Boxing gloves are cushioned gloves that boxers wear on their hands during boxing matches and practices.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Boxing Rules & Regulations )〕 Unlike the ancient cestus which are designed as a weapon, modern boxing gloves were designed to protect the fighter's hand during a bout, though competitions, sparring and other forms of training has their own specialized gloves.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = All You Need to Know About Boxing Gloves )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Buying Boxing Gloves – 6 Things to Know )〕 While the uses of modern boxing gloves reduces superficial facial injuries, however, as modern boxing gloves has its ability to throw stronger puncher to head without damaging the hands, it would further increase the risk of brain damage for participants.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=British Medical Journal: The Boxing Debate )〕〔Dillner L.

==History==
The use of hand protection in fighting contests undertaken for sport has been known since Ancient Greece. In the 2nd century, Clement of Alexandria invented boxing gloves.〔Ferguson, J. (''Clement of Alexandria'' ). Twayne Publishers, 1974, p. 114. ISBN 9780805722314〕 However, the gloves were very different from those of modern boxing, as was the sport itself. In Ancient Greece, it was common practice to tie strips of rawhide round the hands for protection. In Roman times, this developed into the gladiatorial cestus, with metal added to the gloves to inflict greater damage. The excessive brutality in this sport at that time has caused the boxing to be banned in 393 AD.
Boxing experienced a revival in Britain around the 17th century. Many bouts were fought with bare knuckles and with no standard rules until Jack Broughton introduced boxing rules known as Broughton's Law in the 18th century, where the gloves were used for practice purposes only.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = A BRIEF HISTORY OF BOXING )〕 However, many boxers still chose to fight with bare knuckles until 1867 when gloves were mandated by the Marquess of Queensberry Rules.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = What Weight of Gloves Are Used in a Professional Heavyweight Boxing Match? )〕
Modern boxing gloves started showing up towards end of the 1990s. Over ten years of engineering and testing by some of the biggest boxing manufacturers and sport names have helped create safe, durable and long lasting equipment. Modern boxing gloves include mesh palm, velcro, leather-based stitching, suspension cushioning and new padding for the boxer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Boxing Gloves and its important facts )〕 The UK use AIBA to approve the new design of gloves to coincide with the amount of leather and support boxers can use in fights.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title = Rules of Boxing )〕
