More than 20 years late, back in the pride FC era , Japanese brand was already making best MMA gloves (winning made pride FC gloves, that were the best MMA gloves until now rizin ff (same ceo as pride FC ) having ISAMI brand gloves (another Japanese brand) making their MMA and kickboxing and boxing gloves. Currently rizin gloves are the best in the market in term of quality material and design (cause they try reproduce pride FC gloves). After japanese MMA it's Bellator and PFL that has best gloves. UFC and one FC have the worst gloves in MMA industry and UFC being more expensive than one FC has the Worst ratio quality/price .
Currently Japanese brand ISAMI produce MMA gloves for rizin ff (same ceo as pride FC) and try reproduce pride FC gloves. Because of that rizin has the best MMA gloves on the market. (Second. Place is Bellator and PFL , one FC and UFC are known for having worst and cheapest gloves despite UFC being expensive for same low quality as one) . UFC making a "engineering" like video just for MMA gloves when the best MMA gloves on market were already made more than 20 years ago in Japan. (Brand winning and now ISAMI) No need that much or make a big deal for so small . Nothing revolutionary, same with Trevor Whitman , nothing revolutionary, Since early 2000's there were good MMA gloves from good brand but they were only used in Japan . Leone and Everlast make also good gloves for Bellator . UFC make a lot of noise for little primitive things
Seems like a ton of money and research to avoid using Trevor Whitman’s gloves that were available ten years ago just because UFC couldn’t profit enough off them.
Just another example. Why MMA and UFC are the leader in combat sports. You never see this kind of care and evolution in boxing or kickboxing. I love that they got feedback from the fighters
I still see nothing that says the gloves were designed to reduce eye pokes. They said maybe the reduced eye pokes were a result but he didn't even mention how high the reduction was. Nothing was done to reduce eye pokes.

It would be kinda cool to have a force meter to be able to say a KO punch landed with 544.8 pounds of force, or whatever just pulled a number out of my ass. But that would be kinda cool, real time force feedback from the gloves.
Who else isn’t a fan of the Gold Gloves for Championship Fights? I prefer the color to be uniform color since RED and BLUE will be wrapped and Gold does not pair well with Blue.
First up,why don’t you cut your fingernails back and or put an inner glove on the inside of the main glove? That would stop eye injuries because it won’t allow to be abrasive to the eyes.

I just reminded that "technology" and "engineering" from early 2000's already produced perfect MMA gloves in pride FC , and right now isami reproduce pride FC gloves made by winning, without legal issues, it should be easy for any brand to reproduce similar pride.fc gloves without (engineering alien spacial technology) .

Trevor cares about being famous. He wants to make all of the money. He could have sold the licensing or the entire brand to the UFC for an amazing price but he was not willing to do it
yeah it means championship 'fights' rather than 'rounds'. That would be goofy as hell changing gloves in 60 seconds whilst being coached between rounds.
This is not a revolution in safety. That style of glove has been around but the name who owned the patent would not give it up to Dana. Since Dana didn't have the patent he probably made one that is similar. People kept getting poked in the eye and people kept talking about it. That's what made this happen. Also, the gloves became mandatory after the government stepped in and made it mandatory. I do not believe that Dana did this for safety he did it for $$$$.
Two things can be true at once, by adding safety, they have less pokes n breaks. Which allows more fights n fight time making more money. But let all be honest, these arent much different at all from the original
Dear UFC, I am a Neuropsychologist and I am afraid I must inform you that it is very questionable to use differently colored gloves. The more vibrant the color, the more salient the glove, the quicker reaction times could be to said glove. Say one fighter has black gloves while the other has red ones, the fighter with black ones will have an advantage, as he will perceive the red gloves more easily and possibly react quicker to them, than his opponent would to black gloves. Remember when Adesaniya chose NOT to color his hair pink before the costa fight? exact same (very much so justified) reasoning. I know there are different colors in boxing as well, but that does not make it a reasonable change. All the best.
Moot point as fighters will always be wearing the same gloves as there opponent, so it wont be an advantage. The gold gloves if anything will make a championship fight more e entertaining if your observation is correct about reaction times, but again both will have the same gloves on
@@iceKOId It's not really an opinion, nor is it dumb. It's science. Just because everybody does sometthing in a way, does not make it the right way. Besides, it is especially important to take this well documented processing advantage into consideration when designing gloves with the fewest ounces (i.e. the ones ones punches are the fastest with)
Justin and trevor are pissed to hear this
lol they yoinked his “invention”
This comment is strictly for the hardcore.
All that talk and they just made their own gloves
Fuuuu I know
thats how it happens people "look at" what the competition is making and suddenly...
Chris Wideman announces retirement
💀💀💀💀
lmfaooo love this comment instant win
Glad he won via TKO by eye poke before retiring. What a great way to end a career
😅😅
Jon Jones announces retirement as well
these gloves will forever be known as the “weidman gloves”
They had them completed in November of last year.
ya boy jon jones the goat of eye pokes tf???
Nah.
Jones gloves
Lol
24:00 This is where they talk about eye pokes
Lords work. Thank you.
Thank you so much
Spoiler alert 🙄🙄
They literally need to change the gloves more to eliminate them completely...... Its completely unacceptable in 2024 eye pokes are a thing, yes grappling will suffer.... BUT. Eye pokes too......
Thanks. This corporate mess was impossible. "Our journey in the fight glove space...." gtfoh lady.
"36 eye pokes since 2019"
Chris: these are rookie numbers
With the new gloves, automatic point deduction with first eye poke, dq in the second one
❄️
❄️❄️❄️❄️
Jon jones is mad that he won’t be able to poke in the eye anymore
Good one 😐
Jon has 19 fouls and 33 warnings in his career... your comment isn't bad lol
She said "something something into the fight glove space" wtf is this corporate ice block saying?
Yes and she kept referring to glove “technology”. Corporate doof shyte.
Need time stamp for this bot malfunctioning lol
The animatic at the beginning just makes them look like the "ultimate tool for poking eyeballs"!!!
They should've went with Trevor Whiteman gloves. These are great but he been trying for a few years now
Ufc made him an offer but they wanted the patent i believe so he declined
Who tf is Trevor "WHITEMAN"?? 😂😂😂😂
Oh yeah, Trevor Whiteman... that's right

Why is this video 27 minutes long?
so just watch the video without complaining kid . im not done using your mum yet
Bald guy yapping
@OP Rhetorical?
Daniel Cormier be like: “ 👀👀👀 bet I can still eye poke…”
Seems like a ton of money and research to avoid using Trevor Whitman’s gloves that were available ten years ago just because UFC couldn’t profit enough off them.
I wonder if they stole his design........
If Chris Weidman were a glove
“The clarification” 😂
So they did nothing to fix eye pokes. Well done 👍🏿
Wow same gloves new color
Did you miss the entire beginning of this video lol🤷
Clearly didn't take anyting in ...dummy
So you just ignored the whole video lmao
No he watched it. Lol😅
Just another example. Why MMA and UFC are the leader in combat sports. You never see this kind of care and evolution in boxing or kickboxing. I love that they got feedback from the fighters
Rickson Gracie was wearing that at Vale Tudo 94, around the time of UFC 2. Way before they appeared in the UFC.
I still see nothing that says the gloves were designed to reduce eye pokes. They said maybe the reduced eye pokes were a result but he didn't even mention how high the reduction was. Nothing was done to reduce eye pokes.
Trevor fumbled
Bro was stiff armed
Trevor doesn’t have anything special. He copied Pride and the other leagues. UFC was smart
The only way to reduce/stop eye pokes is with severe monetary penalties plus suspensions.
Too many rules in cage fighting already.
Do these gloves prevent eye pokes?
Tldr: they hope so
Nope
Not if Jon Jones is wearing them
absolutly not. cheaters and bad refs will still make it happen over and over
Short answer to save you a lot of video nonsense; No.
they decided that the glove designers couldn’t be a cop or anyone in law enforcement, they needed someone with an open mind.
I think they should use both to gather data
Gonna get a lot more glove holding now that they have an open palm
Oh, not Wittman's. Damn.
First eye poke: point deduction.
Second eye poke: DQ
It still forces the fingers straight out. Whittman's gloves have your fingers in a more curved position which is actually more natural
Last sentence: they will start using them from UFC 302 onwards
When someone knocks out their opponent.some ppl are going to blame the gloves now
“ Championship rounds”are rounds 4 and 5.
The gold gloves for championship fights is sick!
Wow only 30 years and dozens of eyes later.
Watch there be an eye poke in the first fight
Does it help with eye pokes over the older model?
Where can I buy them
tldr: eye pokes may or may not be a thing, just maybe less frequent

I don't see how this helps with the only question we all need answering to... how does this stop eye 👁 pokes??
It doesn't 😂 that's why the fill the video with a bunch of corporate bs
These gloves aren not curved like the Bellator and PFL. Definitely not like Pride either

No more eye poke gloves?
Weidman done his job promoting the New Glove Design 👉👁️
Are these Trevor Whitman gloves? That has been going on for years.
I’ve always said Champs should wear golden gloves on what ever color they want
0:08 That's a nasty eye poke
Sureeeeeeee you did
How do you believe a company that still uses and is affiliated with Prime?
They made 5 versions of the same glove?
but will it stop eye pokes
They should be getting vets to test the gloves.
Why??? So they can punch injured animals?
Hmm... well I guess that's not a terrible idea.
They made this whole video to try to convince people that they didn't just steal Trevors design
Doesn’t look any better to solve eye pokes
Still looks like you can poke an eye
Dana backs Budweiser maybe he should do a limited edition Dylan Mulvaney pair
Steve Wilkos in the UFC glove business?
First up,why don’t you cut your fingernails back and or put an inner glove on the inside of the main glove? That would stop eye injuries because it won’t allow to be abrasive to the eyes.
Sooooooo yall didn’t fix the fingers being able to easily poke eyes like Jon jones.
The stats on Eye pokes per year depends on how often Jon Jones competes
I hope they allowed the actual fighters to try them out lol before releasing them 😂
What they said they tested for months in the contender series???????
@@couchpotato2two7 yea but they didn’t say it in the first 15 seconds so how the hell was Mario supposed to know?

they made the old gloves worse, trevor wittmann has the perfect gloves but ufc is not listening like always.
The should have just paid Trevor already
Wait, are these Wittman's?
No, his are 10x better tho
They should have gone with Trevor Wittman.
