Boxing gloves have been around since the sport started. They can be found throughout history and have been used by many different cultures and many different styles of fighting. Most people think that gloves are used to soften the blows and protect the person getting punched but they are acutely there to protect your hands.

First things first. Where are you going to put it? This can be a big problem for some people. Not everyone has a bunch of free space in their home, or apartment. If your getting one for your gym then space is most likely not an issue.

Your hand are made up of many small bones, ligaments and tendons and constant unprotected abuse can quickly damage all of those internal parts. It is not that they are fragile but constant abuse can really do some damage. You are going to need protection. In boxing your hands are your weapons and if you do not protect them, then your boxing career will be short lived.

So what kind of gloves do YOU need? Well that all depends on what you are going to be doing. There are several different types and each one can be used for something different.

If you are trying to increase your upper body strength then a good pair of weighted gloves are what you need. They can provide one heck of a cardio workout. They have built in weights and some brands have weights that can be added or removed to help work out the muscles in your arms and upper body.

If you are a boxer in training then you are going to need an excellent pair of training gloves. These will help keep your thumbs and fist in the correct position and avoid injury.

If you are practicing your martial arts then you most likely want sparring gear made especially for martial arts. Martial arts sparring gear will also come with padded head gear and foot pads.

Then you have MMA or Mixed Martial Arts. There are gloves made just for this type of fighting. They are called MMA gloves.This style of gloves is smaller and allows the use of your fingers for grappling moves and hair pulling. Just kidding about the hair pulling.;)

Do you have a heavy bag that you like to take some aggression out on? It can be a great way to exercise your upper body and stay fit. You might want to look over the heavy bag gloves, they are made just for this purpose.

What if you just happen to love the color pink? Well if you do then you are in luck because you can also find great boxing gloves that are pink and even some that are purple.

As you can see there are quite a few different types of boxing gloves and they all have their own unique purposes. Make sure you get the correct ones and keep your hands protected.

Mixed Martial Arts (mma) Madness

Mixed Martial Arts

While browsing ESPN, you spot what seems like a boxing match, until suddenly opponents start to kick one another. The next thing you know, the two fighters are on the ground, striking one another. Welcome to the exciting and increasingly popular arena of mixed martial arts (also known as MMA). You may think this is the next wave in martial arts entertainment, but this combat sport has actually been around since the Olympic games in 648 BC.

What to Expect During a Match

Mixed martial arts uses three different phases of fighting - stand-up, clinch and ground. Stand-up fighting incorporates boxing, kickboxing and Muay Thai. Freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling, Sambo (from Russia), as well as Judo are used in the clinch phase of fighting. The ground phase of fighting is characterized by Brazilian Jui-Jitsu (focuses on positioning), shoot wrestling, catch wrestling, Judo, as well as Sambo.

Fighting techniques that you may encounter during a MMA competition includes kicks, punches, knees, pinning holds, sweeps, takedowns, throws, some elbowing, as well as hand-to-hand combat. A win is typically awarded through the decision of a judge. Matches are timed, therefore, the decision comes after the allotted time has passed. Other circumstances that end a fight include referee stoppage, fight doctor decision, submission, cornerman throwing in the towel and of course, a knockout.

The Mixed Martial Arts of Today

The kind of fighting techniques associated with the mixed martial arts of today deals with a combination of different professional fighting styles. Most commonly, a fighter started training in one specific arena of fighting and later decided to branch off into other styles of combat. The main styles of fighting include sprawl-and-brawl, clinch-and-pound and ground-and-pound.

Sprawl-and-brawl is a stand-up fighting approach that utilizes striking and purposefully avoids fighting on the ground. This type of fighter usually has a strong background in boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai or karate. To fight in this style, MMA fighters have undergone training in wrestling. Well-known mixed martial artists connected to this approach include Chuck Liddell, Maurice Smith and Phil Barconi.

Clinch-and pound uses clinch fighting tactics characterized by a clinch hold. While a fighter holds an opponent so that they cannot move, they will often strike the body using their knees, or other dirty boxing moves. Most of these fighters started wrestling before incorporating boxing techniques. Don Frye, Dan Henderson and Randy Couture are familiar with this style of fighting.

Ground-and-pound involves the taking down or throwing of an opponent. The next step is to get into the dominant position, attacking with strikes. Wrestlers usually turn to this type of fighting, which has been used by the likes of Mark Coleman, Randy Couture and Tito Ortiz.

Since there are so many different styles of MMA combat associated with mixed martial art, you may think that there is nothing a fighter can do to their opponent. In actuality, there are several fouls connected to this sport. A fighter are not allowed to head-butt, eye gouge, pull the hair, bite, attack the groin or strike the back of the head or kidneys of an opponent.

MMA Organizations

Bringing the exciting world of mixed martial arts fighting to the public are several different organizations that all have their own specific rules and regulations. One of the most well known, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) - http://www.martialartspride.com - tests their fighters for steroids and other illegal substances before allowing entrance to one of their championship bouts. In this organization, elbow strikes are allowed with the exception of ones that come from the north-south direction. PRIDE Fighting Championships mainly offer two different MMA weight classes (heavyweight and middleweight) and forbids fighters from intentionally hanging an arm or leg on the ropes.

With the ZST, which is an organization based in Japan, there are two five-minute rounds. At the end of a match, a fight is deemed a draw if there was no knockout (KO), technical knockout (TKO) or Submission. MMA judges are not used in this form of fighting. Shooto is another form of combat fighting that presents separate rules and regulations for three different class levels (A, B, and C). Level C is set aside for the amateurs. Three 4-minute rounds are attached to the International Fight League, which uses a different pair of gloves, offering less padding.

Regardless of where or within which mma organization, mixed martial arts madness is sweeping the globe and is coming to a "cage" near you!

does this sound like a good tattoo?

im 16 and pretty well grown out( wide shoulders and big arms) so I dont think I need to wait..so I was wondering which tattoo sounded better. a kind of tribal or celtic barbwire going around my arm going through a 4 leaf clover in the middle with the caption "LUCK IS MADE, NOT GIVEN",..or since my initials spell out TKO get a pair of boxing gloves with the strings coming together to form a "T" and "K" and "O" on the boxing gloves. tell me which one sounds better or what you guys think.

Tribal and barbed wire are both really common and overdone. I think that if you're into boxing, the second one would be a good tattoo, but if it's just a connection to your initials with no real meaning other than that, I wouldn't get it. I suggest you think on your ideas for a while and then when you get the perfect idea, you'll know!
