I think that at least part of the reason all these OG champions used thin bag gloves Is that with less padding it’s easier to “feel”your own punches on the heavybag. Which in turn makes it easier to evaluate and correct your punching mechanics , while at the same time having enough protection to train with appropriate volume and frequency. I think a clear example would be knuckle allingment: big padded gloves make it difficoult to gage wether you are diong it right or not, thinner gloves will make it significantly easier.

Shhhhh ! Don't give the answer to everyone...
Five stars for you as I could not of stated my opinion any better* It's about the study of precision... Knuckle on a pimple not a 16 once glove on 100 pound Punching Bag.
I have utilized this type of glove for more than 50 years and what you said in your comment is exactly why !
Sincerely

PunchProfessor
Thank you very much!
My first coach made me use small gloves for the heavybag work, sadly i did not keep the good habit after i changed gyn; i will make sure to correct that in the future.
I’m also hoping to get my hands on a speedbag soon , so that i can start practicing some of the training methods you showed on this Channel!
Keep up the great work and stay safe!
Sincerely, Eugenio.
PunchProfessor hi buddy
Great channel, I use driving gloves and cut the finger ends off , I put a few strips of zinc tape on my knuckles underneath
Bob Fitzsimmons would use kit gloves and cut the finger ends off
Great old speckled Bob
It teaches you to land the punch correctly
Conditions your hands correctly
And it’s great 👍🏼

Eugenio! Thank you very much for the information. That was very cool. I have a pair of bag mitts. I hope they don't deteriorate before long.
I think it encourages you to snap your punches. I met Ali in the 90’s. I didn’t know what to say so I didn’t say anything and just shook his hand.

Thanks for Watching, and for the interesting comment !
In the 1990's Ali was still pretty functional so it must have been nice to visit with him. I learned to appreciate him more after his career was over. Mostly because my view of the world came more into line with his as I got older. As I said I have a bunch of memories that I treasure today, which back in the day was no big deal!
Sincerely Appreciate You

Ali came to my city when I was about 6/7 yrs old which was 91/92!!! Literally our ENTIRE CITY showed up… my dad had me on his shoulders and Ali hugged and kiss my sister on the cheek, my dad yelled at Ali “aye champ, don’t you be kissing my baby” lol Ali looked at him and said “That CANT be your baby, YOU WAY TO UGLY” lmao then smiled and winked at my dad… I’ll never forget that, that’s the only time I saw my dad even KINDA star struck!!!
Only pair of gloves i own are thin old school bag mitts. Precision, hand conditioning, wrist conditioning, tendons and ligament conditioning, punch feed back. Knuckles become solid and you learn how to punch like a mule with fists like marble. Great video sir. Thank you.
Nice
I was thinking about an old photo of Dieselnoi Chor Thanasukarn wearing thin bag mitts posing with his belt while watching this video. I asked my coach if I should punch with bag mitts and he said ABSOLUTELY! He says they teach you which part of the knuckle to hit with, strengthen your fist, and allow you to train all the parts of the hand needed to throw powerful punches consistently, safely, and with power. I'm gonna get me some today! Looks like I do know a bit of sh-poop about boxing now! Thanks Punch Professor!
In Italy we ALWAYS use this kind of gloves for heavy bag training. In EVERY serious boxing gym
@@Happyjackmusic222 you suppose to be funny? Should I laugh?
People who run with their shoes on all the time, don't realize how weak their feet are until they try it barefoot. The less sole your shoes have, the better relationship you have with the CNS and foot mechanics. The thinner padding will make you be more mindful of proper hand contact. God bless!

I've never owned bag gloves. I subscribe to the "Asian" conditioning from the beginning theory.
This video reminded me of when I started training at 10. I went and got a pair of mitts the next day- back to the basics 20 years later. Thanks coach
Great channel... your giving gems all the time. I did some amateur boxing in the late ‘80s... the truth is I don’t know when this hitting of the heavy bag with sparring gloves started. I spent 30 years in the martial arts; I tell my kids... spend a lot of time dancing with that heavy bag... it will teach you a lot. Pivoting at the feet, torque at the hips...etc... thin gloves will condition your weapons... and teach you to properly land a punch. Great channel

The big bag gloves started in the mid to late 1970's
There were a few changes in Boxing in the 70's and 80's that was Old School before, and now is the new, and NOT improved school...
True
Paul D'
@@PunchProfessor I can relate, I started hitting the bag with sparring gloves too, 16 oz but now I know to use smaller gloves, I now use 12 oz gloves but I’m gonna grab those old school gloves🥊
The believed truth behind the Heavy bag gloves was designed for Punching accuracy and also help with technique. Not just throwing punches but rather the proper technique in Not only throwing a punch but knowing how to snap the wrist right while getting behind your punches and also helps with power punching aswel.
Understand with this type of glove is if you Punch the bag wrong you truly feel it in the wrist.
Hence why the fundamentals of the punching bag use less padding so you can improve wrist control aswel as getting the body behind the punches for more power.
All the greats named in this video were some of the greatest display of power punching in there time💯

I've used those bag gloves to hit the bag for a very long martial arts career. I like them because they make my hand feel secure, tight, and one strong unit as I squeeze the metal bar they have inside. I can also concentrate the striking force on my middle and first knuckles through the thin but sufficient layer of material. I think they also strengthen my wrist with use.

Now I know I’m on the right track, thanks to you .

I use 26 to spar but 10oz pro fight gloves to train everything with. Just make sure they are quality and have adequate padding.
Thinner glove = greater potential for accuracy and finesse in training. There is a more finely tuned sense of touch and energy transfer.
In my chunky bag gloves, I have a hell of a time figuring out where I'm landing on my knuckles, or even if I'm landing on my knuckles at all!

True
Paulie D' The Punch Professor
In my humble opinion, bag mitts teaches you to punch properly and develop important bio mechanical habits while punching for an extended period of time.
I always felt that you must take more responsibility and be more sensitive on how to time and grip your fists to protect your hands when using the traditional bag mitts. This also conditions your knuckles and wrists to meet the rigorous demands of the sport.
Sparring gloves offer protection for the opponent, bag mitts protect your hand. You can go ham on the bag with bag mitts a lot more than with traditional gloves - better protection for knuckles. At least that is my experience
This is probably the only video out there that actually answers this question, thank you!!

Can you talk to us about the crouched off centre posture of fighters like Joe Louis and Rocky Marciano?
Particularly because Joe Louis is still regularly described as having the most perfect technique in boxing history by pretty much all highly experienced world class coaches.
But louis' technique doesn't seem to have been copied by anyone, despite the technique looking extremely efficient as Louis barely even moved during his fights.
And guys like Marciano never get described as having great technique to be imitated.

I love to hear the great old names come up Paul. Archie Moore I think he rates at the top. He was so knowledgeable dedicated and tough his fight against Yvon Durelle was extraordinary.
It's said by those who were around at the time, that Ray Robinson was at his very best as a light weight. I think though there is very little if any footage of Robinson to prove it, but he never fails to amaze me in any case.
One of Joe Louis' great fights was his first title defence against Tommy Farr. Farr brought his very best that night, they bruised each other up something terrible. At the end of every round they touched gloves out of mutual respect.
I think the most harrowing fight I ever saw was Muhammad Ali vs Joe Frazier Manilla 1975. Some things you can't forget.

Was sitting ringside back when, had Mike Spinks in the chair next to me on my left as he was there to watch a fighter he was managing.
Spinks was very nervous much more than his fighter who was fighting his tenth or 12th pro fight. Every round Spinks would ask me who I thought won the round. The fellow on my right would lean over me and add his two cents to the conversation. Well the fighter was Bernard Hopkins and the guy on my right was Archie Moore.
Hopkins won almost every round ! ! ! What fond memories, there ain't nothing like Boxing. I watch this video, and my eyes get watery !

@@PunchProfessor At ringside with Moore and Spinks, what a wonderful experience, I wish I could have had that privilege. Archie Moore came to Australia long, long ago. He beat all our fellas. There was another American too Freddy Dawson, went to Australia, he beat all our fellas too. I think the likes of Moore and Robinson will never be seen again.....everything is just so different now.

Brilliant coach wanna best out here. I train peekaboo but buy myself to a certain extent I was wondering if you knew anything about the style and could help out. Also is it better to shadowbox purely for combinations and use a very heavy bag just for power development

@@PunchProfessor I watched this Video again today and Boy! You sure do an excellent job educating and proving your points. This video needs A million hits from all Sports fans!
Professor! Could you share your thoughts and maybe a bit of history on mitt work? According to Freddie Roach, mitt work wasn’t even around until the mid-to-late 70s and that boxers before shadowboxed, worked the bag, and sparred. He said boxers then were way better. Is there any truth in what said? Thank you for any insight you can provide
Excuse me if nobody wants to hear my 2c.
But my thoughts on pad work is that it is highly useful for the pad holder, much more so than the boxer even. It trains someone to be able to read body movement and time blocks and counters to incoming shots, the perfect balance and position to do so and confidence to keep eyes wide open and in opponent Instead of flinching and looking away.
The pad holding and the concept of light technical sparring are two things that Thai boxing get right but western boxing does not.
@@ironfront9573 I totally agree with you. Specially when you mention that Thai boxers got it right, compared to what we tend to do here in the western world.

Iron front. Very interesting! What do Thais do right that western gets wrong? How can western improve?
These greats used bag gloves so when hitting the pads they make sure they get the full fight feel of the punch.
There’s more than one reason! Have you ever seen a season pro’s fist? Hand conditioning. Teaching fighters to make a proper fist, instinctually is another reason. Though I’ve seen some use weighted gloves. It depends on what you are trying to do. Better make sure your wraps or under gloves are on point though when using thin gloves or your hands and wrists will pay the price. Little fractures can hurt your training for a while, but mess up enough and your hands will tell you when it’s going to rain!
Love these videos .. RIP
Noooi!?!
People think that the more weight you have on you the more it encourages you to try to increase your speed so that you can become faster but actually the less weight that holds you back is actually what encourages your body to maximise and increase your speed. Hence why fighters used lighter gloves for the bag. With more speed comes more power and snap.

IMO bag mitts are to not necessarily build power but to force you to make a proper first and have proper punching technique. Its easy to lose technique when you only hit the heavy bag with 16-18oz because the padding in the wrist allows you to get away with throwing a punch where you had your wrist bent or allowing you to keep your hand open a little when you hit the bag because the sound of the padding of the 16oz gloves hitting the bag makes it seem like it was a solid punch but when you get into your pro or amateur fight the 10oz or 8oz gloves wont allow you to makes those mistakes or else you could break or hurt your hands. The mitts are a great addition to add into the routine if you feel that maybe you're not throwing correctly and want to sharpen up and to condition your knuckles so that they're ready for when you have to wear the small competition gloves.

Were they wrapping their hands before doing bag work back then? I wrap up my hands with the cotton-velcro hand wraps when I get to the gym, then hit the bags with the modern style bag gloves that Rival makes. I'm thinking the old school guys waited until they sparred to have their hands wrapped.

I was there in the days when everything about Gloves, and much about Boxing changed !
I have my opinion and may some day make a video?
The gloves were much better in those Old School Days. On the hands, not the opponents eyes !
They had 20 once & 22 once at the Fifth Street Gym on Miami Beach in the 1970's & 80's.
I spent much time in the gym at 5th street when Ali was training there.
The only time you would see these gloves was when the PAID SPARRING PARTNERS had to spar Ali, while Muhammad utilizes 16 ounce gloves* Gloves are to protect the face of the guy you hit in the FACE !
Wraps protect the assets (hands) !
Precision Punching protects the assets (hands)*
Lets go down the road with your guess = 30 once gloves should be better than 20, and 40 once even better?
Then you have the guy who brakes all kinds of incredible STUFF with BARE HANDS, Knuckles !

Im late to the party but my answer is because it teaches you how to properly punch. One day i decided to punch the bag bare nuckle and i was punching like i do with my 16oz gloves and i almost broke my hand. It took 3 more punches to get comfortable and i could tell the difference. I felt like punching bare nuckle would help prevent hand injuries. The thing glove will allow you to punch harder
They use it to use it for the maximum of power hit plus to use correct punching linement
Some of my favorite boxers! I’m wondering though did they wrap their hands under the gloves?

Hit softer bags if possible. First thing I do when I get a new heavy bag is take all the stuffing out and repack it myself..
Old school trainers would repack bags when they became hard with age. I don't see anyone doing that anymore*
The Champions in this video used sparring gloves to spar, fight gloves to fight, and Bag gloves to hit the bags...

Hello Punch Professor. Whats your opinion on jogging? Is it really a must in boxing or was it just an old school tradition that just got carried down? Are boxers better off using the time for jogging doing something else such as more specific training or more recovery time? Thank you
Trollstation123 * * * * * A little off topic but a very good question *
Jogging/running is very valuable, but if a fighter jogs or runs too much they become a distant runner and no longer a boxer !
Implementation is wise, but to give up on the proven benefits of running/Jogging is unwise*
Sprints, stairs and other cardio exercises are a welcomed addition to the mix. Can I say how much mix should be mixed = no because it depends on the athlete, and his team, and their plans ...
I record times over distance, but not always, in order to
measure where the fighter is at in terms of endurance..
I compare their time against their time in past fight preparations?
I hope you follow me.
I will have to keep it short. but will add that long distance 3 miles maybe 5 once in a while 10 is where a fighter will find his second wind ..
It also gives the boxer faith in his conditioning, which when push comes to shove, and they have to dig very deep, they know they can find what they are looking for*
Hope you know what I am talking about?
Sincerely
Paul D'Antuono The Punch Professor
I always though that it made you learn to punch correctly. You want to relax your hands until it’s time to punch and that’s when you clench your fists as you dig into the punch. You also get a feel for which knuckles are actually landing on the Target!

To mold out your Fist for perfect punching.
Thanks to smaller bag gloves you get greater feedback on your punches, you can make a correct fist while punching, it promotes correct punching form especially landing with the index & middle finger knuckles. It also helps with hand conditioning, when you can punch correctly in those small bag gloves and not hurt your hand, fight gloves will feel so protective in comparison; remember these fighters fought every month, sometimes multiple times a month and did you hear of many of the greats having hand injuries? Nope. All of these things add up to that, this is why they're so beneficial when utilised correctly.

In those days if a fighter hit the bags with a 14 or 16 ounce Sparring Glove, the Trainer would stop them right now* All trainers !

Before I watch, I'll say I think it helps with precision and correct form. With big gloves you can just smash the bag however you want. With thinner gloves you just can't, you must have a proper form when punching, otherwise you'll injure yourself. I don't have much money, so I only have one pair of gloves (14 oz), so I do my rounds on the heavybag with gloves, but I also dedicate some time to hit the bag without gloves (of course, not focusing on power)

@@PunchProfessor Sounds great. I'm starting to look more and more on what the great fighters of past days did. Nowadays (and don't get me wrong, science has developed to a point where we may have better and better athletes everyday) we tend to do stuff we don't even know what the purpose is...

in light they all used wraps that protected the hands in more ways than one, they didnt need think padded gloves and Gleasons Gym is the most pronounced gym.
Old timers used these gloves because they kept you honest
What is your opinion on Sonny Liston Professor?
Conditioning the hands, wrists, to cause microfractures to the fist, so that they get stronger after healing
lucky chicken * * * * * Yes the hands got stronger and conditioned.
Their main focus was punching with precision...
They wanted to know what part of their hand was hitting the target !

Paulie D' The Punch Professor
Punch Professor, which part of the hand should we focus on, I hit the bag without any gloves and focus on the bottom three knuckles, am I doing it right?
lucky chicken as far as I know, you should be hitting with the knuckles of pointer and middle finger. Lower two are very easy to break.
@@nmn8829 As Wolfgang said in his reply is the most proper way to punch !
But I do teach to hit with every part of the hand, also the forearm, elbow, headbutt, and the corner stool, if you can get away with it !
True
Paul D' The Punch Professor
@@nmn8829 Jack Dempsey was an advocate for the smaller 3 knuckles because they aligned with the "power line" and delivered a sturdier punch point. I read it in his famed/legendary book "Championship Fighting: Explosive punching and aggressive defense". But either or works I suppose. Jack was a student of "punching" and punching HARD.
Would they wear hand wraps underneath the bag gloves?
Da D * * * * * Yes almost always *
Wraps are for the protection of the HAND !
The Glove is to protect the opponents face *
The gloves we have today. with the attached thumb
(I believe cause more hand problems)
The Old School was all about PRECISION * * * * *
They looked to put a KUCKLE on a PIMPLE...
Rather than a 16 ounce Sparring Glove on 100 lbs Punching Bag

It's because it's the only one in the store labeled "bag gloves"!!!! 😂 That's why I bought that type 😄. Is that evidence that I know more than poop about boxing? Lol
Andrew * * * * * Thank You for Watching and for great comment !
Could be the guy who owned the store know some poop ?
Good for you anyway !

Paul D'Antuono The Punch Professor
@@PunchProfessor yes, that's the truth! The store owner or the person in charge of stock knows what to get so they're the ones who know, not me. But I might have bought it from a General sports store so it's not a guarantee that they have a deep understanding of boxing. They might only be stocking whatever sells. But, true, I don't know boxing.
Point of contact. Getting the most of your power by hitting with the biggest knuckles. Look the at the phantom punche of Mohamad Ali it goes over his opponents hand to his chin but it was precise it wasn't powerful but it was very precise

Thanks for the heart! What was the professors preferred brand?
RB5 Rival bag mitts
Thanks for the rec! Looks great. Your vids look badass.
I still think Ali was the best for his speed and Mike Tyson for power punching Plus Sugar Ray
I think that was Max schemeling 12:05
My mistake that is Jack Dempsey
You should write ur story in a book I’d buy it and read it sir your knowledge of the art of boxing is amazing

to be able to break threw steel and i kno that
All ways use fingerless bag gloves I use to and still do get asked why do you wear them never had a answer till now lol
So I find the answer is to toughen your fist followed by correct form as I use a 72kg bag to increase power also use resistant bands on heavy bag so power and speed increases

@@PunchProfessor do you have an opinion on applying Dominick Cruz footwork patterns in boxing?
In MMA his movement is countered by leg kicks so it seems to me that in the sport of boxing it would gain a huge advantage.

Their main focus/study, was punching with precision...
It was about precision/accuracy more than anything.
Pin Pointing a knuckle on a pimple, rather than a 16 ounce sparring glove on 100 pound punching bag.
The study of precision is so important in Punching.
