Can this also be used for boxing?

Yes. As long as it is filled with enough water or sand. Depends on the height and strength of the child too. Good for learning to move around a target. Enjoy!
319606
Yes. It is made of material that will endure hard punches. You can also set the height.

It could be used for boxing as long as the height is set and not used for power punches.

My grandson is into karate and the reason for purchase. Punching and kicking is all part of it. When you fill the base its pretty firm on floor.

It depends on the use. They would be fine for sparring, but for hitting a heavy bag, no. If you are going to be using a heavy punching bag you want something that completely covers the hand. I used these for a punching bag and my knuckles got torn to shreds.

Yes it can. We use it for weighted balls, too, training to hit the ball harder.

It can be used, but it is not designed for use other than bicycle. I would not use it for other use

My guess would be "Yes" but I have no way of knowing for sure. The more I use the product for sports activity the more I like it.

It would not be as effective. It is used mostly as a smacking defense. There are a few YouTube vids demonstrating on how it works.

I have used this for mostly stick fighting. However, I have done some sparring and contact training with it and it will take a good kick or punch. It offers pretty good protection. Hope this helps!!!

Those type of gloves can be used for sparring, but they have to be 16oz. For competition, you need the lace up's.

We have 2 boxers approx 65 lbs each and it works great so I believe it should. My only issue with it is I wish the wire was a bit thicker ad it tends to break somewhat easy. But I would recommend it.

Probably not. It is elliptical, not round, and it's pretty well the same size along its length. You might be able to wrap some para cord or something around part of it to make it big enough to catch. It really is better designed for its intended purpose than combat.

I bought a small speed bag, but it's still kind of slow. You have to hit it very hard in order for it to move really fast. It's not as great as the ones you would find in a boxing gym. It's ok for a home gym...but definitely not fast enough for a experienced person.

As bag gloves, these would be awful. The weight is across the knuckles and would hurt. They work great for shadow boxing, however.

I would use regular boxing gloves with a wrap for that, don't feel these would be protective enough

I have 2 boxers that use it but they are about 80lbs. Honestly I'm not sure.

Yes it can. That's exactly what we use it for,..indoor volleyball in a gymnasium. We love it!

I would say they are too bulky. My sister has different gloves, I think they are title weighted gloves. Hers are less bulky and may work but I don't think any of these weighted gloves are meant to wear inside real boxing gloves.

I use them as is; without anything else worn inside or outside of the glove. Some people use them inside boxing gloves. However, you will need to go up a size with the boxing glove to accommodate for wearing these inside the glove. There is quite a bit of gel padding on the top and around fingers.
