    16 oz. Top Contender Training Goves



    just got these last week. i needed a pair of 16 oz.-ers for the tournament I'm fighting in on sunday.

    i've never worn boxing gloves before. my other gloves are JKD gloves



    i love them.

    im not sure how i feel about the TC's i just got. i feel like they fit kinda weird. i feel like it's actually harder to make a proper fist and hit with the right area of the fist and actually have less support for my wrists than the JKD gloves.

    on the upside, because of the weird fit, i keep my hand completely relaxed inside the glove and so i feel like they are better for some of the "open hand" type applications favoured by i liq chuan, and i was amazed that i was still able to trap punches and even apply a joint lock or two while wearing them in sparring practice this past sunday and tuesday.
