Just a quick question.
I recently bought a pair of lonsdale gloves only for training purposes mainly for padwork they are 12oz, they feel really good, (good padding havent really worn proper gloves before) and I didnt take too much thought in the weight as they were pretty much one of the last pairs in the shop, Im not a boxer just train, could I use these for sparring If I wanted to? (With a mate)
I've seen loads of different weights of gloves, 8,10, 12,14,16oz.
What weight gloves are used for fights? or is this dependant on actual weight division?
Whats the reason for all the different weight of gloves? I think I know the 16oz ones are used for sparring as they are bigger / more padded? and heavier to use so when you use lighter ones you are used to it.
Think thats it.
Cheers
