About ViralCombatTV
Our Story
ViralCombatTV exists because most combat sports gear reviews are written by content farms that have never stepped inside a gym. The "best gloves for beginners" articles are rewritten Amazon descriptions, and the training guides are generic fitness content dressed up with MMA keywords. We built the resource we wished existed — gear coverage grounded in what practitioners actually report, and technique guides cross-referenced with credible coaching sources.
Who We Are
We are a small, independent editorial team covering boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, and MMA gear. We publish under a team byline. Our recommendations are compiled from the communities where real practitioners share honest opinions — r/bjj, r/MuayThai, r/amateur_boxing, Sherdog — together with manufacturer specifications and published coaching sources.
How We Research & Review
Every product review and training guide follows our editorial process:
- Community Consensus: We analyze hundreds of posts from Reddit, Sherdog, and martial arts forums to identify what experienced practitioners actually recommend versus what affiliate sites push.
- Spec Verification: We compare manufacturer claims across competing products — glove weight, padding construction, gi fabric GSM, and stitching details — and flag where marketing outruns the spec sheet.
- Durability Signals: We weight long-term owner reports (how a gi shrinks after washing, whether rash guard stitching survives no-gi rolls) far above first-impression reviews.
- Expert Sources: Training technique content references published coaching methodologies, accredited instructor guidelines, and established competition rulesets (IBJJF, WBC, IFMA).
Editorial Independence
No brand has ever paid for a review on this site. We participate in the Amazon Associates Program, earning a small commission when you purchase through our links at no extra cost to you. This commission does not influence our ratings. We have given poor ratings to popular products and recommended lesser-known brands when they outperformed the market leaders.
