Understanding Pro Boxing Fight Gloves

Pro boxing fight gloves are built specifically for licensed professional bouts. They use compact padding and reduced glove volume to maximise punch accuracy, transfer force efficiently and meet strict weight regulations. These gloves are NOT designed for everyday training and should be reserved for fights or competition-specific work.

8oz vs 10oz Fight Gloves

Pro boxing uses two main glove weights depending on the boxer’s division:

  • 8oz – Used in lighter weight classes
  • 10oz – Required for heavier divisions or by commission rules

Training with your competition-weight glove in the days leading up to a fight helps you adjust to the compact padding and tighter hand fit.

Foam vs Horsehair Padding Types

Puncher’s Gloves (Horsehair)

  • Smaller knuckle profile
  • Less padding volume
  • Sharper punch feel
  • Favoured by heavy hitters looking for maximum impact

Protective Pro Fight Gloves (Multi-Layer Foam)

  • Slightly more padding
  • Better hand protection across rounds
  • More consistent cushioning
  • Common in modern professional boxing

Both glove types meet weight requirements, but the feel varies dramatically.

Correct Use: Fight Prep Only

Pro fight gloves should NOT be used for:

  • Daily bag work
  • Pad drills (outside fight week)
  • Regular sparring
  • General training

They should ONLY be used for:

  • Fight-week pad work
  • Technical drills leading into competition
  • Official professional bouts

Using them for heavy training will quickly damage the padding and change the glove’s competitive feel.

Wrist Fit & Lace-Up Closure

Most professional fight gloves are lace-up because they offer:

  • Maximum wrist stability
  • Even tension along the forearm
  • Precise, secure fit
  • Better alignment of the punching line

This stability is crucial when punches are thrown at full competitive force.
