My Cleto Reyes 12 oz pink velcro has an actual weight of over 17 oz: left 482 grams, right 484 grams. GIL Hybrid 12 oz actual weight over 16 oz: right 462 grams, left 464 grams. Casanova gloves velcro 12 oz is actually weighing more than 14 ounces: the left 412 grams, the right 416 grams. Cleto Reyes Hybrid of size S purple has an actual weight of over 14 ounces: left 396 grams, right 404 grams. Everlast MX Velcro 14 oz was the closest in weight: 410 grams each glove. I apologize for the bad English.
In my experience Mexican gloves tend to run heavier. Reyes being grossly overweight. Recently I’ve noticed other Mexican brands I carry getting closer and closer to label weight. Pakistan gloves are usually spot on or very close. Fly is always close as well. Winning is pin point.
Man, I jabbed the bell button, now my screen is broken 😆 Jokes aside, nice video. Long ago I decided not to waist my money on gear of another brands. Some are overweight, some are overpriced (in case of Grants - both). Only using WINNING - golden standard of boxing gear.
Mine are a little under 16oz - as I say I don’t get too bent out of shape if the gloves are there or there abouts but when a glove is like 3 oz different to the label then it’s like why have they even bothered to put a label on🤷🏻♂️👊🏼👍🏼
Traditional mexican training gloves use a single layer natural latex foam as the padding component (Reyes, Campeon, Casanova). Gloves are cut to a mold, this includes the padding. Given the raw nature of natural latex, the density of the foam can vary, meaning the weight will vary between "identical" sets of gloves. Training gloves which use entirely synthetic padding (which will have a more consistent density) e.g Winning, or even cheaper alternatives such as Top Boxer will be much closer to the advertised weight. Fight gloves, which have horse hair or a horsehair/foam blend have an easier weight control as the leather will be cut and the padding will be weighed and measured to fill the glove appropriately. In reality, in training gloves weight means size.
Yes great information thanks for sharing yes in training gloves to just weigh gloves that say 16oz and expect 16oz in both lace and Velcro is too simplistic an approach - it should be size not oz indicator I agree - because it’s not like Reyes are 2oz bigger and therefore a larger glove as they are a compact glove for sparring , I would love the boxing world to go by size SMALL equivalent to 12oz SIZE not 12oz weight - MEDIUM 14oz SIZE not 14oz weight - LARGE 16oz SIZE not weight - EXTRA LARGE 18oz SIZE not weight, I suspect this would be too much of a massive shift to actually happen, so it does mean that on some gloves the oz indicator is pointless as the oz is no where near the oz label so why is it on there. RIVAL have done this with some of there gloves but it hasn’t caught on. Thankyou for your comment a Great point well made 👊🏼👍🏼
I got Cleto Reyes Sparring Gloves. Bought them at 14oz. The right weighs 17.75 and left is 17.25. Should I consider getting lace ups instead and selling these?
Won't make a huge difference except to your wallet. Only one bang on is 10oz Contests. They say the newer ones are true to weight. Will check my new 14oz to see
****** for the record I don’t have a massive issue with a glove weighing exactly spot on - but if a glove weighs 3oz over the indicated label then what is the point in putting the label on 🤷🏻♂️when it’s clear their has been no attempt to get anywhere near the label weight🤷🏻♂️- again if a glove weighs 15.5 and it’s label is 16oz it’s a little underweight but it’s at least close- I would obviously have a problem if the indicator said 16oz but they weighed WAY under say 12oz that again shows no attempt to match the label*****
I’f what you say is correct about the Velcro straps weighing 1 ounce then I’ve got 4 pair all Velcro strap I’ve weighed them all (cheap salter kitchen digital scales) ringside 14 ounce (13 ounce) right and left. Hayabusa t3 lx 16 ounce (15 3/4 right 15 1/2 left) cleto Reyes sparring 16oz ( 18.2 left 18.8 right) everlast protex 3 bag gloves 16 ounce ( 16 1/2 left 16 3/4 right) so the cheapest and one with the poorest reviews was nearly spot on and the most expensive with the best reviews are really heavy 🤷🏻♂️ also just a side note I’ve got average to small hands for a guy my size I’m 6ft and 220lbs and the cletos hand compartment feels really small ( they are new) I’ve read cletos 16’s hand compartment are really large?
@@markdunstan4240 yes Reyes are really heavy which is strange and out of sync with other brands that are now more accurate with their weights Reyes hand compartment can be a little roomy but this is helped by your Handwraps 👍🏼
Just wanted to ask if you can make a review of the Sanabul gold strike boxing gloves lace up and Velcro if you could!! I think they are great gloves and I would like to heard your opinion!!!
I will be buying a pair of cleto Reyes lace up sparring gloves and was thinking of getting the 16oz gloves (I’m a light heavyweight) but after seeing this I’m wondering will the 14oz labelled gloves be closer to a 16oz in weight and should I go for the 14oz instead?
When it comes to sparring I would always suggest bigger , Reyes are a hard sparring glove as it is - the weight is across the whole glove not mainly on the knuckle area so even though it might be a couple of ounces over I still would go 16oz Reyes for sparring
Isn’t it ironic that we use heavy gloves to protect our partner, but at the same time it is harder to pull it back and thus leading to potentially hurting your partner and yourself (elbow) more? Especially when going light skin touch anyways. You need more power to deliver and pull back a heavy glove than a light glove.
Luk Phom tbf if any other company did this they would be properly slated for quality control but for some reason cleto Reyes seems to have a free pass on it, even me yes I’ve pointed it out but they are still great gloves maybe Reyes will start to get closer to the label oz going forward following videos like this, I think more probably they will just carry on as they are🤷🏻♂️
I just got some 16 oz and they weight nearly 19 oz which sucks, they feel like bucks on the end of my small arms as I’m only in the 50kgs. Did u end up keeping yours
The black ones I recently reviewed were both exactly 16oz in lace so they are probably 15.5 plus laces so slightly under weight but I wouldn’t get bent out of shape being so close to the label👊🏼👍🏼
@@Fit2Box what precision! i was wondering if I should choose adidas adispeed 12 or 14oz, i have decided for 14oz, only for bags training, no sparring I Weight 69kg and i was training boxing for the last 5 years What do you think? o Should I buy 12oz
No because Mexican gloves punch surge face is flatter in most cases the weight is distributed differently a lot of weight in the wrist If any heavyweights have Reyes for sparring at my gym I recommend 18oz not 16oz ( even though they weigh heavier than 18oz)
Late but also no. The glove "weight" of 12,14,16, etc isn't entirely to do with weight, the reason kids get suggested smaller glove sizes is because the hand compartment tends to be smaller on smaller ounced gloves. Except actual fight gloves because they're supposed to have less padding but fit hand sizes bigger. Some companies follow this more and some less.

What other Mexican brands are you referring to?
Yohanes Pradono Bryant Boxing, Gil, Campeón, etc
@@BOXUPNATION what about casanova / necalli?
Yohanes Pradono usually run a little heavier. 2-3 oz usually. Sometimes just an oz over it really depends and varies per glove.
Yeah my red reyes 14 oz weighed 17.5 oz. I literally have no problem sparring with them since they're almost 4 oz over 🤣

Question off topic here🧐
What do you do with all the gloves you rewiev on the channel?
It’s fair to say I own too many gloves👀🤣
Feel you there!😂 building up my own collection even though i only do boxing for fun/fitness😅
steff Hag I genuinely love doing this it’s ace🔥🔥
my winning 16 oz are both just the same weight 15,8 oz .......and my old winning 14 oz weight 15,3 oz ....both lace up
What weight glove is best to get though for heavy bags does it go by your weight? I’m 9 stone do is 12oz best to use?
12 or 14oz would be good at 9 stone
Any idea what the Everlast Powerlocks lace up 16oz weight? Thanks.
My Everlast Powerlocks 16 oz velcro gloves fatally weighed 16.4 ounces.
Say you got a batch of 100 gloves the least you can do is weigh n match hands. Atleast both hands should weigh the same.
Have you ever tried to use a flexbar for your golfers elbow?
Funny you should say that
I have been using one and it has definitely helped 🙌🏼👍🏼
My cleto Reyes 16oz weighed 20oz apprently it is typical for Mexican made gloves to be heavy or cleto Reyes in particular
Yes it is but why put the oz at 16 on the label if they don’t even try to get close 🤷🏻♂️
