Answer 2

Usually you wear 16 oz regardless of weight for sparring

Answer 3

you should have 3 size gloves. 2 are bag gloves. one of the pairs of bags gloves should be real small like 10 oz. this is to practice turning your fist all the way over. they will make you more conscience of how you punch. also they are good for working on speed. secondly you should have 16 oz bag gloves to work on speed and endurance. thirdly you need a pair of sparing gloves which for amateur are usually 16 oz. sparing gloves are different b/c they have extra padding and b/c they have an extra cover to go over the Velcro to prevent cuts.

the most important and best advice you will get is simply to join a boxing gym. don't ever try to train yourself
