Hello all... quick question about standard weights for gloves...
when I did just straight up Golden Gloves boxing... 16oz was the minimum, as that was regulation weight for all fights and if you were really seriouse about training, you got the 20oz and for the fight would wear 16s.. as far as I know anyway..... only the lower weight classes used anything lighter than 16s..
is it the same in muay thai..? I was thinking about getting some Windy gloves but when I looked they only came in 8oz and 10oz weights... is that normal..? that doesn't sound like alot of padding... I would think if I was sparring in 10oz gloves I would break some guys face or something.. I dunno.... maybe I'm way off base here..
just hoping someone could clue me in as to whats regulation weight for muay thai gloves?? I want something that I can use for bag work, sparring and competition if that makes it any easier to make a reccomendation. an all-round training glove if you will...
thanks for the info..
Best,
Kokoro
edit- these were the ones I was talking about..
