I’ve got these gloves they’re very nice

[@Northeast_No1]

As soon as you mentioned Joshua it was a no😏

[@agape7838]

Are their hood for sparring, because usually lace gloves are used for sparring

[@FightCentralUK]

Yes, these are specifically sparring gloves

[@alexstdenis514]

You think they would be good for sparring in muay thai?
Thx

[@FightCentralUK]

They're fine for Muay Thai sparring but they are a boxing glove so the wrist is a bit longer and thicker than you might be used to. It's ok but the Thai gloves are more naturally suited for the job

This Vs the Fairtex BGV9 Mexican?

[@FightCentralUK]

It depends on so many things, personally I'm a fan of Thai brands mostly because it's what I'm used to and can rely on the quality. The BGV9 is a slimmer profile however and is a bit easier to handle for pad work, where as this is quite a bulky glove overall and is more suited to long sparring days. That said, the margins are narrow and both are great gloves, you can't really go wrong with either. Although currently I don't have the BGV9 in stock so I should really point you in the direction of the Rival glove haha, but that's not really how we work here. Hope that helps

@@FightCentralUK good stuff, I'll remain patient then! Thank you I appreciate the honesty 😊

These vs Twins Special? Specifically for sparring (pure boxing)

[@Rockycm1]

BGV9 for pad or bag work, cos its too stiff for sparring you can use it only if your sparring partner owes you money, and RS80V for sparring. both gloves are design for different purposes.

Can i use this on bags?

[@FightCentralUK]

Yes pretty much any gloves are suitable on bags although these were designed specifically for sparring. It doesn't really affect your bag work but you shouldn't use bag gloves for sparring if that makes sense?
