Why Your Grip Is 23% Weaker In Gloves (Fighters Only, issue 222)

Machine score, stored in the name (the site's grip format), not as a lifted load. The article (October 2025 issue) lists pro fighters' grip numbers on a dynamometer next to a study of 14 fighters; 'the numbers' links to a YouTube Short (PbKi9lmwbZU, not opened). Sportskeeda (2024-11-15, https://www.sportskeeda.com/mma/news-who-gonna-tell-stipe-top-ranked-ufc-fighter-reacts-former-heavyweight-champion-attempting-grip-strength-test) reports an ESPN MMA reel of UFC 309 fighters (Chandler, Nickal, Craig, Weidman, Miocic) taking the grip test, with Nickal above Miocic; it gives no numbers. The same four UFC 309 names are in the Fighters Only list, so the test is dated to UFC 309 fight week, November 2024. Hand and device are not stated. The surrounding sentence is 'If you consider the numbers posted by the pros ... Here's how they fared: ... Stipe Miocic (131lb)'. The article does not say whether the pros were tested with or without gloves.
