Review: 
Up for review are the UFC Double Punch Mitts, these aren't exactly the worse mitts out on the market as I have seen some pretty terrible ones by century, everlast and tapout. I would say these are better than most of the entry level mitts on the market by those brands, however to me they are pricey for an entry level mitt as you can get a decent pair of mitts for $40 and if you catch a sale you can pick up a really nice pair at that price point. These mitts are meant to target the lower end demographic of buyers, meaning perhaps a couple friends whowant to mess around in their back yard or a dad finding something to do with his kids, these aren't made for the amateur fighter or the small gym. Whats interesting is UFC actually has a better looking contoured Mitt set that can be found for $20 to $35 online and looks like a nicer designed mitt none the less a lot of these still look like re-branded century or Everlast products. 
          While I have had a few UFC brand products I liked very much these will not join them on that list while they may get the job done for what they're made to do, there are better options at the price point with better designs. I rate these Mitts 2.5 Fists out of 5.
