Grapping gloves with the most padding?

My buddy and I wish to train with full force sparring. We want to train, not break eachothers faces, so we're looking for the gloves with the most padding. I am debating between the SSF shooto glove or the Fairtex NHB Sparring glove. Which one has the most padding and thus will protect the other guys face the most? Thanks in advance guys!!

full force with gloves is still gonna get someone hurt...

I'd go with SSF / Ouano Shooto style gloves, more padding than Fairtex ones.

we go at about 60/70% with the CSI IMF gloves and they still hurt.

I still back the Hawks 10oz MMA gloves. Don't think any other glove has as much padding...

I had the ouano shooto gloves and a couple of the guys that I trained with said I caught them with some good shots and it didn't really hurt. I'm guessing not anymore than a boxing glove. But the gloves had some quality problems and I exchanged them for some SSF shooto gloves. I haven't received them yet, but I expect the padding will be similar but the glove should be better made.

I saw a video of team quest just use boxing gloves while doing the GnP and MMA striking. That may be an alternative. I mean people still get busted up with 16 oz. gloves, but if I had the choice, I'd perfer 16 oz. to 6 oz. I mean we all train to fight. Theres no use of getting busted up in training and then fighting injured.
