Many won't agree with me but I think lace ups are better.

@@GabrielVargaOfficial damn I wish I knew about that tip before I ordered some £300/$400 winning Velcros haha, definitely getting lace up next

@@victormathewtv which ones do you prefer now ? Lace up or velcros 🤨

In my opinion it all depends on the quality of the glove. I hit the bag with a pair of $260 16oz Fly gloves and a pair of $35 4oz rival bag mitt and in my opinion I feel no difference in my wrist, They are both really high quality gloves made for 2 different purposes(Sparring and Bagwork) but are not made to be low quality. I would honestly recommend trying the 16oz fly x gloves in Velcro, very soft gloves that give great feedback,They are kinda as if winning and cleto reyes made a hybrid glove.

I usually clinch with no gloves but if you're sparring and end up in the clinch he velcro burn is no fun. Great point and another reason why laceup is nice.

The glove stink is real, I try and wipe out the sweat with a paper towel and then use a tea towel soaked in warm water with dettol solution in it and then put it in front of a dehumidifier all night.

It's nice to have a glove assortment. I have about 5 different gloves I rotate between.

Muzamil Choudhry I have used both, Reyes gives me more support and weighs heavier than it says. Winning is much softer, easy to grasp firmly.

I've tried both and thought they were nice. However the Reyes were 16oz so I haven't tried padwork with that brand. 12oz winning were well made but didn't fit my hand as well as other gloves I've used.

That is a bit hard to do regularly when training unless you have a partner or are around people who have the time to wrap it for you, and then when you are done you need them to cut it off for you unless you want to use your mouth, also it may damage the glove over time. It's not really practical to do and the lace ups are sort of the same thing if you are training regularly. Velcro beats them in training for ease especially if you are training on your own.

@@mmareviewer.2372 It may be obvious for the experienced martial artist. But if you watch this video objectively in isolation, it doesn't take wrapping into the equation, which might give the idea that if you stick your hand inside a laceup glove, you're good to go for hard punches. I have never used laceup gloves, and I relate to the wrist issues with velcro gloves without hand wrap, so I could reasonably derive from the video that if I would switch to laceup gloves, which seem to offer more support, I would get at least a comparable effect to using velcro gloves in combination with hand wrap. Isn't this a fair reasoning, objectively speaking?

If you have your hands wrapped inside and then the glove on sturdy then you are good to go. If you are going to wrap the wrist additionally, I don't think that is necessary unless you really hurt when you hit or just prefer the extra support. In isolation I do not know how easy it is to use lace ups or wrap the gloves wrist if you are alone, but at the gym or with someone to help you I think this is amazing. I honestly would use any glove that works as long as my hands are wrapped well in them.

I've been very surprised by my 10oz Hayabusa Glory gloves. They are the only ones I don't have to wrap for. The knuckle protection is enough and the wrist support is amazing. Aside from this glove I always wrap.

@@GabrielVargaOfficial Interesting, thanks!
