Intelli-Shock D3O™ - shock absorption on another level

D3O™ is an advanced material that is soft and flexible at rest but instantly hardens on impact for maximum shock absorption. In the RPM10, it is incorporated into the Intelli-Shock foam construction - the striking surface optimally absorbs the force of every punch, from light jabs to hard hooks.

The result: less strain on the trainer’s hands and wrists, even when working with the heaviest hitters and during the longest sessions.

Specific features

+ Pre-curved ergonomic design

The pre-curved ergonomic design follows the natural curve of the hand, allowing the hand pad to sit comfortably in the palm and reducing strain on the wrist when catching punches.
This provides a more stable grip and less fatigue during long training sessions.
+ Specific right- and left-handed punching mitts

Unlike universal punching mitts, these punching mitts are specifically designed for the right and left hand.
The anatomical design conforms more closely to the hand’s natural position, providing a better grip, greater control, and less strain on the wrist when catching punches.
+ Highly wear-resistant Nash palm lining

The Nash palm lining is a high-quality synthetic material known for its exceptional abrasion resistance.
The lining protects the palm from friction and heat during intensive use, while retaining its structure and grip even after many hours of training.
+ Silicone Rival Patch

The silicone Rival patch is a distinctive feature on Rival gloves and protectors. The silicone material is more durable than ordinary printed or embroidered logos—it does not fade, peel off, or lose its appearance even after intensive use and regular cleaning.
A small detail that underscores Rival’s quality standard: even the finish is built to last.
+ Available immediately from Fight2Win – all-inclusive price

Winning gloves have worldwide waiting lists of more than a year. Fight2Win is one of the few stores in Europe with genuine stock—purchase directly at our showroom in Waddinxveen. Our price is completely all-in, including import duties and VAT - no surprises afterward.

Rival - Designed in Canada

In 2003, Russ Anber Rival Boxing Gear founded it—not as a businessman, but as someone who had spent decades in the gym and knew exactly what was lacking in the equipment available. He began innovating, patenting, and building, permanently changing the boxing world with patented designs in gloves, punching mitts, and handwraps.

“My gift was the ability to coach, break things down, analyze and make people understand how things work.” — Russ Anber

Intelli-Shock D3O™

Intelli-Shock D3O™ is the world’s best shock-absorbing padding Rival was the first—and remains the only—company in the boxing and MMA world to use it.

With approximately 6 mm of Intelli-Shock padding you get the same protection as with approximately 25 mm of other padding. This is because it uses Intelligent Shock Absorption™—at low speeds, the molecules move freely (soft and flexible), while at high speeds, they lock together (providing excellent shock absorption).

The RB10 Intelli-Shock boxing gloves harden on impact. This reduces impact load by 40%* and makes the glove approximately 38% lighter than regular boxing gloves with gel technology.

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.
