I'm relatively new to MMA and Striking training but I need a groin guard as I've took a few glancing blows to the balls at they gym. Just wondering which style of groing guard work best for MMA. These are what I've seen so far.

Any other suggestions welcome although I'm in the UK so would be ordering from a UK website.
Also looking at the mma sparring gloves and wondering peoples opinions

I have Sandee 16oz gloves and love them so thought I'd stick with Sandee sparring gloves too

Man a cup is essential. Get the shock doctor spandex shorts with the cup pocket. these are real comfortable and it's doesn't move when rolling or sparring. I love mine. THe ones you found are pretty much the same and I'm sure they will work fine. For gloves go with what feels good. If you have the 16 sandee stay with them. I don't think you can order from title but they have decent stuff.

I use the spiderguard compression shorts with the flexible cup and its works great for me so far

I have ordered the Sandee sparring gloves and the badboy compression shorts and cup. Hopefully both will do the job.

Tell me more about that...the only cup I have is a full-MMA style "codpiece" and that's a bit much for day-to-day wear, especially for just rolling.

Looks good to me. Has high reviews on mmawarehouse.
I have the ShockDoctor one, and I notice few issues with it.

Well all I do is BJJ and it really doesn't bother me at all when training when it comes to movement and all that stuff

I looked it up (at first I wasn't finding it because I typed in spiderguard as one word), look perfect for BJJ; a little extra protection without all of the bulk of a traditional cup. I may order one to try it out.

Anybody used the Badboy Sparring gloves? the site I ordered my Sandee gloves from is out of stock and offered these as a replacement.

I was kicked in the groin while wearing the spiderguard cup. Other than the pain, swollen nuts, and not being able to do much for a few days, the spiderguard cup is awesome ... NOT.
