I would like to ask you all if you know a good place to find good grappling gloves.
I have seen u have a link to the UFC gloves on this MMA forum, and would like to know if they have thumb guards....

If not do any of you know where i can get good quality grappling gloves with thumb guard also..

Thank you
Yours Sincerely
Tino

I have a pair of these I use to train with. Just get a size larger than you think you'll need. I got a medium and they're tight.

Thx Curly very much appreciated...
I would just like to kno if those gloves have a thumb guard... i.e. is their padding over the thumb..
Also how tall-heavy are you, just so i can have an idea on my size

Thank You
Tino

That should help you. I wear a medium in those gloves and a large in the century gloves.
I'm 5' 9" and fight at 145 lbs and my hands are about average for my height.

i don't like century anyway. too thin.

get official shooto gloves! They are great gloves and last FOREVER but they run about $130.

or Pride gloves you can get for about $50 if i remember right.

He needs a padded thumb. Those gloves don't have thumbs.
