[them_apples]

but i agree with yall..
i think its the more u pay the better quality the goods will be... thats how it goes..

its jus rival really impressed me with the prices i payed..
they blow everlast / ringside / title outta the water

sure everlast has protex, but thats it, before that gloves everlast was balls for gloves

thats not true. They always had a professional line, some of the most durable gloves to date.

Everlast gets a bad wrap for the crap they sell through places like Walmart and Sports Authority. Those are for account executives who happen to catch a PPV boxing match at their buddy's house and decide to put up a bag in the garage, then get bored two weeks later. That equipment is not meant for the serious boxer. Even if you can't afford anything else, you really shouldn't be using that garbage. I see beginners wearing that stuff at the gym from time to time and they have no clue. Everlast pro line, and basically products you can only get through a catalog or online, are great quality. I know they get paid to endorse everlast, but still, so many pro athletes wouldn't still be using it if it was crap. Protex is great stuff, the pro training gloves are great as well.

hmm. well i guess i shouldnt judge i never owned a winning /grant piece...

does winning and grant last long tho ??
ive owned rival ultra bag gloves before, they lasted me like over a year before even getting any bit flat... they were solid. this new pair will last me. for 80 bucks its worth the 12-18 months

yeah, they last a lot

i can tell you from my own experience that winning lasts for more than a year of regular use (including the heavy bag). mine look and feel the same way after all that time. the only thing that deteriorates obviously is the smell, but what the heck, all gloves start to stink after almost 2 years of use lol

but now the protex line got a price cut. if you're in need of any specific glove anytime soon, i'd HIGHLY suggest you to try their protex2 line (about $75)

i got their protex3 training gloves a month ago (title had 50% off on all everlast gear). those little gloves are amazing. mine are just 12oz and offer protection only surpassed by my winning 16oz and 18oz (haven't tried the 12oz to make an unbiased comparison)

if you ever get money to waste or by any chance take your boxing pro level or something, just get winning man. i know it looks like some PR crap, but there's nothing out there close to them in terms of protection
