Recommended gloves for me?

[BG_Knocc_Out]

I've been training with the oh so terrible Everlast Aerobic gloves that you buy at the local ****s, and with lack of money, I haven't been able to buy me some good equipment. I've been using those gloves for almost 2 years, and my gym is cheap **** so the only gloves they have for us to use is the ****ty Aerobic gloves. But first I need some gloves, because I've been having terrible wrist problems in both arms, but especially in my left, which is my stronger hand, so I figured it'd have something to do with boxing. I'm 120 lbs, and 5'7, (if that matters) and hit harder for my size, so I've been told Reyes are good for that combination? But I'm not to sure because of lack of experience with other gloves. I've been looking at some brands lately like Fighting, Rival, Pro-Mexand the Title Gel line, but it's hard for me to choose without some recommendations, because, like I said, I have lack of money and spending 100 bucks on gloves that I have doesn't help. Also, if there is more equipment you recommend, I'll be glad to take it into consideration because it's not just gloves I'm looking for.

Mitts, bagwork, just training gloves, not sparring, unless it doesnt matter.

Before all the kiddies with rich parents come in and tell you that you absolutely need winning or cleto reyes glove because they have some, i'll tell you, i tried nice amount of brands: ATF, Everlast, Grant, Title, ect. And i must say so far the best gloves i ever had are rival gloves, i have had them for over a year and they are exactly like when i bought them except, and before that i went through a pair ever 6 months or so. Plus they offer great protection.

Check out the bag gloves, i have the RB1 bag gloves and RS1 sparring gloves. Love them.

They aren't that expensive, the RB1 are like 70-75 us.

Thanks man, I'm really digging the look of the Rival gloves, but I didn't want to buy them just because they look cool, you know? Do you know if they ship to the US off their website? I'm on the Title website but they don't have the color I want, they just have plain black, where as the Rival website has them.

That is taken straight from their website, so yes they ship all over the world. I have a friend in the us that ordered them without any problem. It should be the same for sweden.

And fuddoh: It depends on your size, the largest bag gloves they make are 14oz, i always used 16 before but rival's 14 oz offer more protection than any 16 i ever used, they are as big 16's, just lighter.

I'm a heavyweight and the 14's are fine, these gloves are heavy duty. So yeah, if you're anything above 175 i would suggest 12 or 14. I have some rather large hands even the 12 fitted perfectly. If you are a lighter guy i would say either 10 or 12 if you have some large hands.

And for BG_Knocc_Out: I say 10 oz would be perfect for you.

I recently bought some Fighting 12 oz training gloves. I liked everything about the gloves except that for some reason my hand was so uncomfortable in the pocket and I have small hands so I'm sending them back. I'm leaning for an exchange for the Rival Elite bag gloves(unfortunately title only offers them in 12 oz) or the RS1 or RS2 12 oz sparring glove. I will not use them for sparring as I have a 16oz Grant for that but I will use them for some bag work, pads, etc. Technique stuff. Is there a big difference from their bag and sparring glove. How well will the sparring gloves hold up if I get those. I'm looking for the smallest most comfortable and well padded glove. Fighting was great on all except the comfort. I really dig thoose Rival Pro sparring gloves and since title doesnt have the bag gloves in 10 oz im leaning that way. Am I wrong? Also how bulky are the two gloves compared to others?

Yea, one of my main problems is my hands seem to not fit so well in the glove because my hands must be small. I'm not able to make a full fist comfortably. Any solution? Would I have any problems with the RB1's in that case?
