jamamaw Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 http://mmajunkie.com/2014/05/bellator-ceo-says-new-glove-design-has-curbed-hand-injuries-offers-tech-to-ufc Well the new gloves are suppose to curb the hand injuries fighters get time after time. I think if they can stop the broken hands and such that the ufc should adopt them as well. Thoughts? Opinions? Childish insults? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ijosef Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Give it more time. If the gloves prove themselves (not saying they won't), bring them on over to the UFC. Rebney is just hyping his company's creation by saying that injuries have dropped "exponentially". There's always room for improvement in fight gear, and gloves are one of the biggest areas along with cups and mouthguards. I'd like to hear more fighter opinions on actually using the gloves in the cage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uddaside Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 The UFC should've at least switched to the Pride gloves ages ago, there's some politics or foul play at hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PunchBag Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 also if the gloves hinder grappling then thats better for the fans cause we see less effective wrestling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBJF Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 bellator fighters don't punch hard enough for them to injure their hands... if the UFC used bellator gloves fighters would be droppin left and right. #warzuffazombies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcmax3000 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I think we should wait until there's more than nine events worth of data to say that they make any significant difference, but if it turns out that they do, sure. There's nothing negative that could come from it. Dana did say awhile ago that they were looking into new glove designs to try, and cut down on eye pokes, so it's possible that they're still working on something better than what they've got right now.
