would absolutely fuck him up in a fight
SOB I think that what matters in this test, is the fact that Manny hits harder lol
Well its not a fact for sure considering what they're testing, if you've ever take a physics course and learned simple facts you'd easily be able to see that, i was just cracking a joke which also happens to be a fact no need to get emotional

Bas Rutten’s famous by his deadly kicks
13 yrs to recommend this to me, thx yt
9 years later, youtube recommended this :)
One thing gloves do is take the "sting" out of a punch. The "sting" mostly comes from impulse. Impulse is force delivered over time. Gloves don't so much diminish force, they just spread it out. MMA glove padding is denser than in boxing gloves, so they have a similar effect on slowing the punch.
They did not mention the weight of the boxing glove. Not to mention boxers wear hand wrap, gauze and tape, which would increase padding.
Michael Koenig a layer of hand wrap doesn't make a difference
Holy algorithm of UA-cam thank you for making me wiser once again.
This is why I always train my knuckles so it would be sharp, large and durable for my karate sparings competition.
I think they're overlooking the biggest difference. A boxing glove disperses the energy over a larger area. Hit the head it won't make much of a difference, but body shots, concentrating that force to a smaller area is going to penetrate more.
I agree I also think MMA gloves are worse for lighter attacks such as a jab I believe it would produce more SnapBack to the head as you can throw it quicker than a boxing glove and is a harder surface on impact of course you can hit harder without breaking the hand with a boxing but I also think the fact that the glove is lighter has its downsides such as repetitive brain damage as when your exhausted in a fight you can throw more punches with a MMA glove also the fact that they are smaller limits your defence if you boxed with MMA gloves you would get hit a lot more
shouldn't they state the weight of the boxing glove? they're are different uses of boxing glove weight depending on what you're punching: 16oz heavy bag, 10oz sparring. This weight can make a genuine difference to the amount of power you could receive from a punch.
People are saying it protects the hands, pretty obvious, it also stops the other fighter from having more unnecessary cuts in a sanctioned fight which can cause early stoppages.
Why don't they make great shows like this nowadays
A boxer without gloves could take out a mma fighter anyday
That is the dumbest and least educated comment on UA-cam
how so? care to explain?
Well first of all the gloves are to protect the hands more than anything so a boxer fighting without gloves will break his hands if he's throwing full power ( true for any fighter) second mixed martial arts today means you have to be elite in every martial art, the ufc fighters today are boxers as well as masters of every other martial art. boxing is a martial art. The ufc and other leagues are composed of the most dangerous fighters in the world, because over the past ten years the competition has steadily grown to where it is today, 90% of mma fighters could compete in boxing, no boxer has or ever could transition into mma with only boxing as their tool.
Robert Van Helden 90% what about the other 10%? I doubt a boxer would enter mma without some mma training; if you will. Sure, a mma fighter could go to boxing, but they would get whooped. Vice versa. mma kicks in a street fight lol a boxer would see that coming a mile away. before they could tackle down the boxer, he could move and hit you in the sweet spot. and there hands are faster. if both fighters are equal but that is never the situation.
+thatnormalguy9 I follow both sports religiously and I'm telling you that's not the case, James toney attempted to fight in the ufc and got f*^*ed up bad,, but there is many mma fighters who have some of nicest hands in the world, junior dos santos, nick diaz, & many more would dominate in boxing, James toney is a boxing legend and he thought he could tear it up in a real fight and he got destroyed, boxing is dying because it's not practical, bobbing, weaving in a real fight will get you crushed by a knee or kick, holding your hands high leaves you open to takedowns etc. etc. mma boxing is different but it's more practical
I dont know if this is me but I always felt more of a push when being hit with a boxing glove, and more friction and heat when being hit with an MMA one.
everyone who got this clip recommended after 9 years
me who searched for this🤡🤡
Are you calling yourself a clown?
@@baroncaledon5940 smth like that
After 13 years UA-cam recommended this video to me :)
0:27 lol dab
I think Bass is hitting with last three knuckles like dempsy force line.
There is so much more to take into account. Like how much damage it does to the tissue, how spread out is it and so many more
Back then I didn't know I would be UFC fan one day
So can someone please explain to me why MMA fighters fall SO much easier than boxers if its practically the same force?
With the boxing glove, the force is spread throughout the opponent's face. But with the mma glove, the force is concentrated on a specific area.
The way they throw their punch is completely different...
maybe boxers are a lot more trained to get hit on the face then mma fighters?
DzekoVelez they fall easier because of the distribution of energy. Think of small gloves as 1 nail, now stand on that one nail and compare it to large gloves and a bed of nails.
because in boxing you are playing for points.
Boxing gloves just spreads the impact. which can be more of an advantage as that gives u more chance of knockout
It's also the area of concentration.
The "padding" dispersed/distributed the focal point
It's not the force that they should research but the impact on the brain and boxing gloves definitely put the most impact on the brain
nice palm strike by bas in the start there
i gotta say, it seems his boxing glove shot didnt havea solid connection, it slipped towards the end.
Thanks for recommending this I guess? See you guys on the next recommendation.🖐🏻
It’s the 10 year anniversary of this video!😳
The padding lowers the pressure/stress at the point of contact. Bigger padding provides better protection against breaking bones and what not, but does very little to dampen the force of the punch itself, where concussions are caused by accelerating the brain at a high rate. Therefore, it may be true that bigger gloves won't prevent the KO any better than the MMA glove or even a bare first, but they sure help to prevent damage to facial features and the puncher's hands.
margarito's glove hits harder .
That fucker lol
Mark Mhacoy Dimacali bricks*😂
the most surprisingly is how he keep making the same expression when punching
Thanks YT for enlightening me 13 years later
1:52 some thumb on that boy
With gloves you can hit harder with knowing you won’t break your hand.
So you trow a harder punch
Depends to a person who use it.
The force is dispersed more with a glove though because the point of impact is larger. Like standing barefoot on 100 nails vs standing on 1.
Doesn't explain deaths in boxing v mma
And boxing gloves hit harder because your hands are better protected
aldo depends on bas punch velocity each time....prob should try more punches with different people
Who is here after Ksi won?
Me lol
Stfu pussy

That was an unexpected ending.
Fucking love Bas! Will watch anything with him in it
If you hit exactly the same every time you swing your fist, you're delivering the same amount of force. The only thing gloves are for is dispersing that force over a wider area of your fist, protecting your knuckles and your fingers from having that force distributed over 4-5 small points and therefore making damage to the hands significantly less likely.
the key is, delivering force to what? If you imagine hitting with a spring glove, then most of the force is wasted on compressing the spring, not transferring to target. This is an exaggeration, but hopefully you get the point. Having a glove with padding is different from having same-size and same-weight solid glove, because some energy is wasted on deformation of the padding.
Lies again? Gloves great for push-ups
