Obviously when your making a fist with a bare hand you bend the thumb under the joints.
But when wearing a glove, is this necessary? I mean, the way the glove is, you can't bend the thumb that much as it is. Whenever I do it long enough my palm starts to cramp up.
So my question is is it OK to relax your thumb (i.e. leave it sticking straight out) when punching? It doesn't protrude out or anything, the knuckle part still sticks out further
