I do Western boxing and still Yokkao make some of my favorite gloves, up there with Cleto Reyes and Winning. I have a pair of 18oz Matrix in their Island color for sparring, and I just bought another 16oz lace up pair in red for general training and bag work. Really great stuff!
Hi, If you are just doing boxing we would recommend going for a pair of actual boxing gloves. But everyone is different and has their own personal opinions, some people love using Yokkao for boxing and some people hate it. Everyone is different
As these are Thai Boxing gloves we would normally if someone is training in just boxing to go for a pair of proper boxing gloves, however i've known quite a few people who have used yokkao gloves for just boxing because they like them. Everyone will be different and have a different opinion.
@@bigdaddygucciabg836 no i eneded up getting yakkoas.. they where a bit expensive but iv been using them for 2 years 3x a week and there still super good! Theres a small amount of ware on some of the pad where my left middle knuckle is. prob bc im a huge fan on left hooks but yea there mint
@@EnsoMartialArts Other people I train with their yokkaos last about 3 or 4 years. And the velcro will go. Twins the velcro is much more durable. I will only use mine for sparing and not bang them on bags. So they should last alot of years.

They really are!! in our opinion the best Tai Boxing glove there is!
@@EnsoMartialArts 100%, great CS too
How are the lace up vs velcro. Which would you say is better. For majority sparring glove and some bag work w/ them here and there
There's a massive difference between a cleto reyes and a winnings tho 🤔
Hey mate, great review. Just wondering how well you can open your palm and grab for long guard, clinch, catching kicks etc with these gloves?
I’ve just ordered a bunch of yokkao gear came to £230 hopefully it’s worth it 🥊🥊

I weigh 107 kg ( around 240 pounds ) should I get 16 oz or 18 for sparring??? Pls answer thanks
alot of the fighters in the gyms near us would use 16oz but alot of gyms/clubs have different rules.
We would recommend the 16s
@@EnsoMartialArts thank you
I'm 175lb and always spar with 18oz gloves.
Hey am after a pair of yokkao shin guards do you stock them or know where can get them local to Bristol thanks
HI Jake, we can get you Yokkao Shin guards, what style. colour, size do you want. Pop in the shop if you're local and we can get it sorted out
@@EnsoMartialArts hi am not to sure what size I am was hoping you would have some in stock
How do these compare against twins Thai gloves ?
Twins are good gloves, we think Twins, Fairtex and top king are all along the same level, Yokkao are the best Thai Gloves in the world!
@@EnsoMartialArts Thank you!
@@EnsoMartialArts Thank you very much! I seen some reviews weigh up 16 oz twins and there 14 oz. So if I want a 14 oz pair should I get the 16 oz?
Have you tried boon ?
@@bigdaddygucciabg836 no i eneded up getting yakkoas.. they where a bit expensive but iv been using them for 2 years 3x a week and there still super good!

is the inner lining baggy?
Its slightly baggy but you cant tell when they are fully on
I like my lining loose like Fairtex. Is Yokkao liner looser or tighter than that?
how do these compare to the hayabusa t3 lx?
Hayabusa are tying to be more of an all round combat glove, these are Thai Boxing Gloves, this fit of them is very different but both amazing gloves
@@EnsoMartialArtsfor kickboxing, is yokkao better or hayabusa t3? thanks
I've gone for twins
Twins are great, We think Yokkao is the best brand out there
