    That would depend on how hard the sparring is, but I take your point.

      i used to train with 16 oz gloves but they went **** on me so i thought id try 14 oz gloves, and have been working out good for the last few months. but i thinkin of going back up to 16 oz since it would improve hand speed.

                I train with 14oz gloves on everything. We usually spar with 14oz too.

                  train with everlast weighted gloves - which are 12ozs then plus the weights so their heavy as ****. spar with 16ozs
                  I find any gloves above 16oz are to big of make, and dont fit my hands properly so its hard to clench a fist - i fight arnd middleweight

                    I got a few pairs of gloves. Normally for sparring I would use 16oz gloves(I have Reyes). However theres a defect on my 16s on the thumb and it puts a ton of pressure on it only allowing me to spar without pain for about 2-3 rounds.

                    I got a pair of some Everlast 14oz that are very similar style to the Reyes I normally use. They are very comfertable and I like them alot.

                    For the heavy bag and pads I use 12 oz Reyes gloves.

                    I also have a pair of Everlast bag gloves that I use for the double end bag, I think they are 8oz gloves.


                    I fight at Jr. Lightweight.

                      i use 10 oz for sparring as is par guys who weigh 25 kg+ more than me so its fairer if they use 16's and i use 10's. for bagwork or pads i use thin bag mitts or sometimes 10's
