I'm glad you like the gels they just didn't feel right to me. They also seemed heavier than the 14 oz the were suppose to be. I don't mean they actually weighed more but they just felt heavy on the hands, I think the balance of the glove was off because of the weight of the gel. I did some shadow boxing with the gel's prior to shipping them back and they just never felt right to me. But again I've spent at least the last 7 years in a pair of the internationals. THe IMFs on the other hand balance a little better but are still a little tight. The Gels weight is forward of the hand making them seem heavier than they are.

I've only put about 10 rounds of actual contact sparring on the IMFs so I'm not sure how they will feel long term. I also have yet to be seriously hit with the IMFs but by saturday I'll find out. Then I will post a full review of the IMF's compared to the Gels or Intenernationals.
