    Default Sparring Gloves for small hands.

    Hoping that someone could give me some help. I am wondering which brands are more suitable for small hands. I am 5 '6 and 74kg/163lbs but I have very small hands. They are probably about the size of a 13 year old !!
    Can anyone let me know which boxing gloves offer the tightest fit?

    There are children sized boxing gloves available.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    Do they go 12oz and above? All the ones I have seen look very light.

    I've seen 12 oz children gloves. Years ago they used to produce different sizes to accomadate different sizes of hands but that's no longer the case. Nowadays in general with gloves,the less ounces there are, the tighter the fit. I find that the lace up kinds give you a better fit around the wrist.

    Women's boxing gloves are a tighter fit for the hands, that's probably your best bet. I found a link here: http://store.titleboxing.com/title-w...ng-gloves.html

    Thank God for you that on the bright side they have other colors than pink.

    Chavez's hands may have been small, but they were conditioned. This is no doubt because of the hard manual labor that he had done early on.

    That's the one I was thinking of, I don't think they sell them at any any higher oz.

    true,, small hand need to be durable. that small hand , is not pleasant to be hit with. when thrown with the same force its like being stabbed with a knife. Chavez had excellent placement. He would stab to the liver with the precision of a surgeon.


    Part of my early boxing training consisted of , the study of human anatomy. its one of the most fundamental elements of boxing ..

    Thanks LG, you just reminded me about something.
    For a while now I've been meaning to post an artical an article on the subject of anatomy and where to hit. I've even drew a diagram, listed all the thinkable spots where hit legal and otherwise. Included I started thinking and writing down how to set up punches to those spots. There's also many other targets that don't get a lot of attention, the spleen, and to lesser extent the solar-plexus, the heart, and even concentrations of nerves.

    When I first started out I thought the liver could be hit with just a left hook to the right side of their body. As I've found out later on it's mostly protected by the ribs. To really hit the liver you need to drive a left hook under the ribs. Joe Louis and other precision knock-out punchers would do this. Even the floating ribs, and the organs/glands behind them are vulnerable.

    I'll get onto working on the post in the next day or so.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    A quick update.

    I tried a few brands, Windy, Winning and SBS. Winning were extremely comfortable but a bit pricey. I settled on 12 once Windy gloves. Very comfortable fit even with gel knuckle protectors and mexican wraps.
