Sanabul Battle Forged 7 OZ MMA Hybrid Sparring Gloves
Full contact sparring day to day in 4 oz MMA gloves is a bad idea, unless you don’t care about the health and safety of yourself and your training partners. It may make sense to “train how your fight”, but more padding is needed for real punches in a training setting. Boxing gloves, even small 10 oz gloves, cover the palms and fingers making gripping and grappling awkward and ineffective. For these reasons Sanabul makes the Battle Forged 7 oz MMA Hybrid Sparring Gloves.
Sanabul Battle Forged 7 oz MMA Hybrid Sparring Gloves have an inch of dense foam over the knuckles where you (and your training partner) need it most. With a closed fist, the hand, including the thumb, is fully protected by the Battle Forged Hybrid Glove. When the hand is opened, the fingers and palm are exposed for grappling.
This technologically advanced glove is covered in durable easy to clean SBL engineered leather. SBL leather is specifically designed for combat sports applications. It is durable and has just enough “give” to conform to your hand without losing its shape. It also looks great. The inside of the glove has a premium lining with antimicrobial properties for your comfort and health. In the middle is hand-shaped foam to protect your knuckles, while providing the ultimate fit.
Battle Forged MMA Grappling Gloves are secured to the hand with a hook and loop closure. The generous length of this fastener wraps twice around the wrist, providing additional wrist support and allowing the glove to fit well with or without hand wraps.


FAQ
Why do Battle Forged gloves cost more than the Essential gloves?
All Sanabul gloves bring you performance and durability. Essential series gloves are focused on value, while Battle Forged gloves use more expensive materials for superior finish and feel.
Can this product make me a better athlete?
Only hard work over time can do that. But, the functional, durable design of Sanabul equipment means less time worrying about gear and more time training, so in that way it can help!
Do I need handwraps with my gloves?
You might work some light combos without wraps, but you definitely need to own handwraps! Handwraps provide support and protection for your wrists, knuckles and many small bones in your hands. Most athletes consider them a must for sparring, training, competing, and heavy bag work.
