are ringside training gloves good for sparring?

[deh707]

i have the ringside imf tech training gloves, 16oz. they are very comfortable/secure, but the striking surface is hard, so i use them on the bag instead of sparring.

has anyone tried the ringside safety training gloves?

what about the ringside international training gloves? (and why does it cost more, and has 1 less layer of foam padding?)

i need to know if the fit/feel of the safety training gloves is identical to the imf tech training gloves, because it fits perfect on my hands.

i have the title training gloves, and they are VERY tight on my hands, impossible to make a decent fist (even without handwraps).

I dont know but Ringside is having a sale where you can get 2 pairs of any any oof their four main training gloves even mixed and matched for $99.00 and Im going to get on that ****.

oh, damn, where did you hear that?

[Animal Squabbs]

in their christmas sale catalog. I am going to get the international training gloves and the IMF tech training gloves for 99. plus the fightgear mexican style headgear and two pairs of Rinside shoes for 14.95 each.


I just dont know if I should get 16 or 18 oz on the gloves, and lap or hook and loop, I like lace up but hook and loop is easier.

[deh707]

oh boy, i had the elastic hook and loop for imf tech training gloves.

it was IMPOSSIBLE to put on the 2nd glove without someone helping you.

the elastic band is too tight on the gloves.

i think it's better to get the lace-ups, with the glove converter
