**** everlast. period.

trust me, you porbably dont have smaller hands than I do. Many girls and some 10 year olds have bigger or same sized hands as I do. I am about same height and weigt as you are. I have used everything from title, ringside, cleto, winning, twins, etc.. and with a good handwrap, your hand will feel right at home. THe only thing is the title ones are loose on us not because we have smaller hands but title gloves tend to have so much more handspace than almost every other glove around. I say shell out a bit more money and get better gloves that potect you better and last longer. Dont skimp on the cash with equipment because they are like an investment on your tools

Thanks for the tip man, i'll definitely keep the ringside gloves in mind for sure. How do you think they would be room wise inside the glove for a person with a smaller hand such as myself? I've always been curious about the gloves that ringside made but havent really had a chance to try any on.. but your review has made me even more curious.. i'm still leaning toward the cleto reyes bag gloves that i posted from above, so for any of those whom have had experience with them, could you give me a mini review or rundown on how they were for you? i've been given alot of great choices.. if only i had a shop here to try them all on

im sure you are worrying a little too much about the size of your hands. any well made glove will fit your hand.

Cleto reyes is a very good brand also, although ive never tried them i hear very good reviews. i also hear theyre more of a "puncher's" glove, supposedly you can feel the punch a little more which probably just has to do with the way they manufacture the padding in the knuchles. either way reyes is a reputable brand that makes good products. if you want to try them out, go for it.

it can, but why? sparring is about safety and learning. you dont want to break your sparring partners nose. go with atleast 16 oz. it is safe for your partner and vice versa. sparring isnt competition, there is no need for 12 oz and less gloves.
