How to choose the weight of boxing gloves ?
Generally, there are below 6OZ, 8OZ, 10OZ, 12OZ, 14OZ, 16OZ and above (OZ is the abbreviation of ounce). 1 oz=28.3 g.Different weight boxing gloves have different sizes.
Generally, we have three choices: the first is the width of the palm, the second is the weight of the punching mitts, and the third is the height. I have made a general table for you to see.
Palm width Weight Height Boxing weight
Below 7cm, below 35KG, below 150cm, below 6OZ (for children)
7-8cm 40-60KG 150-160cm 8-10OZ
8-9cm 60-70KG 160-170cm 10-12OZ
9-10cm 70-80KG 170-180cm 12-14OZ
11-12cm 80-90KG 180-190cm 14-16OZ
12-13cm 90-100KG 190-200cm 16-18OZ

In professional competitions, the weight of the gloves is generally selected according to the weight. The heavier the gloves are, the more they are filled, the thicker the fist peak is, and the larger the internal space will be. The better the protection effect will be, but the strength requirements of the opponent will also be higher!
Boxing gloves generally choose red and black. Red is easy to cause excitement, and black is more powerful. This is all about adults.
