Question

Me and my friends are thinking about like boxing each other, we are 15 and we all like boxing, weve already had a couple of fights and we used these youth fun gloves but when we fought last time someone got a bad cut and a black eye, and im asking if you know if there are like boxing gloves that are softer or something that is not gonna hurt someone badly or hurts someones hands thanx for your answers.

Answer 1

stop sparing with your friends and go to a boxing gym where you will train and learn how to protect yourself so you don't get black eyes. if you and your friends wanna spar then do it in a boxing gym where if someone by chance does get hurt no one will get sued. for your training equipment go to ringside.com where you can find some quality stuff.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Try headgear, or before ya box put a little vasaline around your eyes and chin.

Answer 4

larger size gloves 16oz or larger

Answer 5

I know these youth fun gloves, they are c**p. Their padding is not designed for fighters in your age and not designed to prevent injury. I recommend you to buy "real" boxing gloves. You should go for quality, if you don't you should at least get thick padding. 12 or 14 oz should be enough to prevent any further injury. My personal favourites are the 10 oz  Ringside amateur competition gloves.They're great and I use them myself. (Effect without injury, to sum up).

But in any case: USE A MOUTHGUARD !!!

P.S.: I don't share the common love for 16 oz gloves, because they're too bulky and there's really no chance to get any effective punches to your opponent. I don't like injuries but this is boxing... you should at least feel a bit of the punch.
