Review on Venum Giant 3.0 Boxing Gloves: Unbeatable Protection and Performance by Christopher Isaac

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent knuckle and palm padding

The knuckle padding and wrist support on this 12 oz (actual weight 11.4 oz) is excellent. It's actually more comfortable on the ankles and wrist with a 120lb banana bag than with my 10oz laces and 12oz Top Kings. I'm sure 80-100 pounds would be a dream. 14 ounces would have been preferable for a 120 lb banana bag but I actually bought this solely for Muay Thai training due to the amount of padding in the palm and wrist areas to block kicks and use gloves. They're also pretty soft for your partner, despite only weighing 12 ounces. The exercises are not sparring, we only catch punches and kicks with gloves, so we don't need anything heavier. The only slightly awkward thing is that the wrist area is tight, which makes it a bit difficult to reach your hand with bandages, similar to lacing, and the extra padding on the palm gives you the feeling that your bandages are bunched in that area . But I'm happy to accept that because of the excellent support and cushioning properties.
