Excellent review, Sir. I wanted 2 pairs of gloves to order and arrive at the same time, one for myself and the second as a gift. I was able to find 2 gloves in XL on the other side of the country out of a store in Hollywood, California, which was the stores last two pairs. A black and a white pair. As far as the performance of the gloves, there is a love/hate relationship because these gloves drive you to hit the bag or focus mitts accurately to get that nice popping sound. And once you get the precision down, and repeatedly get the popping sound, it feels so good.
I'm new to boxing fitness workouts - I only use gloves for bag work. I have been using the Hayabusa H5 gloves and they're good. But when I put on the Rival RB50, wow they were so much more comfortable. The RB50s have this gel shield on the front of the gloves that really provides a great cushion. I also like that the velcro wraps almost completely around the wrist. I would rate these close to a 10 in terms of protecting my hands and comfort.
I was the same way! Buying multiple gloves just for the bag work. Seeing this makes me now into this glove. Could you be THE one. If I can, I shall get it. 🥊👍🏻
Great review.Just what I was looking for. I am just returning to hitting a bag again which glove would you recommend to start with RB5 or RB50? I will eventually purchase both. My hand measures 8.75" in your opinion should I lean towards the large? Thank you
My hands are at an 8 and the gloves are perfect without wraps the way I like it, for Your hands the large would definitely work especially if ur wrapping them. Thank You So much I really Appreciate that!!!
How are they holding up? I'm debating between these and the rfx guerrero intellishock for an extra $60. I wonder if the wrist lock would be worth the extra price
I love mine and use them every single day, bags and pads. I would bet that the the wrist lock could be worth the extra money in the sense that there is probably deeper more supportive and thorough Velcro. If money is tight get the 50's if not treat urself to those Guerrero 's!! You deserve em train hard!!!!
If you wrap your hands, get the medium, if not the small will be good if you train without wraps and have small hands. My hands are on the biggest end of medium and smallest end of large (if that makes sense) and I got the mediums and they are perfect. One of my #1 gloves for Dbl End Bag work.
I guess I‘m way to late to recommend, but what should I do I‘m 5‘11 but by hand circumference is just 19cm. And the small sized ones are up to 21,5 cm, so I ordered them. But I feel like they may not fit me because of the length of the fingers…?
Well....worst comes to worst you return them for the mediums. I'm 5"11 & 3/4's (to be technical) and the mediums fit me perfectly to where my fingertips are as far as they can go WITHOUT being uncomfortable. Best of luck bud let me know how it works out.
I first bought the fx guererro matrix edition thats have the same d3 tech and were over 250 after all was said and done. Around 2 years ago now abd the velcro is almost completely gone. These ones in white were sold out forever but i finally got em from a 3rd party and omg. These were just over 100 and honestly i like em better which is weird as they are cheaper. Also i found the stiching and quality in the rb50 were cleaner. The Guerrero stitching is not very well done
No I don't. The gloves are so snug you don't need them. These gloves are beautiful for double end bag work and your fast in and out combos on the heavy bag. I use every day for my double end bag work.
Good Morning!! You can use them for any sort of bag or mitt work but definitely not for sparring. Great gloves I use them everyday for one aspect or another in my training. Definitely worth having if this is what you love to do. Train Hard!!
Well thank you!!! I'm sure it's all the stuff you already know...wake up early, exercise, stay away from garbage food and keep a good Spirit! I appreciate you Thank You!
