these be a huge improvement over my old glove . they seem to provide good protection . I have use they for both sparring and heavy bag work and they be hold up well . they fit snugly when wear 180 '' wrap and my large hand but it be not that bad . I would recomend they to anyone start boxing especially for the price . -lrb- the same exact thing be $ 80 at a large retail chain -rrb-
