Sizes
When you’re talking boxing gloves, the “size” is based on the weight and not the fit. Whilst there is no set in stone use for each weight, there are a few general guides that are followed in many gyms throughout the country. Keep in mind that people also vary in size, so glove weight can change based on the weight of the person using the gloves. 16oz gloves are commonly used for sparring. These provide protection for both your hands and the opponent. For bag work, it’s common to see women using 10-12oz and men 12oz.
