Amazing video! This is the most comprehensive guide on MMA training gloves on the internet. You explain things in a way that get your point across perfectly which speaks of high intelligence. Thank you for this, I was deciding on which MMA training glove to buy, and I'll be probably buying the the Hayabusas.
@@Tacit_Tern I haven't used them a huge amount, as I prefer the venum for sparing, but they feel really well put together. Good quality synthetic will often out last leather. I've got a mate who uses these for sparing full time and for his Amateur bouts, they hold up very well. Yeah the size guide said I should get the small and they fit really well.
@@taichiworld hi bro, the hayabusa have good wrist support? When I started training I hit the bags with all my strength, a big mistake, now I hit with less power, my knuckles are unharmed, I suffered more with my wrists, does the double velcro work? thx
Gidday Eli . The fairtex you really want are the Fairtex super sparring gloves FGV18 model . In conjunction with a face bar helmet you can really spar with each other and take shots .
Those are the ones I have in the video. I’ve tried several face bars, I prefer getting punched in the face. I find the face bar give more shock to my neck, maybe because you get hit before you expect to. Plus you get hit more as you’re giving the other guy a few more inches of reach advantage. If they work for you then great, but I much prefer using a thicker glove. My favourite now is the combat corner MMA spar glove. This has now become the official glove of the wtba. I’ll do a review and f those soon 😊
@@taichiworld yep your correct, they looked like the Fairtex sparring ones . I’m blind . My boys do mma and are in love with the helmets etc . Cheers mate , hope you are well
Would like to see a reviews of all thoses brands and the Combat corner mma spar gloves !! The combat corner does have a good amount of padding too it. Would definitely like seeing them in there for a review
@@taichiworld Hell yea thanks brother !! Can't wait to see the result i have heard by a lot of peoples that theses gloves are the best and they look really well protected, happy that you tried them on and love them too can't wait for the review.
Hello, thank you so much for this review. Any new MMA gloves that are really good for grappling but nice for punching (sparring with enough forcing but not being dangerous for the practise mate )? thanks!
Not sure how new they are, but my favourites now which have become my club standard are the Combat Corner MMA Sparing Glove. I'll be doing a review of these soon, they are above and beyond the best.
Yeah I like the look of those, but they are made from animals which goes against my ethics. My favourites now though are the Combat Corner MMA Sparring Gloves. So much so that they have become our official glove. Just had shipment of 50 sets, with custom logos, and it looks like I'll need to place another order soon 🙂 I'll do a review of those soon. SO awesome for sparring, better protection than the Venoms, but smaller so they get in the way far less.
@@taichiworldI just ordered a pair of the combat corner in L/XL and the strap around the palm feels way tooo tight and it doesn’t stretch out for me. It looks like the stitching is about to rip at the ends of that strap. I love them but wish they fit. My hands are not fat either. They are slim
@@jacedragon Wow you must have big hands then? As they fit all my students, some of which have much bigger hands than me. I actually fit nicely into the Small size, which I would use but there is a lot less padding over the knuckles, so I'd have to go much softer with those. I've just tried on the Venum to compare for you, the venum M is about the same fit on me as the Combat Corner L/XL, but the venum L/XL is considerable larger, so that should fit you well. The only reason I prefer the CC over the Venum is because they have the same thickness of padding but with a much narrower profile, so it's closer to the size of a bare fist. But if it's to small then the Venum would be great for you :-)
@@taichiworld thank you. I love the CC and I always thought I have medium sized hands with slim fingers. Even my feet look slim and long but most shoes are too narrow lol. The sales person at CC said to send them back just to make sure they weren’t mislabeled. He saw a pic of them on my hands and said the same thing you said about my hands must be huge haha. If they are in fact the correct L/LG size I’ll check out the venom ones. Also do the finger and palm strap on the CC stretch out over time? That’s the only area that doesn’t fit my hand.
@@jacedragon Yes, I just tried on the pair I use and a new pair, the new ones are a lot tighter, though still not overly tight on me, so from what you’ve said they might still end up being too tight. Mine got to this level of stretch after maybe two hours of use.
I'm not the best person to answer that question. I don't believe in wearing gloves for bag work. We should be learning how to hit with our bare hands so we can fight in self defence. But if you really want to, then none of these, get something with far less padding.
With the venom, given the wrist wraps and the difficulty opening your hands, how much sensitivity do u loose, say if you were trying to bridge and do chi sau style of things as well as open hand blocking that involves wrist movement.
At first it feels quite horrible if you're not used to gloves, but once you get use to the feeling its really not bad at all. You do lose some sensitivity, I find I get hit a little more, but from a physical point of view I can pretty much do everything I would usually do. What I like to do is warm up with out gloves, then get rougher with them, then take them off again to cool down, best of both worlds then. I prefer now using the small size, its enough padding to make training comfortable, but not so bulky like the Large ones. Unless you wanted to hit really hard the padding on the S is fine.
@@taichiworld thanks that's exactly what I wanted to know. I have recently started doing sparring in both kickboxing and ba gua. I was using MMA gloves which r pretty nasty to get hit with, yet I can only describe full boxing glove as being the equivalent of being blinded. Have ordered a pair of the venom, so hopefully will be a decent compromise.
@@kyemalk6328 Awesome 👌 let me know how you go with them. Did you see my other video with the elbow pads? I like to always include elbows in my training, even a light touch strike with the tip of the elbow on the back of the jaw is horrible, so these allow a kittle more freedom.
Thanks for the comparison, buying MMA gloves is a bit of a nightmare. There's surprisingly little info out there. Do you think the Hayabusa gloves would be fit for MMA sparring? Is there enough padding for your partner, or should I find something with more padding (e.g. the venum gloves)? Thanks!
All depends how hard you want to hit and how hurt you want to get. The Hayabusa will protect you the most under full contact, since the padding is more dense. But as a trade off, any lighter strikes will hurt way more than with the venum. Personally when I spar I don't hit my partner as hard as I can, so the venums are best. I like using the small sized ones. Of course you could use the Hayabusa and just not hit too hard, that way you get the nice open hand glove. I'm going to do another video with a few different gloves where I will get someone to punch me in the face, so you can see how much each glove hurts me.
hi, do you think that the protection of the wrist in the hayabusa is good? when I hit very hard sometimes there is a little pain in the wrist, thx for the video
I'm not sure, since I don't like wrist support, I wear the strap loose. If you're hurting your wrist when punching a heavy bag, you should look at your technique rather than support. A friend of mine uses these in competition, though I would assume he also wraps his wrists.
@@taichiworld thx for you answer, a question, the hayabusa you have are size S? I read several reviews that indicated that they came small, according to the size chart I am M but I am thinking of ordering L, thx
That was in Australia from an online store. I can't remember which one now as I was ordering so many different things from a lot of different stores at the time.
@@taichiworld for mma sparring I think they are worth it because of that hammer fist pad (knife hand) pad and the extremely thick soft padding over the knuckles I feel like I could spar with more intensity and power without hurting my training partners
I personally never used gloves on the heavy bag, I don't see the point. But if you do prefer using gloves then yes I see no reason why they wouldn't work very well on the bag. Though I think it would be a bit of a waste of money, since a bag glove has a very easy job, you could get something for half the price that would do just as good a job.
Top boxer heavy bag mitts are great for the heavy bag. I’ve been using them for about a month now and I highly recommend them. Before that, I was using the ringside sbg. They were okay and maybe fine for beginners, but the top boxer ones are so much better to me now. Bag gloves are great because you can drop some hard bombs on the bag. Bare hands is also good to condition, but you can’t throw super hard punches without some risk of injury. Also, I always recommend that people not use whatever gloves they use on the bag for sparring. I do my best to have gloves that are not going to hurt my sparring partner. That’s just a d*** move to me to want yo hurt your partner. Good luck to you finding something that works for you.
@@user-bp5tg3yd3d you’re very welcome. I’m glad you are doing research. There are so many people that go to the gym I train at that could use so much help and it doesn’t seem that they do much research. I am happy to help anyone that I can. How long have you been training?
The reason why MMA gloves are starting to become curved is to reduce the amount of eye pokes, Karate Combat uses curved gloves that are pretty nice.
The kind of video I’ve been looking for, thank you!!

How are those hayabusas holding up? I was thinking about springing for the natural leather model. Did they order to size?

Helmets give you a false sense of security and you take more shots overall.

Yeah they look very similar to the venum ones I've got.
Id like to try out a pair.

But first impressions, best I've used.

Great video! Q: What size is your hand in inches mate? Mine is almost 9 inches (8.8) going with the sizing guide not sure to go with M or L
Thanks mate.
My hand is about 8.3 inches

That was in Australia from an online store. I can't remember which one now as I was ordering so many different things from a lot of different stores at the time.
Can the Venum ones be used for heavy bag? I'm planning to buy the Venum pair.
I don’t recommend ever using gloves in the bag.
But if you wanted too you could, though I would recommend something with denser padding.
The Isami mma sparring glove made in Japan may be more protective. I just ordered the venum you have tonight
Yeah I like the idea of the padded knife edge, double the price, so they'd want to be worth it.
