    I got the facesaver headgear recently. I love it, it's one size fits all but it fits me perfectly, but i have a big head, i can see somebody with a smaller head having it move when they get punched.


    I have been boxing for a long time and always used just normal sparring headgear with no face bar.


    Man should i have bought one earlier.

    Got my nose broken once in the past and i didn't want it to happen again so i got this headgear, love it.

    Though it feels like cheating a little bit, i barely feel some of the punches.

        The everlast face saver, not the yellow and black one, it's all black, i guess it's the older model.

        If you have a small head i suggest you try one on before buying because like i was saying it may move when you get hit in sparring. Facebar is nice, but you don't want the headgear to me loose, cause if you get punched and the bar snap back on your nose it's gonna hurt much more than a simple punch to the nose would have.

          I would go with the fightgear one. I have there amateur headgear and thats already really protective and high quality. also I really dont trust everlast.

            yes ive had bad experiences with everlast. the only thing i like about them are the casual clothes they make.

              Actually the rating for the Everlast was great. I agree, I don't like Everlast unless it's top quality stuff but this one get's really good reviews.

              I don't use full face guards and probably should, my nose would look better at this stage in my life.
