MY HAND SIZE FOR REFERENCE
9 1/4 " Wide from side of index finger to side of pinky finger
8" Tall from bottom of palm to top of middle finger
11" Closed Fist Circumference
You should do a comparison of all you Thai style gloves
I’m definitely planning that video
The angular straps are supposedly so that they can give extra wrist support, whilst minimizing cuff thickness and risk of Velcro burns during clinch work.
Nice thank you
the velcro design isn't for aesthetics but it does make it look cool =) it's actually for your sparring partner's protection from velcro scratches when clinching. sometimes your sparring partner can get scratches from velcro on their face and neck.
Thanks 🙏🏼
Nice review. I think these are the same as the bgv5(besides the strap), which is titled as their "super sparring gloves" . I bought the 5s specifically for sparring. But right away, I noticed the lack of padding on the fist / knuckle area. Quality glove. But not what I was looking for, in terms of looking after my sparring partners.
D Phommasa thanks man, I’ll have to try the bgv5, and I agree the knuckle padding is very soft and not the most protective
The best boxing gear reviewer on YT! Carlo, how many days per week do you train? Can you elaborate on your glove rotation? Thanks!
Thanks man I appreciate the kind words, glad you find the channel helpful! TBH, friends and family can attest I train like a madman, 5-6 days a week, road work about 4 days a week. I just love being in the gym and staying sharp. My rotation is just a mixture of gloves I’ve either purchased or was fortunate enough for companies to send me to try out. I typically like bag gloves because I’ve had some tendinitis and wrist problems in the past so I prefer the extra protection
Great review, as always.
These look very durable.
Deym Son thanks man! Yeah Fairtex always makes high quality gear that lasts a long time as long as you maintain them.
Great videos men love your channel! I rather choose the Twins special brand instead of Fairtex. Twins way more protection for your hands and your training partners. But I think fairtex last longer then Twins.
Thanks man!
Twins are too big!
Twins padding is medium to softer while fairtex is being denser
The reason for the angular Velcro is to reduce the potential amount of Velcro exposed to your sparring partner.
👍🏼🥊
The angled velcro is supposed to help with not scratching your opponent while sparring.
Thanks 🙏🏼
@@csquaredboxing no problem dude, keep up the good work!
Great review, thanks man!
🙏🏼🥊
You should review the Windy gloves next. Loved the review, keep it up
Will do and thanks for the support!
I've used those for two years now, the gloves are really comfortable they are still pretty much in very good shape, I really love those gloves but the lack of ventilation holes is a problem, the smell is HOOORIBLE. Avoiding the smell with those requires some work...
Yeah I use Meister glove dogs in mine and just let them sit out and I havent had odor issues. If you just throw them in gym bag right after using is when it gets pretty stinky.
Good review, I use mine for light sparring.
Alexander Giessler thanks man!
In comparison to Raja which one do you prefer?
I prefer these over Raja, a more comfortable glove IMO
Thanks you for this review very usefull!
Thank you
If your like me and prefer a lace up glove get the BGL6. I bought multiple pairs in bangkok in 2017 and only ever used one pair all the way through until I sold them all a couple of months back when I was injured and didn’t think I’d be able to fight again. Now I’m all good and can fight again I’m heart broken I sold them seriously try them.
👍🏼🥊
On mine the layer of foam nearest your knuckles was extremely dense and hard. Someone else online also commented on that in a review of them. It was very uncomfortable and made punching painful. Maybe that's different to yours. Nice thumb and much more space for long fingers than the BGV1 and BGL7s I've had though.
Hmmm that’s really weird, the foam on mine seems soft and not hard at all unless they revised them
@@csquaredboxing maybe mine was an older version.. I got them from www.ebay.co.uk/str/boonjunsports
I had the same issue with the Twins Special, especially when closing my fist it seemed to make the foam put heavy pressure on my middle knuckle. I returned them and got the Fairtex Mexican 16oz, and these have been excellent. They don't have the same amount of padding but I think its important how the glove distributes the force of the impact through the glove and the Fairtex Mexican just seems to take the impact away from the knuckle. Great glove for the money.
How broken feeling compared to bgl3 and cleto reyes ? In terms of opening palm to catch punches. And also how long did you use it before this video , they were brand new ? Cus they seemed very broken when you opened your hand in the video. If its that broken on first use i will buy these. Thanks !
Very broken in when brand new, used them for about 2 weeks prior to making video
Hey Carlo, thanks for reviews.. please which of Fairtex gloves would you recommend for sparring ? BGV9s seems to be too stiff for it and BGV6s too soft, other models look more for a thaiboxing rather than boxing or am I wrong?
For sparring, the BGL3's are a better choice as the padding is more protective for both you and your partner
@@csquaredboxing But BGV5, BGV6 BGV18 are specifically for sparring.
Which fairtex glove would u say is the most like bgv9 punchers glove with hard foam like the bgv9? The inside liner of the bgv9 was rough for me. Are the bgv5/6 too soft for pad/bag work. I’m not sparring
Hey man can you do some raja muay thai gloves bag work video?
Of course, will do!
These fairtex are very sturdy gloves and will last for years. Is the windy coming too?
Windy coming soon!
Carlos Sir. Are this gloves better than the Fairtex F-day green Boxing gloves? And when you hit the heavy bag do they have the same pop as the F-day ?
Phil, quality wise these are better than the f days and feel just as comfortable. Padding wise they aren’t as protective as the f days, however they do have a better pop on the bag, but you sacrifice protection.
I wouldn't use these for bag work. They are made for Sparring. But Pad work should be ok
Is the BGL6 the lace up version of this glove ?
Any difference in the finger compartment between these and the BGV5 Super Sparring?
Thanks for the reviews.
This one is a little more compact
They are true to weight ? I got bgv5 in 10 ounces but they weight 13.2 oz. And bgv6 knuckle area profile is more narrow than bgv5 ?
Can you review the twins bgvl 3 nice reciew and nice glove and compare it to the twins bgvl 3 glove for me the twins is very thick and bulky but the foam is soft but it is so thick and bulky that it is a defensive glove compared to the fairtex bgv6 glove the fairtex bgv3 is a punchers gloves and the twins bgvl 3 is a defensive’s gloves,thanks
Will do!
Привет! Подскажи пожалуйста,какие перчатки Fairtex мягкие по набивке? Какие подойдут для спаррингов?
Great vid! Training kickboxing for over a year now. Im around 185 pounds and want to buy a new pair. I was between the price range of Twins or Fairtex. I'm having some wrist issues from time to time. What would you suggest??
I prefer twins bro
i need to get a new pair of boxing gloves which ones do you recommend, these venum giant 3.0s or fairtex breathable universal boxing gloves? or are there any other gloves you recommend for under 100 euro
Great channel! Are your 16oz BGV6s noticably bigger than your 16oz BGV1s in the knucle area? The reason I ask is because I just got the BGV1 16oz and they're smaller than my Twins 12oz gloves. I'm worried some people gyms will ask me to use bigger gloves for sparring. If the BGV6 is not that much bigger than the BGV1, then I may not purchase it (might have to go with the BGV18 instead). If you could let me know that would be awesome!
I’d say they’re similar in spacing tbh maybe a little larger
@@csquaredboxingThanks!
Great video! How does the BGV-5 compare to BGV-6?
Tbh I can’t answer that because I haven’t used the bgv5 yet. With that being said, the bgv5 is a sparring glove so I’d imagine the padding is better suited for sparring (more forgiving and pillowy) compared to the bgv6 which is more of a punchers glove
@@csquaredboxing Thank you!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t the BGL-6 the lace up version?
Yes it is
Hey for knuckle protection is non puncher gloves better like winning?
Henry no the padding is usually thinner around the knuckle area. This helps with maximum power transfer.
Winning is medium density, for more knuckle protection you want a glove that has denser padding/ typcally bag gloves are usually more protective because of the impact dispersion,
@@csquaredboxing I have to disagree I've owned sabas gloves and I feel winning gloves are definitely more knuckle protective. Please do experiment of you hit a hard wall really hard once and switch to other gloves and do the same. You obviously don't feel knuckle pain because you don't hit really hard on a hard sand heavy bag. RATETHISGEAR
thinks winning have the best at knuckle protection in any glove same as me.
@@csquaredboxing but you need the softness in there to absorb the shock, Winning's hand protection is A+. Fairtex old BGL7s were the most densely padded gloves I've owned, and some of the worst hand protection possible because of how hard it was. I say this as someone with fragile hands and a permanently fractured wrist.
So would these give you an advantage in fights? Im planning on getting the lace up version of them
get the laced 8oz or 10oz . I use them for training with a lace and loop. Great gloves but they tend to tear after 4-6 months constant training from my experience.
When I have them on they feel super light and when I spar people say I hit to hard. Did you had the same thing?
No issues with that, but they are pretty light
I'm 140lbs in weight. Are 12oz the right choice for sparring?
14
Bgv9 or these angular gloves? Thanks!
I still prefer the bgv9, a little more balanced especially with the padding being a little more protective
Would you recommend these or the hayabusa h5 for an all around glove ?
Hayabusa
For someone thats planning to use their gloves for bag work, and occasionally sparring. Pretty much my do it all glove. Which one would you recommend as the better choice, bgv6 or bgv9? Thank you.
Bgv6
I think the angle on the strap is a poor attempt at mimicking Rival's angled velcro system. A lot of brands have adapted the angled strap, and the lace track system that Rival makes. Fly X is n example.
You're probably right, it serves no purpose IMO other than looking different.
With the velcro tapered it's less likely to scratch your opponent in sparring. The gloves are designed for sparring.
Do these have the same finger tip grip bar as the bgv9..
Yes
What would you rate this out of 5?
3 out of 5, especially as a punchers glove
this or bgv-9? mainly for training on bag for big guy
Bgv9
Is the tight fit gloves better?
Not necessarily, depends on how it feels on your hands
csquaredboxing with the hand wraps the original bgv1 fits perfectly
what do you think about bgv5?
They look like nice sparring gloves so the padding is probably a little softer and thicker, I havent tried them yet so couldnt give you my honest take....yet...
Are those legit? Fairtex.com only carries blue and black...
Yes they are, also depends on which company you purchase from as Fairtex sells through 3rd parties as well, not just their website.
How about amazon??? Or do you have an authorized dealer I can purchase??? I contacted Fairtex and they don’t have an authorized dealer here in USA : (
how about these for multipurpose ? bag, sparring....
Bag, mitts, sparring ok, the padding is really broken in however so you have to mindful they’re more of a punchers glove
Are this a good choice over the BGV9?
If you want softer foam yes
Thanks! I saw you did a review on the Pro Mex V2 but there is a Pro Mex V3 too do you know if there is any difference in quality between the two? C
Is the weight of them accurate
Under weight
So I was looking for a pair of 14oz for bag work and partner drills etc, I have a pair of 16oz superiorboxing for sparring.
Do you think I should just get 16oz in these ?
I have the superior boxing gloves, would you say the padding softness is similar to these ??
Superior is denser
Йога для похудения и не услышу ни одного из них мы не будем останавливаться в роли то что ты хочешь но не можем быть уверены что мы не можем сказать что это будет не так как в том числе в будущем не будет
Guys dont use them for boxing they suck
Why??
Is the padding as soft as the everlast mx training gloves?
arveen shah the padding is softer than the Everlast MX
