Frequently asked questions — Rival knuckle guards

What is the story behind Rival Boxing Gear?

Rival Boxing Gear was founded in Canada in the early 2000s and has since experienced steady growth in the world of martial arts, with an emphasis on classic boxing. The company was founded by Russ Anber, a prominent name in the boxing world.

Anber, a respected boxing trainer and coach, had an in-depth understanding of what fighters needed to improve their skills and excel in the ring. With this background and expertise, he aimed to produce high-quality equipment that would meet fighters’ needs.

What does Intelli-Shock D3O™ mean?

Intelli-Shock D3O™ is the world's best shock-absorbing padding. ter wereld.

Rival Boxing Gear was the first, and is currently the only, company in the boxing or MMA world to use it.

How effective is Intelli-Shock? You get the same protection with approximately one-quarter inch (6 mm) or one-eighth inch (3 mm) of Intelli-Shock padding as with approximately one inch (25 mm) of other padding. This is because it uses Intelligent Shock Absorption™, a patented shock-absorbing material developed with Intelligent Molecules.

At low speeds, the molecules in D3O™ flow freely, making it soft and flexible, while at high speeds, the molecules come together to form an excellent shock absorber. D3O™ provides significantly more protection than conventional foams, making it the perfect solution for improving the internal protection of equipment and accessories.

The Rival RB10 Intelli-Shock bag gloves, which use this technology, become firmer on contact and not only reduce the amount of energy transferred to the body by 40%*. This means a drastic reduction in impact stress, while the glove is also approximately 38% lighter than regular gel-technology bag gloves available on the market.

D3O® is an innovative material with extreme shock absorption! Unlike other cushioning materials, D3O® retains its durable performance throughout the lifespan of, for example, boxing gloves. It is also used in protective clothing for defense and extreme sports, such as ice hockey.
