    training gloves

    My old 16oz gloves were used only for sparring, and worked well. they were red twins. I let a friend borrow them for a sparring session, after which he put the sweaty gloves in his gym bag, zipped it up and left it in his hot trunk for about a week. needless to say, the gloves turned into a breeding ground for all kinds of sweaty mold and fungus that grew inside and outside of the gloves.
    I am looking for a new pair of gloves, but this time i will use the set for not only sparring, but bag work and pad work as well. (i have twins bag gloves and 8oz padwork gloves from raja already). I am thikning of getting 14 oz gloves, and have been researching a bit and have become fond of these two gloves...

    title gel 14oz ---http://store.titleboxing.com/title-gel-hook-and-loop-world-training-gloves.html

    and

    rival ergo lace 14oz short cuff --- http://www.rivalboxing.com/e/rs2-e.html

    does anyone have any experience with either?
    i know i know the rivals seem a bit pricey, but my friend is replacing my gloves, so i may just throw in a little bit of money over and beyond what the twins woulda cost me.

    I just got these, and I love them. Im still not that great on the bag, but they are very comfortable, and protect my wrist pretty good. I have also heard nothing but great things about them.
