Top 10 Muay Thai Boxing Gloves for Unlimited Training

written by April 27, 2015 - 10:34 am

Muay Thai is a deadly cultural martial art of Thailand that involves high intensity stand up strikes combined with various clinching techniques. It is also known as the “Art of Eight Limbs” because the fighting and defense technique uses the pair of fists, elbows, knees and shins. Muay Thai training requires a considerable amount of physical and mental discipline for continuous practice, which increases the efficiency of a full-contact fighter. The history of Muay Thai dates back hundreds of years, and much of the written records of this boxing culture was lost during the Burmese attack on the capital city of Siam (Thailand).

The most important training gear that must be present in a Muay Thai fighter’s gym bag is a pair or two of Muay Thai boxing gloves. The Thai boxing gloves are an integral part of the training equipment that is necessary for safe practice. The two hands are the main weapons of the fighter and fighting without protective gloves can break the fighter’s knuckles and spoil the nerves of his wrist forever.

Those who train for Muay Thai kickboxing can actually have two pair of gloves – one ten ounce pair for the pad and bag hits and another sixteen ounce pair for the drilling and sparring moves. It must be kept in mind that specially designed Muay Thai gloves are quite different from cheap boxing gloves.
