Have you guys ever watched old school UFCs or Vale Tudo events? Ever notice how the fighters would be punching a guy with his right hand then as the fight progresses he switches hands? Despite what it may look like in the movies, you stand a very good chance of breaking your hand if you punch someone in the face without gloves on. You also increase the chance of cutting your opponent without gloves on. IMO...if you are REALLY training self defense or MMA you are foolish not to use gloves of some kind. Head gear is optional, but I personally am WAY too good looking to get my face all beat up. 
Trivia: Do you know who was the first person in UFC to use gloves? |
Thanks man, the feelings totally mutual. Don't judge us guys!!! we just like going to the spa and drinking mimosas, is that so wrong
Damn you've stumped me, there was that boxing guy in UFC 1 that wore one 12oz glove but, I don't remember who first wore grappling gloves. Dan Sevran maybe?
