Below, you’ll find everything you need to know about choosing the right MMA glove—from the difference between 4 oz and 7 oz to a comparison of all models and materials.

Hayabusa, Fairtex and King Pro Boxing. MMA gloves at Fight2Win.

Fight2Win carries MMA gloves from the three strongest brands in the segment: HayabusaFairtex and King Pro Boxing - all available directly from stock at our warehouse in Waddinxveen.

MMA gloves are designed for Mixed Martial Arts training and competitions, but are also widely used for Krav Maga and heavy bag training. The open-finger design provides the flexibility needed for grappling and submissions, while the padding protects your knuckles when punching.

Hayabusa T3, T3 LX Retro, King Revo or Fairtex. The MMA gloves compared.

Hayabusa T3 (VYLAR®-2) - recreationalists and advanced users: Hayabusa's own synthetic material, excellent fit thanks to the Dual-X closure system that supports both the wrist and hand. Hybrid model suitable for both grappling and striking. Available in 4 oz and 7 oz, sizes S to XL.

Hayabusa T3 LX Retro (Italian leather) - recreationalists and advanced users: The same construction as the T3, but with an Italian leather exterior and a retro brown color scheme. Premium version for those who prefer genuine leather. Available in 4 oz and 7 oz, sizes S to XL.

Fairtex Sparring (100% leather) - recreationalists and advanced users: Authentic Thai craftsmanship, tested at the world-famous Fairtex training camp in Pattaya. Thick padding that covers the knuckles like a protective layer while still offering sufficient flexibility for grappling. Available in 4 oz (black-white, M to XL) and 7 oz (black-red, XL).

King Pro Boxing Revo 2 (synthetic leather) - recreationalists: Entry-level model in synthetic leather, suitable for MMA training and Krav Maga. Available in 7 oz, sizes S to XL.

4 oz or 7 oz: Choosing the right weight MMA gloves.

MMA gloves come in two weights—the difference lies entirely in the thickness of the padding:

4 oz – competition and conditioning: Thin gloves with minimal padding. Used in professional MMA competitions and by advanced boxers who deliberately choose maximum feedback and hand conditioning. They hit harder—for both you and your training partner. Not suitable for sparren with a partner.

7 oz – training and sparren: Thicker padding for more cushioning and protection—for both you and your training partner. The standard choice for regular MMA training, heavy bag training, and light sparring. Recommended for beginners and anyone who uses the gloves for daily training.

Rule of thumb: Not sure? Choose 7 oz. The extra padding protects your hands during intensive use and is safer for training partners.

Size S, M, L, or XL. Choosing the right size MMA gloves.

Size S, M, L or XL. Choosing the right size MMA gloves.

answer: MMA gloves are available in sizes S through XL—the size determines the fit around your hand.

General guideline:

  • S - small hands, most women
  • M - average hand size, women with larger hands and lighter men
  • L - average to large men's hands
  • XL - large hands, heavier athletes

Please note for Hayabusa: the T3 and T3 LX Retro have a snug fit due to the Dual-X closure system. Are you between two sizes? Choose the larger size, especially if you use handwraps or wraps.

Personal advice: visit our showroom in Waddinxveen to try on the gloves—MMA gloves fit differently from boxing gloves, and fit is especially important for grappling.

MMA, Krav Maga, or heavy bag training. Which sport do you use MMA gloves for?

MMA gloves are more versatile than their name suggests:

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) - the primary sport. All models are designed for this purpose. The open-finger design is essential for grappling, submissions, and clinch work.

Krav Maga - MMA gloves are widely used for Krav Maga training. The open fingers provide the flexibility needed for Krav Maga self-defense techniques.

Heavy bag training - the 7 oz models are excellent for intensive heavy bag training. The thick padding protects the knuckles, while the open fingers provide extra flexibility—useful if you want to interrupt your workout for push-ups or other exercises.

Not suitable for: sparren with a partner (use regular boxing gloves of at least 14 oz for this), or sports that require full hand protection.

Keep MMA gloves fresh and clean. Care by material.

answer: MMA gloves are used intensively and require regular maintenance.

After every training session:

  • Leave the gloves open to dry in a ventilated place
  • Use an antibacterial spray to prevent bacterial growth
  • Use an deodorizer to help the gloves dry faster

VYLAR®-2 (Hayabusa T3):

  • Wipe with a damp cloth; do not use leather grease on VYLAR®-2
  • Hayabusa's proprietary material is durable and easy to maintain

Italian leather (Hayabusa T3 LX Retro):

  • Wipe with a damp cloth after use
  • Treat periodically with leather grease to keep the leather supple with intensive use
  • Do not dry in direct sunlight

  • Wipe with a damp cloth after use
  • Treat periodically with leather grease
  • Do not submerge in water

Synthetic leather (King Pro Boxing):

Frequently asked questions — MMA gloves

Do you use handwraps with MMA gloves?

Yes.

It is common to wear boxing wraps under MMA gloves.

Handwraps provide crucial support and protection for the hands and wrists, which are prone to injuries during training and fights. Boxing wraps help stabilize the wrists and knuckles, prevent hyperextension, and absorb impact.

Reasons to use handwraps for MMA:

  • Support and stability: handwraps connect the small metacarpal bones and the bones of the hand and wrist. This creates a more stable structure that can withstand the force of punches.
  • Injury prevention: they help prevent common MMA injuries, such as broken metacarpal bones, sprained or broken wrists, and knuckle injuries.
  • Improved fit: handwraps improve the fit of your gloves. They give you a more compact, firmer, and snugger feel.
  • Sweat absorption: handwraps absorb sweat, which can help prevent the gloves from becoming slippery and uncomfortable while keeping your hands drier.
  • Hygiene: by absorbing sweat, handwraps help prevent bacteria from growing inside your gloves.

Are MMA gloves also used in Krav Maga?

Yes.

MMA gloves are ideal for Krav Maga. 

This is because they provide protection with as little restriction as possible. You can also easily grab and hold with them. This makes them well suited for training that is as realistic as possible.

Collections

Can I use MMA gloves on the punching bag?

Yes.

Of course, the open-finger gloves are also ideally suited for intensive heavy bag training.

Thanks to the thick padding, your hands are well protected. The separate fingers give you flexibility, allowing you to easily pause your training to do push-ups or have a drink, for example.

What is the difference between 4 oz and 7 oz MMA gloves?

The difference lies in the weight (oz) of the MMA-gloves. A 4 oz glove is, as expected, lighter than a 7 oz glove.

The 7 oz gloves are more suitable (read: safer) for regular training. This is due to the thicker padding on the striking surface.

The 4 oz MMA-gloves, on the other hand, are often considered competition gloves.

Naturally, both 4 oz and 7 oz can also be used as "training" mma-gloves.

Collections

Can I also come by to try on and buy MMA gloves directly from you?

Yes.

You can absolutely come in to try on and purchase MMA gloves directly from us. Then you know 100% for sure that you’ll leave the showroom with the right gloves! Our physical showroom has the same stock as our online shop.

There is always a specialist available to help you choose the right MMA gloves for you and your budget.

What are hybrid MMA gloves?

Hybrid MMA gloves are exactly what they sound like: a “hybrid” between regular larger boxing gloves and smaller, compact MMA gloves.

They are relatively large for MMA gloves because they have a thicker padding and therefore offer more protection than (competition) MMA gloves.

During training at clubs & gyms, Hybrid gloves (or at least heavier MMA gloves) are mainly used for safety.

Hybrid MMA gloves are also very suitable for Krav Maga, bag training, or other forms of self-defense. You can punch well with them while still being able to grapple.

Collections

What size MMA gloves do I need?

Besides the difference in weight (4 oz or 7 oz), MMA gloves are also available in sizes S to XL.

These are almost always adult sizes, so most women will fit an S or M, while most men—depending on the size of their hands—will fit an M, L, or XL.

Depending on your age and the circumference of your hands, you will need to choose which size fits your hands best. For personal advice, it is best to visit our store so you can try on the gloves.

Every brand and model of MMA glove on our website has a unique size chart. This provides the best possible guideline for what we think is the best choice for you for that specific model.
