What type of Boon glove

What glove should I get? Lace up? Classic? Or compact?
I already have these red bgl6 gloves but I feel like a terrible training partner whenever I use them as they’re pretty firm. I also got these shinguards for $60 on offer up and am looking to complete the set. Idk what kind of gloves I should get primarily for sparring. The red gloves I’ll use on days where I’m focusing on clinch work. For the Boon gloves I want to be able to punch knowing that they’re pretty padded. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

My current glove collection

Prize ring "professional ss" 14oz
Paffen pro speed 16oz
Rival rfx guerrero hde-f 16oz
Everlast mx pro boxing gloves 10oz XL
+topboxer alien 14 oz (not included in picture)

My honest take and opinions on these gloves differ, the prize ring’s are incredibly soft, with an amazing thumb placement and padding, i use these gloves mainly for bag and mitt work. I would say these were my favourite overall.

Same goes for the paffen pro speed which i generally use for technical sparring and they have been great, while the only downside being the lack of wrist protection.

The rival Rfx guerrero hde-f’s havent actually been to use yet, due to me saving them for a hard sparring session which i havent been participating in yet due to health issues across this year, but they feel amazing, very stiff but thats probably due to minimal break in.

The everlast pro mx’s are amazing on the hand, i bought the XL ones because i want to be able to use these regularly without getting a sore palm which is usually my issue with snug gloves, and it worked out fine. I havent used them that much due to my hands being a bit fragile due to me having moved up in weight alot so i usually have that issue right now with every 8-12 oz gloves i try, and im not big either, but i moved up from 54kg->63kg in 3 and a half months.

The alien topboxer’s in 14oz, these were amazing in the beginning, minimal break in and generally a good feel, but the thumb placement is a bit off, and has caused me to get pain in my thumb if i accidently punch a little bit off course.

Hope this helps, and ask me about anything related to these gloves if your curious!

Best MMA Sparring Gloves?

Hey everybody, hope you guys are doing well. I was making this post because i was curious what you guys think are the best MMA sparring gloves? Ive been boxing for the last 6 years and know every brand head to toe but being new to MMA I'm not too sure. Every UFC fighter and MMA celeb is constantly repping their sponsor so Im not sure what to go with. Im mainly in between ONX, Yibuko, Venum 3.0s, and Sanabuls. Ive heard the most out of these respected pairs and would love to hear your guys feedback!

Got scammed

Was supposed to get white winning gloves after I paid 225$ and he supposedly didn’t get them and I already had a feeling he was lying so he asked me to get a 100 dollar gift card and I did and sent it to him and now i feel dumb because it was a dumb thing to do. I checked his account and I got blocked today

New Colors!

Hey guys!

Just wanted to let everyone know I’ve released some new colorways on the website! They’re available now, and Velcro gloves are officially out as well.

I’m also experimenting with a flat cuff design after a customer requested it. I ended up ordering some extras because I actually really like how they turned out, so those are available too if anyone wants to give them a try.

After fulfilling pre orders, I’m down to 3-5 pairs for these new colors. So if you want one feel free to place an order or message me!

As always, I’d love to hear your feedback. Thanks to everyone who’s supported the brand so far—it really means a lot!

Advice/Help with these customs.

Has anyone ordered customs with Spartacus? I just want to know what the process is like after placing the order. Do they contact you with a draft or anything like that?

Choosing Sparring Gloves

I’m looking to buy a 16 oz pair of gloves for sparring, and I’m torn between the Rival RFX-Guerrero HDE-F and the traditional Cleto Reyes Training Gloves, both lace-up. Which one would you choose, and why?

Does anyone know a decent site to buy/sell second hand equipment on?

Somewhere you can buy secondhand or new training equipment which isn’t vinted.

Current collection review

1.	Everlast (Latest model) 1910 16oz  
2.	Guerra 16oz  
3.	Messenger XMT 3.0 10ozXL  
4.	Kings County 16oz  
5.	Seyer 14oz  
6.	New Sporting HH 16oz  
7.	Bayoneta PuLat 16oz

9.	Reap of Faith Super Samurai 16oz  
10.	Reap of Faith Super Samurai 12oz  
11.	Spartacus Sparring Model 16oz

Been healing a shoulder injury so I’ve been off my routine but when I’m at 100%, I train 4-5 times a week. 1-2 days doing partner drills and sparring and session with coach 1x a week.

My favorites are the Reap of Faith Super Samurai 16oz for sparring, Bayoneta PuLat for all around, New Sporting HH on pads, Messengers on pads and technical bag work, most surprising were the Seyers and the Guerras, Everlast I didn’t like at first but they’ve grown on me, ROF 12oz and Kings need more break in but I love the feel, most excited about the Spartacus for sparring I haven’t gotten to work much with them yet but I should be back training harder in the next week.

Also Waiting on my Cheguis, very psyched to finally grab a pair.

**EDIT the number is not rating btw, I was just naming the gloves in order**

Brands Manufactured in Pakistan

Just wanted to drop some of my favorite brands that are manufactured over in Pakistan. I know this sub is BIG on MX gloves and boutique brands made in their respective countries, and so am I, that would make up the majority of my collection. I'm curious to what brands/models of gloves that you like that are made where 90% of gloves are currently made?

Gloves top to bottom, left to right:

  1. Rival Guerrero HDE-F

  2. Messenger XXQ

  3. Guerra Boxing

  4. Spartacus Old School

  5. Reap of Faith Super Samurai

  6. Reap of Faith AGOW

  7. Brothers Fight Co. Kuzuri

  8. Brothers Fight Co. Achilles

All of these gloves are different in their own way and excellent for training. Ask questions if you have any. What are your favorites?

Any reviews on Bayoneta MX horse hair gloves? Would be only for hitting mitts.

Wanting to get some 10-12oz gloves solely for hitting mitts. Do these offer good hand protection and will last?

Beginner looking for gloves. Is it worth going for the expensive gloves right away?

I am not sure what brand to pick, I did Muay Thai for 6 months(once a week) 5 years ago and used Fairtex. Now I go to a bjj gym and another (not Muay Thai) boxing gym but do plan to transition to MMA. Coach says 16 oz training/sparring gloves. Any brands or models that you recommend? Should I break the bag from the beginning or what?
