    Ive got the head guard now, I thought it was dead tight at first, I loosened it up and now im used to it, blocks punches well, Made in China though, the Reebok gloves I bought are made in Pakistan. I should post a new thread about the mouth piece though.

    Glad it's tight as I have a small head haha, don't care where it's made. Whats the chin guard like, dos it protect your nose well, prevent black eyes and is it not sticking out too much?

    I dont know you know, It is tough though, Nylon, Steel not sure. Do you lot want me take photos of it, I dont think the online pictures cover it from angles you might want to see?

    Can anyone recommend a good Headguard for fighting instead of sparring? I use a Top Ten one (for both Sparring and Fighting) but when I tuck my chin, I can barely see a thing, which causes me to lift my head up without thinking!:twisted:

    The green hill ones seem spot on for contests.

    I'll look into that, thanks!:) When I tuck my Chin with the Top Ten headguard on, I could only see my opponent's body, not his head!:nut
